My wife and I made the agreement to turn off all news, social media, and any outside consumption of COVID info for 2 weeks and possibly indefinitely. In some way, it is sad that because of this, I won't be lurking GAW--I'm not much of a poster but felt included via the lurking and upvoting over the past 9 months. I'm confident that this is the right decision.
I would appreciate your prayers for me and my marriage. My wife literally thinks I am insane, deluded to follow after Satan and the thought of divorce is crossing her mind. She has admitted to thinking of me in contempt and that our marriage is dead. I believe God lifted the veil over my eyes briefly and I saw a glimpse of His work and plan. I am convinced with every bone in my body that COVID and these mandates have the spirit of antichrist/satan behind them. My wife is pro-mandates, pro-vax, trusts gov't, pro-mask our 5 year old. I guess you can see we're at opposite ends.
Please pray for me and my marriage. Pray for me to truly have discernment and wisdom from God. I truly want to know if COVID and these mandates DO NOT have the spirit of antichrist/satan behind them. I want to know where I am wrong in any of my beliefs that are causing contention. Please also pray that if there are any evil spiritual forces acting upon me, my wife, my son and my marriage--that they be totally subdued in Jesus' name. I really want God to show me a sign that what I have awakened to is true and I really want my wife to be with me.
We're doing all we can.. counselling, pastors, marriage course, agreements in communication. I want this movie to end, but I also know.. letting it play out will be even GREATER!
I'll probably read comments to this post one last time tonight and afterwards lurk https://communities.win/c/Christianity/
Bye frens for now. See you later or in glory! Hope it's not long. From Canada.
I had similar in May 2020. Caught wife on the phone describing me as full of bullshit. I said "please just bear with me, all these people are going to be arrested for what they are doing and have done"
I stopped mentioning anything. I think she went away, did some research herself, to prove me wrong. Without any intervention from me she redpilled herself and now runs a popular IG account redpilling others. She now meets people offline who are redpilled locally. She complains now she is estranged from her own friends, ultimately she apologized for her prior attitude. She is a bigger fighter than me now. It took about 6 months to turn around.
Contempt is the leading indicator of divorce, so I was worried.. When couple express contempt there is a long way back. I would say, just let her discover for herself, and avoid any flashpoints and arguments with understanding (without surrender). Good luck.
Wow, what an amazing testimony! Thanks for sharing.
