With all that is going on in the world today, it is so easy to get discouraged. Throwing in the towel and giving up seems the easiest thing to do. I encourage (as I encourage myself), don’t give up. Ask the Savior to help you.
When it seems like the storm you’re going through is a category 5 hurricane, ask the Savior to help you.
When traveling through the valley and you just can’t take another step, ask the Savior to help you.
When your bills outweigh your money, ask the Savior to help you.
When sickness racks your body and relief seems nowhere to be found, ask the Savior to help you.
When people disappoint you, hurt you and use you, ask the Savior to help you.
When life just seems too much to bear, ask the Savior to help you.
No matter what you are going through, there is no sickness God can’t heal, no pain He can’t soothe, and no problem He can’t solve. We just need to call upon Him.
I think these words from Yield Not to Temptation sum it all up nicely:
Ask the Savior to help you,
Comfort, strengthen and keep you;
He is willing to aid you,
He will carry you through.
To Him that o’ercometh, God giveth a crown,
Through faith we will conquer, though often cast down;
He who is our Savior, our strength will renew;
Look ever to Jesus, He’ll carry you through.
I need help in over coming an affair that my husband just confessed to after 28 years of marriage. I love him very much and trying to pray about this and not be vindictive towards him. Also, afetr this he has had bad depression and anxiety issues in which medical intervention had to take place with him.
I have demanded that we get help spiritually,
and marrital counseling. If this marriage is to stay together.
Please give me some feed back.

Ayesha, the only advice I can give you is to seek God in this situation. That is the only answer. Counseling is also a good idea, if he is agreeable to it.
