My wife and I

[Bruno]

Satan keeps attacking me with many fiery arrows, most often through my wife to try and make me want to give up on her. I know that our marriage is consecrated by God, not man, and I take it VERY seriously. I do not want my children to grow up in a broken family, as I've seen the horrible and long lasting effects this has on people. I refuse to sign my beloved, God-given wife away like a piece of useless, replacable property, which is what Satan wants me to view her as. He knows us very well and this kind of warfare has been his well refined specialty for thousands of years. He calculates where to strike, so the pain is most excruciating and causes effective damage. He is pulling my wife back into the world and using other people who have influence over her, to draw us further apart. He knows what we hold closest to our hearts and as long as it is something God wants us to have, Satan will do whatever he can to take it away and vice versa. He may not be able to kill us, but if he can disable us by inflicting enough damage, it is the next best thing, considering this can make us an ineffective servant and witness of God.

Please pray that I focus on the Truth and don’t give in to Satan’s many lies, as he is trying to hide in this and wants me to get bitter, hateful and vengeful against people he is using as his puppets. Satan knows if he can get me to turn against my wife, my prayers will be hindered and many people will get hurt as a result. Even more importantly, if I give up on her, I might as well give up on God, considering He is the one that gave her to me, consecrated our marriage and blessed us together with daughters. I must remember that my wife is a victim in this situation and that she is a prisoner of the enemy. She has been effectively deceived and seduced by the world. It is Satan and his followers who are doing everything they can to destroy what God has put together and to smear Jesus’ image and redemptive plan before the lost.

Please pray for Jennifer, that her eyes and heart are opened to God's Truth and that He breaks the heavy bonds Satan and the world have chained her with.

Although having the most important and beloved person in my life used against me is indescribably painful, I am thankful that God has used His Word, the Holy Spirit and His church to explain to me what the purpose of all this is, so I am not in confusion and my heart is comforted. I understand that God's people must endure many trials and tribulations and that is for their and other's benefit. I have not come across a true prophet of God throughout the Bible, that had an easy, painless life. It makes sense that the enemy would focus on people who present the most threat to his plans.
One of the greatest blessings that came out of this is the fact that God has finally placed me in a True Church of Jesus. I searched for years after a scriptural Church and am surprised and saddened just how difficult it is to find one that truly trusts the Word of God and where Jesus, not man, or organization, is the head. He surrounded me with godly, born again Christians who work hard to place Jesus before self, thus I have been growing and learning much.
God is using these difficult trials to help me trust Him to mold this wicked sinner into a man He planned for me to become since He first thought of me and I thank and praise Him for it…


“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose.” (Romans 8:28)

How do we know that we love God?

Jesus tells us in John 14: "If ye love me, keep my commandments." and again "If a man love me, he will keep my words."

Please pray that i DO NOT compromise on this. That God ALWAYS comes first, not i. HE must increase, but i must decrease!

To let you know, we are still praying for your wife. Are things looking upward?

Even if they're not just remember God is on your side. Stay faithful to Him.

Thank you. Things don't appear better between us, however, I continue to trust God that He will use this for good, to grow us into who He envisioned us to be since the beginning. Suffering is not pleasant at its time, yet when approached right, it yields great fruit. 3 years later, it does not hurt less to be apart, yet God has strengthened me and taught me much over the years. I have so much to be thankful for.
