Marriage Restored, Husband Quit Smoking, Gambling And Alcohol
I got married and had kids at a young age. When I got older, I tried my best to keep my life in order. I attended a church, stayed true to my husband and worked hard. Yet, my life was still a mess because I believed I was in and out of fellowship with God.
My husband was a womanizer, heavy smoker, gambler, drug addict and an alcoholic. To keep him away from drugs, I sent him to work in Singapore. I eventually joined him to earn money to clear my debts. In Singapore, I found out that he was in huge debt, still an alcoholic, and had a few girlfriends. I felt that he only wanted me to help pay his debt and it was not worthwhile to remain faithful. I started an online chat relationship that led to an affair. I felt wanted again but it just didn’t feel right.
Devastated, I cried out to God. Then, I remembered that my pastor in the Philippines had mentioned New Creation Church. So, I attended a service with my husband and I cried throughout the sermon. Pastor Prince shared how Jesus loved the woman caught in adultery unconditionally, giving her the gift of no condemnation to empower her to stop sinning. It was the first time I heard about a God who doesn’t condemn me.
I kept returning to New Creation Church, with or without my husband. I also listened to Pastor Prince’s sermons on my way to and from work. Finally, my affair ended. Jesus turned the water into wine in my marriage and I now love my husband even more than before, and my husband also loves me. He has quit smoking, gambling and drinking. We believe his debt cancellation is also on the way, in Jesus’ name!
I’m now so in love with Jesus and feel comfortable in His presence, whether I’ve done good or not. And I’m seeing more right living in my life now. I’m more honest and loving. I don’t boast in myself, but I boast in what the Lord has done in me. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for being faithful in preaching the truth. And thank You, Lord Jesus, for loving me.
