Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight .

The Holy God

If you want to have a happy family, read dialogue below, but don’t practice on.

Before Marriage

Man: Finally, I have waited this time since along time ago.

Woman: Are you willing if I will go?

Man: Oh, sure not! Don’t think like that.

Woman: Do you love me?

Man: Sure! It will be forever.

Woman: Are you dating with another women?

Man: No! I shall not do that worst thing.

Woman: Would you kiss me?

Man: Yes.

Woman: Honey…

After Marriage

Read the dialogue above from below.

We live in a sexually-saturated culture. Everywhere, we’re bombarded with risque images. So-called “sex appeal” is used to market everything from cereal to perfume to automobiles.

Most of the time, we can ignore these examples of the ways humans have perverted God’s holy gift. Sometimes, though, the problem hits close to home.

Learning that your husband is involved with pornography or some other kind of sexual sin is devastating. It rocks the foundation of a marriage. It shatters trust. It generates a host of painful feelings: shock, anger, fear, and sadness.

What do you do? Where do you turn for help?

If you’re faced with your husband’s inappropriate sexual behavior, you are not alone. Hundreds of thousands of men in this country — including Christians — struggle with sexual sin. Experts estimate as much as 6-10 % of the adult population is sexually addicted. Conservatively, around 50 percent of men admit to viewing online pornography. The Church is not immune. A survey of attendees at Promise Keepers events revealed that 2/3 had been or were involved with pornography. Christianity Today reported that a survey of Christian pastors revealed 1/3 were involved with online pornography. Because of the availability, anonymity, and affordability of the Internet, sexual addiction has become the addiction of choice among many Christians.

You should know that there is reason for hope. Your husband can achieve and maintain sexual integrity. He doesn’t have to remain enslaved. Help is available. If he chooses, he can take advantage of tools that will help him guard his heart and change his behavior. I know this to be true. I was addicted to pornography, and by the grace of God and much hard work, I have been free for over 15 years.

As distressing as this may be, it can also be the beginning of a journey into the intimate marriage you’ve always wanted. Remember, pinpointing the problem is the first step to finding a solution.

If your husband has been acting out sexually, he’s obviously been impaired, as the spiritual partner God wants him to be. Jesus is clear that even thinking inappropriate sexual thoughts is adultery (Matthew 5). Addressing this secret in his life can remove the barriers to intimacy between you.

My wife and I have experienced new levels of intimacy that we never dreamed possible. We’ve also worked with hundreds of couples who have grown from the brokenness of sexual sin into a relationship blessed by honesty, vulnerability and genuine connection.

Consider getting help for yourself, even if your husband is not willing to pursue help personally. You can enter recovery, regardless of his choices. The first step is to realize that the problem is not about you, your personality, your appearance or your sexual availability. We have worked with wives who were fashion models and Hollywood actresses, and their husbands were sexually unfaithful.

The next step is to realize that you are totally powerless over your spouse’s sexual sin. You are the only person you can change. You can’t change your husband, but you can learn how to set appropriate boundaries against inappropriate and sinful behavior. You can choose to take actions that are helpful for yourself and your marriage. You can find support and fellowship with others who are on a similar journey. You can rest in God’s faithfulness to provide for your needs.

A variety of good resources are available for the escalating problem of pornography. Learn all you can about sexual addiction and the recovery process. Take advantage of programs that assist spouses of addicts. Break the silence and ask for help today.

1. You must “connect” with the children at their point of emotional need. Remarriage is a challenge for everyone, but especially the children. For most children, their parent’s decision to remarry represents the loss of the dream that their biological parents will reunite. Even children whose parents had a terrible relationship have the fantasy that someday everyone will be happy. The grief associated with this loss is painful and can last a long time.

2. Encourage your children to talk about their feelings. You may not like everything you hear, but your children need a safe and nurturing environment to respectfully share their emotions. The best way to encourage your children to open up is to set the example. When you are transparent about your feelings you foster the security and trust they long for.

3. Have realistic expectations. Getting to know each other will take time. You will not experience instant intimacy, trust and respect. The expectation of quickly becoming “one big happy family” will set you up for disappointment every time. Hope deferred makes the heart sick? Prov. 13:12.

4. Establish new family traditions and rituals. Every family needs to develop its own culture. By establishing traditions and rituals for your new family you provide a greater sense of belonging for everyone involved. Including the children in the process will increase their level of support and cooperation.

5. Be sensitive to traditions that have already been established in your child’s life, even if they don’t include you. If your child has always visited their grandparents for a week during the summer or spent Christmas Eve with their non-custodial parent, don’t suddenly change those traditions. The resentment your child may feel could undermine all your efforts to create new, positive memories.

6. Don’t trash your child’s other biological parent. By showing respect and civility to the other biological parent you minimize conflict and actually strengthen your relationship with your children. As bad as some situations can get, control your feelings and comments. So then, let us pursue the things which make for peace and the building up of one another. Romans 14:19.

7. The marriage relationship must be a priority. Every successful blended family has one common characteristic – a strong bond between the husband and wife. Couples in blended families have incredible distractions in their lives compared to most first marriages. Ex-spouses, in-laws, financial obligations, new schools and new homes can rock the foundation of the marriage.

8. Parents must clearly define and consistently follow through with rules for discipline. Many stepparents tend to be too lenient with their new stepchildren in hopes of winning their acceptance and approval. This approach never works. All children need and expect to have boundaries in place, and consistent discipline is one of the most effective and powerful ways of communicating love and respect.

9. Both parents must be involved in establishing the rules for discipline. Parents must always present a unified front when enforcing the rules. Children are very smart and will try to figure out how to play their parents against one another. Parents who don’t allow their unity to be broken are much more likely to gain respect and obedience from their children.

10. Place God in the center of your home. The ultimate key to every family’s success, no matter what the circumstances are, is choosing to make God the centerpiece of your home. To be the kind of parent or spouse you want to be requires wisdom, patience and love. The best way for you to develop these character traits is to have a vibrant relationship with God. But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness and all these things shall be added to you. Matt. 6:33
