Warrior P,
Wow that was powerful stuff. I could feel electricity coursing through me, restoring my faith in standing. I will pray for God to find and return my lost sheep whole and complete.
Kind regards

Ditto. Let me preface by saying that I just now realized something that I will get to later, but it has to do with the number 3 and what happened to me after I read that post.
Before I registered on this site and did any real research about MLC, that post was what turned me around. I was ready to give up and throw in the towel. Then one morning I turned on my ipad and that post was on the screen staring me right in the face. Honestly I don't know how that happened as I ALWAYS close every application after use and take it back to the home screen. I believe God intervened and had me read it. I put my ring back on and sent my w a text telling her that I was sorry for whatever I had done to her that made her so upset and that I was grateful for the time that we had together and that I would cherish it forever. It was at that moment I decided to stand. I didn't expect a response as she had not responded to any text I had sent her up to that point so I took a nap. When I woke (5 hours later), I started to feel kinda dumb that I got so psyched up and was about to take my ring back off. I mean who was I kidding right? I had just found out about another man she had been seeing (who is young enough to be her son btw). And then a miracle happened, she replied to the text! I know that this may not sound like a miracle to you, but trust me, it was. God most definitely had his hand in this; not only did she respond, but her response was over 5 hours later at THE EXACT moment I was about ready to give up again. I will call this sign number one.
The next day in church someone spoke in tongues. I never really believed in that stuff before, but it is supposed to be a message from God. Someone speaks, and then someone else interprets the message. Like I said, I never believed in it before, but that day it was different. Someone spoke and what seemed like several minutes passed before an interpretation finally came. I don't remember the exact words, but it was something like "Worry not, I hear your prayer and I will answer it. Don't be discouraged, but trust in me and I will take care of you". I started crying; I was sure that the message was for me (others could have been included, but I'm positive that I was one of them). Sign number two
I was supposed to get the boys that afternoon and knew that they were with my w's mom because she went out of town to some fitness competition with a friend of hers. I called her mom around 2pm and asked if I could go ahead and get them because I wasn't sure what time w would be back (she was 6 hours away). She said that they were at the store and that I could get back with her later. I thought this was strange coming from her; normally she would say "ok, at the store now, be home in a bit" or something like that. I waited a few hours and called again around 5pm. She once again put me off. This time she made it a bit more clear; she said that she "thinks w wants to bring them to me". "Wow, ok this is a first" I thought to myself. A couple more hours went by and the phone rang. It was her calling to say that she was on the way. A phone call from her at this point was unprecedented. A text could have relayed that message to me, but she chose to call. She then began talking about her weekend at the fitness competition. Very strange behavior, but something in my head (God's voice perhaps?) told me to listen; so I did. It was just small talk really, but it felt good; like the old days when I couldn't get her to stop talking about her day at work or whatever even if I wanted to! It made me realize that she hadn't talked to me like that in at least a year. "Why is she doing this" I thought. I can only explain it as sign number 3.
I believe that God gave me these signs to show me that he is there for me and that I should not give up. This will all work out in the end because he is working all things together for my good.
As I am sure you may know; the number 3 is significant for several reasons. A quick google search will get you these:
The Trinity (Godhead) is 3 in one
Peter denies knowing Jesus 3 times and later says he loves him 3 times
Jesus rose on the 3rd day
"holy, holy, holy" is the Lord God Almighty (Isaih 6:3 and Revelation 4:8 )
Of the 12 Apostles, Jesus loved 3 more than the rest (Peter, John and James)
Samuel is called by the Lord 3 times before he realizes it and answers
Satan tempts Jesus 3 times before giving up
It is on the 3rd day that the creation of the Earth is made
The placard on the cross is written in 3 languages
Jesus raised 3 people from the dead
I could go on, but I'll stop there. I have faith in God that he will restore our marriage! I felt like I had to share this with the rest of you. I know that it isn't exactly a reconciliation story, but it was inspired by one. God will help us all if we just believe in him.
