Dear brother in Christ

Again I write to you with a gentle loving heart but a rebuke from sadness.  Again you complain of your wife- Charles- she isn't called to be a watcher- it's not something you can force- my advice is to cease talking about these things with her and text messages because they will be having the opposite effect of your good intentions.
Simply love her and discuss normal and pleasant things with her- you'll be rewarded by a more loving wife.

 I strongly recommend you read "I give you authority" by Charles Kraft where he explains the authority a husband has to pray for sanctification or healing of his wife.

I'm doing my best to gently guide you as I believe with all my heart you're driving your wife away - it CAN'T be forced. Try to put yourself in her position and see what it makes you feel like to constantly hear what she perceives as doomsday talk. We are told to think on all that is good, noble, beautiful and pure- these are things you can and should  talk with your wife about.- yes even planning vacations.

For your other thoughts you have the fellowship here to air them freely.
I know you love your wife so demonstrate that love by backing off on what she doesn't want to hear- the Lord will sort everything out perfectly.
I'm sorry if this is harsh- but as a woman I know how she feels- please heed the advice which I've prayed over also.

One further request- would you paragraph your posts? -  as they become hard to read otherwise.
Sent in sisterly love,
