My situation looked hopeless. After six years of marriage, my wife had finally given up on our marriage. She said she didn't love me any more, nor did she want to be married to me any longer.

My situasie het hopeloos gelyk. Na ses jaar van huwelik, het my vrou finaal opgegee op ons huwelik. Sy het gesê dat sy my nie meer liefhet nie, nog minder wou sy langer met my getroud wees.

Her thoughts were that she had gotten married too early.

Haar gedagtes was dat sy te vroeg getroud is.

She left me and rented an apartment and simply moved on. I heard through a friend about Restore Ministries and I got the books and studied God's promises. I had several friends praying for my wife and me. Within three weeks, God softened my wife's heart and she came back home!

Sy het my verlaat en ‘n woonstel gehuur en eenvoudig aan beweeg. Ek het deur ‘n vriend van Herstel Bediening gehoor en het die boeke gekry en God se beloftes studeer. Ek het etlike vriende gehad wat vir my vrou en my gebid het. Binnne drie weke, het God my vrou se hart versag en sy het terug gekom huis toe!

We are building a new marriage now—not like before. I have decided to follow God's Word and treat her as a wife should be treated. She is already responding with joy.

Ons is besig om nou ‘n nuwe huwelik te bou—nie soos voorheen. Ek het besluit om God se Woord te volg en haar te behandel soos wat ‘n vrou behandel moet word. Sy reageer alreeds met blydskap.

God's Word truly stands the test of time. The question is, will we do it God's way or ours? I just praise the Lord for His eternal truths and promises that we can stand on in a world where

God se Woord is tydloos. Die vraag is, sal ons dit op God se manier doen of ons sin? Ek loof God net vir Sy ewige waarheid en beloftes waarop ons kan staan in ‘n wêreld waar

everything changes except God and His Word! Thank You, Jesus!

alles verander behalwe God en Sy Woord! Dankie, Jesus!

Pastor Blessed with Restored Marriage!!
Pastoor Geseën met ‘n Herstelde Huwelik!

A pastor contacted RMI for help. His wife had recently left him. She simply said that she didn’t love him anymore. Of course, he was very distraught so he ordered How God Will Restore Your Marriage for men and the men’s manual A Wise Man. He said he studied and pored over the material again and again. He contacted Encouraging Men several times for support and guidance, but we continued to encouraged him to get what He needed from the Lord. Then then we stopped hearing from him, and after several months we got the news—his marriage had been restored!! Hallelujah!!!

‘n Pastoor het RMI om hulp gekontak. Sy vrou het hom onlangs verlaat. Sy het eenvoudig gesê dat sy nie meer lief is vir hom nie. Natuurlik, was hy baie ontsteld toe bestel hy die Hoe God Jou Huwelik Sal Herstel vir mans en die mans se handleiding ‘n Wyse Man. Hy het gesê dat hy die materiaal en bestudeer het en homself weer en weer oor die inhoud oorgiet het. Hy het Bemoedigende Mans verskeie kere gekontak vir ondersteuning en leiding, maar ons het hom aanhoudend aangemoedig om dit wat hy nodig gehad het van die Here af te kry. Toe het ons opgehou om van hom te hoor, en na verskeie maande het ons die nuus gekry—sy huwelik is herstel!!Hallelujah!!!

He said that his wife had returned home several months earlier (probably when he stopped contacting our ministry), but he was so caught up in his new life with his wife that he had failed to contact us!

Hy het gesê dat sy vrou etlike maande vroeër terug gekeer het huis toe (seker toe hy opgehou het om ons bediening te kontak), maar hy was so opgevang in sy nuwe lewe met sy vrou dat hy misluk het om ons te kontak!

What was such a surprise was that his wife was so pleased with the ministry that she was who we saw order cases of books and workbooks for women regularly! Pastor Joseph said he and his wife use our materials to help other couples in crisis and to use in their Sunday school classes. When his wife orders, she often sends a note. The most recent simply said, “Praise God for your ministry!” So that's when we realized it was Pastor Joseph's wife and each time she orders we're doubly blessed!

Wat so ‘n verrassing was was dat sy vrou so tevrede was met die bediening dat sy die een was wat ons gesien het gereeld kaste boeke en werksboeke bestel vir vrouens! Pastoor Joseph het gesê hy en sy vrou gebruik ons hulpbronne om ander paartjies in krisis te help en te gebruik in hulle Sondagskool klasse. Wanneer sy vrou bestel, stuur sy dikwels ‘n nota. Die mees onlangs het eenvoudig gesê, “Loof God vir jou bediening!” So dit is toe ons besef het dat dit Pastoor Joseph se vrou was en elke keer wat sy bestel is ons dubbeld geseën!
