Confessing to your Spouse

I recently set in the car with my wife and poured out my sins and just confessed how disgusting and weak my flesh is and expressed my inner self to her.  No, I wasn't trying to make her run for the hills, but yes, I was very scared.  Only God knows the inner me and my struggles and how weak my flesh is, but I understand in marriage we are one, and my sins were affecting her just as much as myself. She was upset but she seemed to appreciate that I loved her and I wanted God to be center of our relationship and I know that I needed to be open and honest with her and ask for her forgiveness just as I asked God.  She proceeded to confide in me her struggles and it just opened up a great conversation. When God is at the center of our relationship we can't fail each other, we grow closer, we appreciate each other more and we receive the blessings of God in our marriage.  I didn't know my wife's struggles and I never asked here where she was at with the Lord, this isn't God's plan for marriage.  Thank you Lord for your plan of marriage and for my beautiful wife that you have given to me to merge together as one heart seeking your kingdom above all things.
