Inspira Ministry that Inspires Restoration

Hi we are Daniel and Beverly  a marriage that has been together since January of 2006 and later got married on June 20 of 2009. We have two beautiful kids along with a great life that was not always this way. Since the beginning we took matters into our own hands. We both had great jobs and a career that kept us comfortable, busy and distracted in which we hindered God to be the center in our lives. 

Let me tell you briefly about our story: Beverly was my market trainer while working for the same company. We started to date and finally after 3 months we became boyfriend and girlfriend. You would think that in the beginning we would have a honeymoon stage but that was not the case for us. We both had brought with us our past experience from our previous relationships. So pretty much we didn’t really trust each other to give the love and respect that was required to make our relationship work as we were too busy trying to protect our hearts. This was the cause of our relationship being on and off and even in most parts of our marriage because of the insecurities. 

Beverly had the fear of being abandoned and I had the fear of not being loved. We expected that once we got married each of these requirements would be the “other person’s” responsibilities to fulfill. Emptiness’s we found out later we both had in our hearts.

We had a lot of fights and arguments throughout our relationship. We separated many times before and during our marriage. 

Every time we were restored in our marriage we would separate again and again never really understanding why this kept happening.  Until we hit rock bottom!  Finally we understood!  It was because we never really trusted God and we always put matters in our own hands. 

We both had gone through so much counseling, from pastors, leaders to even professional help and they all gave up on us. They said that we had no hope in our marriage. The last time we were separated we were apart for 14 months. At this time I was with another person while Beverly was standing for our marriage. 

Beverly was feeling distressed and found a couple of ministries online that gave her hope in her marriage. That’s when she found God truly and realized that only God could restore our wounded hearts and marriage. 

While she found marriage restoration ministries that helped her she also contributed back to these. She realized that she wanted to help other woman even before her own marriage was not restored yet. She felt in her heart that she needed to use her talents that God had given her to be an inspiration to those who were going through a marriage crisis as she knew the pain. Once she hit rock bottom she realized that she was more sensitive to Gods words and she could feel Gods direction for her life. God told her that her marriage would be restored and gave her many promises she could wait and find hope on. She learned about spiritual warfare that the devil attacked her marriage to break her down to get to our kids. That the devil had deceived her husband making him believe that the grass was greener on the other side.  Through God’s grace and through the many prayers and support of those who walked with Beverly while she was serving in many ministries our marriage was restored. One marriage that looked hopeless but not for a God who is the expert on impossible situations. God is God of miracles and wonders. God called me to go back to my family and to start a ministry, which is now Inspira (Inspire). God wanted for us to share our testimony to be an inspiration and to give hope to others who are in a marriage crisis, like when we most needed and obtained it. 

God had restored our marriage for good this time and not just a temporary fix like we had tried on our own strength. It is permanent because this time we both learned that this is Gods will and calling for us to serve in His restoration ministry. 

Since I have been back we have been working through our marriage fully understanding that the devil wants to destroy our family, however now that we submit to God we will never give what the devil wants. As the head of the house it is my responsibility to lead my family as the spiritual leader and to protect them from evil. As husbands we have a tremendous responsibility given by God who will ask what you have done with the family He gave you. What would you say? Remember how God went to Adam and not Eve when she ate from the forbidden fruit? It was because it was Adam’s responsibility to lead her. The glory be to God who called me back to my family and gave us the honey moon stage that we never had since the beginning. God is a God of wonders who is fully compromised with us in the battle to restore marriages around the world.
