hare krishna to all devotees
my home is my temple,i do seva of radha krishnaji and ladoo gopal ji in my home,daily i give them a bath,change their clothes and offer everytime meal to them at night i sing shayan aarti also,and never let them alone in house,if we go somewhere for 2 or 3 days,i give seva of my dieties to my frnds really i feel very much happiness in doing this seva of dieties,even i talk with my thakurji,share all my feelings with Him,if i get angry,happy,sad anything ,i share all my emotions with Him, but i get afraid from only one thing,my husband also love lord Krishna a lot,he is such a nice human being,very helpful but he drinks ,not at home but outside, i try to convince him to leave this but he cannot leave this , i get afraid sometime that lord krishna would definitely get angry with us, because many problems are coming in our life ,we both are happy but sometimes i feel all this happens because of drinking habit of my husband,am i right or not?
Time
Hari Bol Mataji
I know it is difficult. Personally I also went through a traumatic time in my life. Before coming to Krishna Consciousness, I had a very difficult past. I committed many sinful activities, too many to mention. Recently I had a relapse(which means I went back to my old habits). I also thought Krsna was not going to forgive me, but He did. Remember Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu Incarnation of the Lord is most merciful especially His Most Confidential Associate SRI Nithyananda Prabhu. So Mataji, Please continue in your service to your Deities and Lord Krsna will definately remove your obstacles. Please do not become despondant about your Prabhu. If you continue leading by example, The Lord will Open your way. The other advise, is that you ask your Prabhu to go with you for service and for him to get Sadhu Sanga. Invite devotees to have Nama Hatta, have nice kirtan, have nice discourse at your home, it will increase your Prabhu's feelings towards devotees. I hope I have helped in some way. Hare Krsna

perfect reply, yes please give your husband lots of opportunities for association with practicing devotees.
alcohol
Alcohol is a very powerful drug
Perhaps the best thing is association with good devotees whenever you can. Also perhaps you can collect some information about the damage that alcohol consumption causes.recently the Australian goverment announced that more than two standard servings of alcohol a day is abuse of this drug which leads to many different health problems. If your husband reads about this it may help him find a reason to consider giving it up.
A freind who gave up cigarettes counted how much money would go up in smoke each year and that was enough for them to give up after a while of trying to stop.
I think for each person there is there own way to stop it is a matter of trying.
If my wife asked me to stop doing something, and to stop just for her, I would put serious effort into stopping. That would work for me. Consider what might work for him as you know him better than us.
I hope you get some more suggestions so you have a few to give you something to think about and hopefully a helping hand
Hare Krishna
Don't hit him with everything all at once slow and easy.
