Unequally Yoked Marriage

When I married my husband 16 years ago, I was a church-going person but had not really ever read the Bible and was not born again. (I was raised Catholic and eventually attended a Lutheran church as a young adult.) Now that I have been born again, I'm troubled by my marriage since my husband is an atheist. I'm raising my two children to love the Lord and my husband does not object. He is very careful never to say anything that contradicts what they are learning about God. He's also a very wonderful person, a great husband, and a super dad. But.... it's hard for me to live my life like as a believer when he is not one.

My question is this: Does God have a life plan for those who are not saved? If not, then how can He have a plan for me when I am married to an unbeliever? Does God work in your life before you are saved?

Also, I am asking for prayers that God will be able to soften my husband's heart toward Him so that he may come to know Him.

Thank you so much...
