My husband of 26 years is deployed to Afghanistan. I lost my good marketing job a few weeks ago when the company closed down. My husband sent me an email telling me he wants a divorce because he can't handle being in debt when I don't have a job. Our marriage clearly has not been Christ-centered. I grew up in a Christian home, but didn't follow God's word when I chose to marry my husband who was not a Christian. I praise God this trial is upon me because I have renewed my faith and for the first time, I am praising God and thanking him for his word. We have just moved to a new state for his job. He is in the reserves and was tapped to go to Afghanistan. I am alone. I don't know anyone. My children are away at college. Pray for a spiritual warrior to come into my life. Pray that I will be guided to a church where i can worship among new friends who will help me get through this hard time. Pray that I will find a job where my performance will bring glory to God. Lastly, pray for my husband. I'm devastated. Our marriage has been good and I praise God it lasted 26 years. I pray for healing in my marriage and mercy in my soul. I pray for patience to wait on the Lord and not to control all things by myself. We aren't young anymore. I'm filled with regret for not serving the Lord in my younger years. I love my husband dearly and I know he is going through a hard time both physically and mentally in Afghanistan. Please join me in earnest prayer for God to heal our marriage and put Him at the center. I'm getting weary. I can't sleep and I can't eat. Please lift me up in the name of Jesus Christ.
