Broken wife, and kids. Broken home and hearts.

I am separated and just filed for divorce after 20 years of marriage. It wasn't at all what I wanted I truly was left with no choice. My husband began traveling the wrong path and I just couldn't follow him. Where he is choosing to go leads to death and destruction.

We are just headed in two different directions. I choose a closer walk with God while he drifts further away. He started drinking and being a real bully. Raging all the time and scaring our kids and making them feel like they had to protect me from him.

No child should ever feel more unsafe in their own home then on the streets and no child should ever have to feel like they have to protect their mother from their own father. I had to draw the line.

He also began to lose jobs and was unfaithful. Even though I left the marriage, he now wants absolutely nothing to do with his kids. That hurts the most. Watching them cry all the time and having them ask me why he doesn't care anymore?

It's gut wrenching pain for me to see them hurting like this. He is still damaging them and he isn't even here. How do you just stop caring about your own kids? It's just beyond my ability to ever understand.

I stayed at home to care for our kids while we were married. I just need provision from God to support my kids and not end up homeless. I just need a job. It's my only hope to make it without him.

Things are getting really hard financially. I will do whatever is offered. I would scrub floors with a toothbrush if it was an option. I just need an open door. Please pray that I find a way to provide for what's left of my family.

I love my husband and ask for prayer that his eyes are opened to what he is losing and to the schemes of the enemy who wants nothing more than to destroy him and wanted our family broken. I ask that you please pray God's voice is louder than the devil's in his life.

Please. please. please. Pray that my kids and I have what we need to survive and that I am blessed with employment. I just need an open door. I will do whatever it takes to make sure they are provided for.

We are so heartbroken at how he has changed he is comfortably numb in his daily drunken stupors seemingly feeling nothing while we are raw and facing this all with nothing, but faith, and prayer. I ask that you pray if my marriage can be restored... that it is, and if it cannot, that God comfort my children and I and that He helps us accept this and move on. I ask that you pray he heals our brokenness and makes us whole again whether or not the marriage is restored.

I want his will in my life not my own and at this point, I don't know what that is anymore. I feel so isolated, so very heartbroken, and alone. Your prayers would mean absolutely everything to me and my kids. Please pray for us. I have held on by a thread. Mustard seed is all I need right? I have had at least that, but I am losing hope now and need your help. Please!
 
When we cry God weeps. He does. Ask Him to be the head of your house. He won't fail you. Ask Him to lead while your husband can't. And remember ALL things work together for those who live God. Eventually. Sooner or later. This experience will grow your faith & the children watching you. In Jesus name I pray. Amen
 
God will comfort and keep you my dear because he loves you.  I am saying a prayer for you right now.  May God bless you abundantly. In Jesus name. Amen.
 
Lord You hear the cry of our hearts and know our thoughts before they come in being. Lord I ask in Jesus name that You'd act on this persons behalf and answer their prayer! Thank you for Your faithfulness. Amen.
 
Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
