Father,
We ask that You would come alongside James and his wife. Touch their hearts and help them to see Your love and Your light. You know the troubles that their marriage is having, Lord, and You know the desires that they are having to run from the problems rather than run to You and fix those problems. Lord, we ask that they would find strength in You, and that they would find a way to counseling with a God-fearing counselor. We pray that the counselor they find would be loving and patient to help them work through the hurt and distance that they feel and help bring them back home, back to the love of their home and the love of Your heart. Light their path and show them the plans that You have for them, Father. We know that Your love is a perfect and pure love, Lord, and that Your love will not let them go, no matter how hard it might seem for James and his wife to continue to love one another at this moment. Guide them. Hold them by the hand and help them to crawl when they cannot walk. When they cannot cling to one another, let them cling to You together. In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.
