Oh, beloved sister, our hearts break for the deep sorrow and despair you are carrying, but we must urgently speak life and truth into this moment. The enemy is whispering lies that this is the end, but we declare in the name of Jesus Christ that your story is not over—God has a purpose for you, and He alone holds your next breath. You are not abandoned, for the Lord says in **Deuteronomy 31:8**, *"It is Yahweh who goes before you. He will be with you. He will not fail you nor forsake you. Don’t be afraid. Don’t be discouraged."* Even now, He is with you, seeing your tears, and He is mighty to save.
First, we must address the urgency of your thoughts to end your life. This is not the way of hope, and it grieves the heart of God, who knit you together in your mother’s womb and has plans for you (**Jeremiah 29:11**). Suicide is a permanent solution to temporary pain, and it robs you of the redemption and restoration God wants to bring. The Bible tells us that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit (**1 Corinthians 6:19-20**), and we are not our own. Your life is precious to God, and He is not done writing your story. We plead with you—reach out to someone *right now*, whether it’s a pastor, a trusted believer, or even a crisis hotline. You are not meant to carry this alone.
Now, let us speak to the burdens you’ve shared. Your husband’s selfishness is a heavy cross to bear, and we acknowledge the exhaustion you must feel. Marriage is meant to reflect Christ’s love for the Church—a sacrificial, selfless love (**Ephesians 5:25**). If your husband is not walking in this, it is a grievous thing, but we urge you to remember that God sees his heart and will hold him accountable. Your role is not to fix him but to seek the Lord for wisdom on how to respond. **1 Peter 3:1-2** says, *"In the same way, wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; so that, even if any don’t obey the Word, they may be won by the behavior of their wives without a word; seeing your pure behavior in fear."* This does not mean enduring abuse or neglect, but it does mean trusting God to work in his heart while you remain faithful. If his behavior is abusive or dangerous, we strongly encourage you to seek godly counsel and safe boundaries. You are not required to stay in harm’s way.
As for your children and friend, the pain of abandonment is real, but we remind you that Jesus Himself was deserted by His disciples in His darkest hour (**Matthew 26:56**). Yet, He trusted the Father’s plan. People will fail you, but God never will. **Psalm 27:10** says, *"When my father and my mother forsake me, then Yahweh will take me up."* He is your ever-present help, and He will provide the comfort and companionship you need, even if it comes in unexpected ways.
You feel like there is no point, but we declare that your life has eternal purpose. You are a daughter of the King, and your suffering is not in vain. **Romans 8:18** tells us, *"For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which will be revealed toward us."* God is refining you, and He will use this season for His glory if you surrender it to Him.
Let us pray over you now with the authority of Jesus Christ:
*"Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this precious sister who is crushed in spirit. Lord, You are close to the brokenhearted (**Psalm 34:18**), and we ask You to wrap Your arms around her right now. Speak life into her soul and remind her that she is fearfully and wonderfully made (**Psalm 139:14**). Break the lies of the enemy that tell her there is no hope. Fill her with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (**Philippians 4:7**) and give her the strength to take the next right step.
Lord, we rebuke the spirit of despair and suicide in Jesus’ name. We bind every lie that says her life doesn’t matter, and we declare that You have a future and a hope for her (**Jeremiah 29:11**). Give her wisdom to seek help—whether through a pastor, a counselor, or a trusted believer—and surround her with Your angels for protection.
Father, we pray for her marriage. Soften her husband’s heart and convict him of his selfishness. If there is repentance to be had, bring it swiftly. If there is sin in his life, expose it and lead him to the cross. Give our sister the grace to forgive, the wisdom to set godly boundaries, and the courage to walk in obedience to You, even if it means hard choices ahead.
For her children and her friend, Lord, we ask for reconciliation where it aligns with Your will. Heal the broken relationships, and if they cannot be restored, fill the void with Your love and new godly connections. Remind her that she is never alone, for You are her ever-present help in trouble (**Psalm 46:1**).
Most of all, Father, draw her closer to You. Let this be the moment she surrenders her pain at Your feet and chooses to trust You with her future. Fill her with Your Holy Spirit and renew her mind with Your Word. Give her a vision for the days ahead—days filled with Your goodness and mercy.
We thank You, Lord, that You are working all things together for her good (**Romans 8:28**). We trust You to be her Provider, her Comforter, and her Strength. In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Savior and Redeemer, we pray. Amen."*
Sister, we implore you—**do not give up**. This very moment can be the turning point where you choose to cling to Jesus instead of surrendering to despair. Reach out for help *right now*. Call a crisis hotline, contact a pastor, or find a believer to pray with you. You are not alone, and this is not the end. God is with you, and He will make a way.
If you are in immediate danger or feel unable to cope, please seek help without delay. In the U.S., you can call or text 988 for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. Wherever you are, there are people who care and want to help. Let today be the day you choose life—**Deuteronomy 30:19** says, *"I have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse; therefore choose life, that you may live, you and your descendants."* Choose life, sister. Choose Jesus. He is waiting with open arms.
