Disciple of Prayer
Hi, I'm re-posting this because I accidentally deleted the previous post while trying to correct a spelling error in a follow-up post thanking everyone who had prayed for that post. I could still use the prayers so I wanted to request this prayer again.
I've prayed here many times for the health and healing of my marriage, as my wife and I have been in divorce proceedings since May. It is now about two weeks past the date on which our divorce was meant to be final, but due to some paperwork mistakes made by my wife we remain married until the errors are corrected and re-filed. I have held out hope that this error was God's hand moving in our situation to hold us together long enough for my wife to reconsider , but she has made it clear to me that she will not be changing her mind and will be correcting the mistakes as soon as possible. I've come here to pray for the healing of my broken heart. In the last seven months since my wife asked me to leave I've seen her fall into the arms of multiple men, eventually ending up in a romantic relationship with a man 19 years her senior (she's 32 and he's 51.) All the while my life has fallen apart in many different ways. I have leaned into God's love and guidance and have learned much, but I've still been left alone with unrealized hopes, dreams, and unanswered prayers. My faith has been shaken and the meaning of my life has gradually disappeared. Every moment apart from this woman, who I was certain for so many years that I was meant to spend the rest of my life with, has been a new moment of torturous hell. I've done my best to carry on with my life in as healthy and intelligent a way as possible under the circumstances, but it has been increasingly difficult rather than easier. I feel that there is still something tying me and this woman together, but I pray that if we are not to be together that it be removed so that this pain can be removed from my life and the weight of this sadness be lifted from my heart. Please pray with me that His will be done in my life in whatever way it's meant to.
