Me and Allison

[SteveRC]

I have two prayer requests that I would appreciate some of the prayer warriors to help me out with.

I pray to the Lord that He bless and protect my daughter Allison, who is going through some difficult times with the breakup of her mom and me. She is doing her best in handling the situation and we have her in counselling, but she has become shy and withdrawn and won't go outside when she is at home with her mom. I want her to feel like God is watching out for her, even though He may not have granted her prayers for her family to remain totally intact. She told me that praying doesn't help anymore and I do not want her to lose faith.

I also ask for prayers for me. This is a very confusing time for me and I have been dealing with a broken heart for many months now. I realize that there is nothing I can personally do to change things and have left them to God. I have waves of uncertainty and fear related to situations that have presented themselves to me. I have moments where my confidence, which was completely torn down by my ex, waivers again and I cannot seem to move forward. I believe God is looking out for me, but I am afraid that I am making the wrong choices and reading things the wrong way.

Lord, I thank you for my brother Steve and his daughter, Allison. This is indeed a very stressful, confussing time for this family. Please put your loving arms around them and draw them close. Watch over Allison and protect her while she is going through this emotional roller coaster. Give Steve wisdom to sort through all of this, discernment to know what your will is for him and his life and what lines to draw. Heal his broken heart, Lord. Send ministering angels to be with him, to comfort him, to watch over him and keep him safe. Heal his spirit, Lord, so that he can walk this journey knowing that you are in control and that you will never leave him nor forsake him. Help Allison to find a way to cope and not withdraw. I pray for her mom, that she would be a positive role model when Allison is with her, that she would be on her guard against negative actions that Allison could pick up on, that she would stay positive for Allison's sake and only say good things about Steve in her presence. I pray a hedge of protection over this family.

Bless them through all of this. Pour out your mercy and your grace. Keept the enemy away. I pray for peace and understanding. I pray that this family could find joy in knowing you are there helping them. Thank you, Lord. In thy name, I pray. Amen
