Father, please hold this precious one in Your arms.
Give her peace, Lord, lift the anxiety, and comfort her.
Father, please give her the strength, courage and faith that she needs.
Honour her love and obedience, Lord, bless her as she seeks Your will in this situation.
And please let her know how very, very much she is loved and valued
in the name of Jesus
Amen.

You are in my prayers sis as well as your family.

God Bless you:)

Psalm 91 (New International Version)



Psalm 91

1 He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. [a]
2 I will say [b] of the LORD, "He is my refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust."
3 Surely he will save you from the fowler's snare
and from the deadly pestilence.
4 He will cover you with his feathers,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.
5 You will not fear the terror of night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,
6 nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness,
nor the plague that destroys at midday.
7 A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
8 You will only observe with your eyes
and see the punishment of the wicked.
9 If you make the Most High your dwelling—
even the LORD, who is my refuge-
10 then no harm will befall you,
no disaster will come near your tent.
11 For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways;
12 they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.
13 You will tread upon the lion and the cobra;
you will trample the great lion and the serpent.
14 "Because he loves me," says the LORD, "I will rescue him;
I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.
15 He will call upon me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble,
I will deliver him and honor him.
16 With long life will I satisfy him
and show him my salvation."

:hug: :hug: and :prayer: :prayer: coming your way sis! I remember the day I got the papers. I knew they were coming because over and over again he told me he did NOT want to be married anymore, but when they got here they seemed so LEGAL and so FINAL. Numb and shocked--that's how I felt--like I didn't feel anything and some robot that looked like me was reading the papers.

Here's my best word of advice to you about this. Look over everything--the finances and the assets and the debts--and choose one or maybe two "hills to die on" and be willing to negotiate with the rest. Here's why I suggest that. A marriage is being torn apart. No matter WHAT you do, there are no "winners" when a marriage dies. You are going to lose some things that are precious to you, and so is he. No matter what you accept in the separation, it will not be fair and it will not be what you deserve after all those years of devotion and building together with him (because what you deserve it was you built together and to have it all). You will save yourself a lot of years of pain and bitterness if you begin to accept now that you are not going to be the "winner", you are going to lose some things, and it is not going to be fair.

There are some things that are WORTH standing on the hill and dying for, and some things are worth letting go and rebuilding on your own. Know what I mean? I'm an able-bodied, educated working woman and I didn't really need alimony although I deserved it. But the KIDS deserved child support even if he wanted to be a walk-away father! They have TWO parents and both should support them financially--so that was my hill to die on. He can walk out on me and I'm a big girl--I can take it--but he can not walk out on his responsibility to his children financially NOR will I just "trust" him to pay me.

So, hang in there girly. Maybe channel a little bit of your anger into standing up for yourself and being assertive.
