My beloved family is in shambles. A divorce is imminent...
My wife (of almost 26 years) and I were struggling to deal with our 15 year son who had become a demanding, controlling, angry, destructive, violent, suicidal and homicidal manic-depressive teenage son. This event alone is well known to be more than enough to break up many good families. And I cannot briefly describe the daily struggle and horror that our home life had become as a result. My wife had a nervous breakdown. In her distressed, worried, and exhausted state she had become depressed, confused, delusional, and irrational. My wife left me, taking our son, and going back to live with her mother. Upon arriving, instead of citing the most obvious motive, she went on to make a litany of bizarre, contradictory, and questionable claims for leaving. Whereupon, instead of acting in wisdom and kindness knowing full well what we were dealing with at home, they jumped on her claims like a pack of piranha. They then went to work, doing their very best to encourage and to ensure that my wife would not even come to consider reconciliation..
Please pray for my marriage. Please pray that my wife will stop taking council from her mother and her brothers and sisters who got divorced. Please pray for my wife to regain her memories of the love, kindness, and devotion we shared. Please pray that my wife will come to her senses and stop lying about our marriage in order to "save face." Please help to tear down that wall that my wife said she had to build around her heart so that she could divorce me and dissolve our family. Please soften my wife's heart and help us to find another way to fix this problem. PLEASE pray that my children get through this trying time without any more suffering and emotional scarring. Please pray for my son that he will know peace and happiness and that he will also realize how loved he is. Help my marriage, that my wife and I may find a way to work it out, instead of divorcing. Please let my wife know that "moving on" by shirking her responsibilities and by breaking all of her promises and commitments is a wrong path to "move on" and that it will lead to her undoing. Please pray that my wife learns this vital lesson. Please, Lord, help my wife and me to work out our problems and help us to fix our marriage. Please pray that the Lord will give me some direction and strength. I will continue to fight for this marriage if it is in His will. Please let my children know that you love them and that we are a part of your family. I pray that you please forgive me for any of my past sins. Thank you.
