Restoration of relationship - grandma123 - 06-25-2011 08:46 PM
My daughter has been in a horrible break up (since April). Unfortunatly there are two small children involved, who hurt very much. So first of I would like to ask for prayers of SALVATION for DENISE and MARKIETH. I know that this is the first and most important step to heal their little family. I would also like prayer for the restoration of the family unit. Please also pray for the removal of all people that hinder this process.
I also need some advice. I spend a lot of time with the children (since my daughter has to work) and I care very much for them. It hurts me so much to see them sad and wanting their Daddy to come home. Because of financial problems (caused by him walking out on his family) they even will have to move back into my house. So I am very close to the kids. If it is indeed God's will (which I can not understand) for this family to be destroyed how do I accept this? I am so sad for them. I understand that God has a plan, but how can this be good for anyone? Why would God want this for this family (esp. the children)? Do I stop praying for them to be restored and give up (since it looks like both of them just gave up and try to move on) and just hand this over to the Lord. My faith is very shattered by this.

Dear Grandma123,
I am sorry for the problems in your daughters marriage and will pray for reconcilation. God always wants reconciliation in marriage, but sometimes it is not possible. I lost a man I loved dearly. In the end it was better for the children to be away from the fighting and he chose not to change his ways. It is best for each to turn over every stone possible if they are willing. Counseling, prayer, everything they can do and after they have tried it all and it does not succeeed only then can they walk away knowing it is justified. I am in psycology so I hope this helps and I will be praying for them. Keep the faith and I will pray tonight as I lay in bed that God can heal their hearts and wounds and I hope they can meet someone who or experience for a brief moment how excruciating divorce can be so they can keep their family together. Good luck to you.
