Please Pray for my Parents - Guest - 10-20-2009 10:59 AM
My parents have been married almost 25 years. 7 months ago my mother served my father w/divorce papers and although she hasn't taken any more steps legally she has not spoken to him or since him since. She has bottled up anger for many years. They are both loving people who want happiness.
God,
Please be with mom and dad today. Please keep my dad strong and hopeful that their marriage will work and please be with my mom who has been so angry. Lord please soften her heart. Please let her make steps towards communication with him as this week goes on. Please let her remember the good times and see the pain she has caused my father. Let her want to listen to what he has to say. Dear Lord please let them both feel your presence today and know that they are not alone in this struggle.
Please let me be strong and a positive spot in both their lives. Please remove the anger and resentment my mother has been feelings towards my father and the rest of our family. We all love her very much. Please be with her lawyer today as he is extremely aggressive and has continued to try to push on legally. Please be with her friend Rose who has said terrible things about my father and encouraged my mothers anger. God we put this is your hands and know that only you can perform this miracle.
In Jesus name I pray.
Amen

I know in another of your requests, that you mentioned your dad has gone to a Divorce support group, church, etc. I'm the one with a son that is your age. Go buy the book, The Power of a Praying Husband, for your dad...or have him go and get it. I bought The Power of a Praying Wife and love it.
Lord, please help us all, the angry, hurt spouses that are being led away by evil, and also the spouses that have been left behind, standing in the gap (or attempting to) for their marriage. Please shield us from the lies of the enemy, and to have hearts filled with the truth. Guide us to you and back to our marriages. Help us to be completely forgiving of each other, and to be humble enough to ask for forgiveness when we need to. Please keep us from negative emotions. Soften our hearts towards one another. Give us hearts strong in faith, so that we don't have to be afraid of the future. Protect the children that are caught in these stormy times. Lead them to desire and encourage the restoration of their parent's marriage, and open the parent's ears so that they will hear it.
Amen

I mentioned the book to my dad and I think he is going to get it. I think I may also get it for my mom.
I have been praying for your family and I hope things are getting better. It's so frusturating because it seems like there are really bad days and everyone once in a while something will happen that we sort of twist into good news and the days a little better. My dad has really had a hard time in the last week. My mom has decided to move into their condo 2000 miles away and let my dad come home.
Who knows if it's trick or if she really is going to use it for time to think, like she says. It will only be a few months but we have lived i the same house for over 20 years and my dad moving home without my mom being here isn't quite what we were hoping for.
He has been so sad and depressed, he has an extremley stressful job, and I think it's all getting to be too much for him.
The only thing that has kept me postive is prayer and I really feel like me staying positive is what has helped him.
I will continue to pray for your everyone in your family, and I really hope that both of our famlies can be put back together.

Please continue to pray for my parents. My mother is now moving 2000 miles away for some time to think...They have not gone any further legally however they haven't talked either. (Only some through email). It has been 8 months now. Please pray that my mother kind find what she's searching for within herself. She says she feels lost and doesn't know herself anymore.
