Time ticking
Divorce in January or February, time ticking down. No job, no degree/training, can't afford mortgage and need decent/insulated 3bedroom apartment for me, mom and kids; want custody and need child support and full time job; need more than minimum wage; really should try to go back to community college or trade school but have no idea what to do; I can't type well, can't stand blood and guts and don't think beauty school would get me a job I can live on; I'm not young anymore either which is another issue, I'm 48. My husband owns the house next door with his girlfriend, he's behind on our mortgage and our house is a fixer upper, I can't afford mortgage and high utility bills. I'm out of shape and need some new clothes for job and life and a warm winter coat for catching bus. Need good bus to get around. My mother is moving in to help but she doesn't have lots of money and doesn't really want to move in but feel sorry for me, she could get low income senior housing, I can't get housing because of bad credit. I'm scared. My nine year old son is angry, destructive and physically assaults me (biting, punching, kicking), doesn't want to move into apartment and would rather live in house next door with dad and have mistress watch him while my husband his dad works till 2/3 am. I can't pay all bills and buy groceries and occasional new clothes for me and kids on minimum wage. I'm not slow but I'm not some brain and my parents never taught me and siblings how to work, discipline, punishment/consequences as kids or teens. Ive never been independent and I need a miracle or I'll never make it. I'm not asking to be rich but to survive and stand on my own and take care of kids. I would also like to meet single Christian man in future and find live and friendship/marriage but I know my life is too much of a mess to subject a man to that and don't want to be a leech. My 14 year old daughter is flunking school and has a boyfriend, don't think is saved. Doesn't seem to care, want my kids to do better than me. Our home life is a complete mess, can't seem to focus and help my kids or myself. Want to start over and actually have a life, want to serve Jesus, want hobbies, career, my church is legalistic and I don't have any real friends after 22 years there. Hard to find a biblically sound and living church around here. Don't fit in anywhere. Please pray my family and old lady Bea gets saved. Pray for people at my church to come out of legalism, especially a particular man. Pray for discernment, pray pator sees light on his legalistic teachings. I don't want to stop going to church altogether. Idont want joy to be diminished in me and my kids. I can't take much more. I need to call Legal Aid and get lawyer, been pushing off for almost two years. Pray I get courage, transportation, warmth for outside, money, pray for a lawyer and judge that know what they're doing, morals and compassion. I need all the help I can get, I'm sinking fast. Been praying over two years and nothing has changed. Pray God gives me a job very soon with good hours I can do well and some school direction to make more money and a career not job. Pray for lots of grants and scholarships so not much debt to pay back. Please pray I get tax return to pay back credit card debt to get out of debt asap.

RE: Time ticking
Lord protect this family and provide for them. Give this mother wisdom and teach her how to use it. Protect her children from all harm and have them see that what has happened between their parents it's not their fault. Teach them how to cope with this and to be strong as well as their mother. Save them all, may they learn from this experience, that we have to be more careful as to whom we pick for our partners. Give them all your peace and strength Lord. In Jesus' precious name I pray amen.
