OK, Here's the deal. Some of you know this and some of you don't, but I really would appreciate prayers over the next few months as I adjust to some major life changes... I am currently facing a divorce. Not of my choosing, but he is leaving nonetheless. We had a very unusual start to our marriage, and a foundation that was not strong enough to hold us together when the storms came rolling in. It completely shocked me because I never thought it would happen to me.
Please don't judge. There is nothing left in my power to do. I am trusting the Lord to carry me through however He sees fit... He will take care of me. I am in need prayer to deal with the changes and for emotional healing. I have a new job, my children now have to have childcare year-round, and now I sit a mere two-three weeks away from a part-time empty house and custody/visitation schedules.
I have no more words. I need to reach out and not be alone through this. Here's a useful link: 10 Things I Wish Christians Knew About a Divorced Woman. By linking to this site I am in no way condoning any other opinions on the site. The list of 10 things just resonates with me and I wanted to share it with you.

Friend,
I will stand with you through every moment of this in prayer and love on you with vigor. When your heart needs a laugh, I'm your gal. You can call me anytime and I will make you pee your pants. We'll paint, sip, pray, dance and sing...Love you!!!
I second Tiffany! If you are ever needing prayer, a laugh, a good pee in your pants kind of a moment then you call us! I have so much respect for you. I know that when the dust settles you will be a more powerful woman of God! Thank you for being so open and honest. We all need each other, not one person can do it alone. Love you girl!
Although I did know about this, my heart breaks for you as I read this.
I will definitely be praying for you through this time. Thanks for the link - I read it and "broke" again - it is a good reminder for all of us as to what you may be feeling.
Love you!
I am so sorry to hear about this. We will be praying for you and your family. I know I dont know you real well but we are all in the same family...HIS family. You are loved.
Standing with you during this time....may the peace of Christ that surpasses all understanding guard your heart and you mind....I'm praying that you grasp the love the Father has for you (and, all of us, too!).
I'm very sorry to hear this. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
Popping over from Livin' Life ..and had to say --
I liked what you said at the very beginning ..."and yet he's leaving nonetheless"
People who look down on divorced people (especially Divorcees) totally leave out the one factor that they (the divorced) can't control -- the other person...the spouse that is leaving.
God will not only pull you through - He'll make you shine.
Divorce is a really difficult thing. Trust yourself and know that you will come out the other side of this stronger and eventually happier. Remember ... the universe is right on schedule. We can't know what life and God have in store for us.
