I always tried (though wasn't always successful) to remember that when things got rougher - harder to endure - it was because something, somewhere was tilting the deck in my favor for what I was believing God for.
The Bible says if we will bind the things on earth that WE have the power to bind (through use of the Word) HE will bind the things that we can not; such as demonic influence, if you will, which is ultimately behind the breakdown of the family.
The things WE have the power to bind are spirits of selfishness, pride, unforgiveness, unwillingness to learn and grow (because it hurts) and giving our personal issues up to God [trusting Him], etc...
Try to remember that.
Also, the Bible says that He will bring back that which was driven away (and all LBSs had a hand - no matter how small - in their WASs becoming WASs).
I'll find that scripture for you...
It's Ezekiel 34:11-16
11 For thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I myself, even I, will search for my sheep, and will seek them out.
12 As a shepherd seeketh out his flock in the day that he is among his sheep that are scattered abroad, so will I seek out my sheep; and I will deliver them out of all places whither they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day.
13 And I will bring them out from the peoples, and gather them from the countries, and will bring them into their own land; and I will feed them upon the mountains of Israel, by the watercourses, and in all the inhabited places of the country.
14 I will feed them with good pasture; and upon the mountains of the height of Israel shall their fold be: there shall they lie down in a good fold; and on fat pasture shall they feed upon the mountains of Israel.
15 I myself will be the shepherd of my sheep, and I will cause them to lie down, saith the Lord Jehovah.
16 I will seek that which was lost, and will bring back that which was driven away, and will bind up that which was broken, and will strengthen that which was sick
