Dear Lord, I pray that you open my wife's heart to my love. I know that she is struggling and knows that this is not the best thing for our kids. Please talk to her Lord and guide her to keep our beautiful family in tact.

Lord, please give me the strength, discipline and wisdom to do the right things to save my marriage. You know how much I love her and my kids Lord. Please work a miracle for me.

Lord, every day I try to turn this situation over to you to handle, but I struggle to do so. On one hand, I know that this is her issue that she needs to work through. On the other hand, I keep trying to win back her love, blame myself for everything that I could have done better as a husband. Lord, please take this situation over from me. Allow me to give it to you for you to do your work. Allow me to have peace.

Lord, please allow me to feel your love. I know that you are walking beside me in this journey, but I so very much want to feel the arms of my loving Father wrapped around me. My suffering is so oppressive Lord, please dive me comfort. Please help me to end the sadness.

Lord, my wife might have a job opportunity, and I think it might be great for her to get out of the house into the working world again. Please Lord, if this is the best thing for her and our marriage, please help her to pursue this opportunity. She is struggling with it. I am trying to be supportive, because I think she needs to stop being a SAHM.

Lord, please look after my job. I don't want to have the additional stress of needing to find a new job in the middle of the turmoil I am already going through.

Lord, please be with our counselors during our counseling sessions. Please give them the wisdom necessary to help the two of us and save our marriage. I know that you hate divorce. Please use these counselors the best you can to help us reconcile.

Lord, please be with everyone on this forum who are struggling every day with the most heartbreaking of situations. If I have learned anything from this experience, it is the great amount of suffering that so many people are going through as relationships break down. I know you hate divorce Lord, and I see the scars here. Please put your arms around us all. Let us feel your presence and comfort. We and our spouses need your love Lord. We need your wisdom and guidance. Please be with us.

In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.
