My husband is leaving

My marriage is coming to an end..

My husband is leaving

I have no car.

I cannot afford our rent on my own

I have bills up the wazoo

The cubboards are bare

The kids and I are left with a very uncertain future

I don't know what is going to happen, but I know that all I have left is my faith, hope and trust. Which I am investing in the Lord and believing that he will take care of us.

I am in a place of having to completely trust and solely rely on God

Please just lift us up in prayer

Humbly,
Passion

****{Nyte}}}

I can relate. The writers strike has me in one hell of a tough position. I'm leaving a lot up to my Higher Power right now, just knowing I'll get through this. It's scary, I'm walking right beside you girl. Stay Strong... You will make it through this, You Can do it!!

Prayers with tears


Lord this child of your's has been through so much.
She shows us a heart like Job's, please fill her with peace as You did for Job.
No matter the storm, may that special peace that transends all understanding be sent overflowing to her heart and life.

Hugs to you my sweetie.
I know for a fact that partners of chronically ill children have a very high incidence of divorce, as do most of the hospitals where the children are treated. My question is, is it possible to reach out to that institution for some kind of guidance for your marriage?


Even though it may seem like other things are pulling you apart, maybe the basic reason is the additional stress you both have been under?


I'm praying for you Passion, that if this is NOT what you want, then it shall be mended. Miracles happen everyday.


Hugs, and prayers.......

I want what God wants. Thy will not my will. I don't know what Gods plans are for me and the kids or for us as a family, but I do know that whatever it is .. it will be in our best interest.

Nyte,

I believe as you do ... God sees the big picture when we can only see what is right in front of our face.

As Ann once told me, "Live in the solution (God), not in the problem (me and others.) I've been trying to remember that myself today.

God promises are true, Nyte. We may not understand why things are happening, but I know your/my God is big enough to handle it and get you through it.

Hugs and Prayers,
Hangin' In

I am so sorry to hear your news. It breaks my heart, because you and
your children, especially Dakota, have gone through so much this past year.
I pray that things can be worked out and that he is at least willing to help
you all finacially. Even if he can't emotionally. Again, I am truly sorry for
you and your family.
I just recently picked up a little book called "Keeping-Up-Your-Spirits
Therapy" by Linda Allison-Lewis.
So, today, I send you a keep up your spirits ditty...

"See problems as opportunities. Don't dwell on them. Work on finding
solutions".

Another...

"Don't despair. A broken heart can mend if you give God all the pieces".

And lastly...

Have faith in yourself. Refuse to believe in the word impossible.


I love your strength, wisdom, and recovery, Nyte.
I believe there is nothing that you can't accomplish. From my heart to yours....

Words can't express how heavy my heart is for you right now. I know your faith will get you through this and I believe better things must be ahead for you.
Faith - something you have shown through all of your posts - all of them.
All I can do is pray for you and your family. Also sending giant hugs from your family here at SR.

Keep posting and let us know how you and your family are doing.
As always, my prayers are with you.

Do the best you can and leave the rest to God. With all these codie prayers, and I'm adding mine too, you just KNOW God's gonna pay attention.

You've come a long way, and your little Dakota is healing, just keep going a little longer and your path will become brighter.

Hugs and Prayers :praying

I have to admit .. I am scared and excited at the same time. I feel like christmas is around the corner. Though it hurts to come to the end of my marriage I know I cannot change him or his behavior. I have fought this tooth and nail, but I myself have to use the knowledge that I share here and apply it to my own situation

I have to embrace who he (my husband) is today and not what you hope he will be tomorrow.
I have to let go and let God.

I am looking up asking not for God to change him, but rather change me.

I'm letting go and trusting God to catch me.

I will not let fear rule me. I do not know what tomorrow brings or the next day for that matter, but I do know who brings tomorrow forth and I know that he loves me and my children and he says he is a father to the fatherless and a husband to the husbandless .. He said he will never leave me or forsake me. I am holding on to his promises and waiting on the Lord.


I have to believe
By Rita Springer

I have to believe that He sees my darkness
I have to believe that He knows my pain
I have to lift up my hands to worship
Worship His name

I have to declare that He is my refuge
I have to deny that I am alone
I have to lift up my eyes to the mountains
It's where my help comes from

He said that He's forever faithful
He said that He's forever true
He said that He can move mountains
And if He can move mountains
He can move my mountain
He can move Your mountain too

I have to stand tall when the wind blows me over
I have to stand strong when I'm weak and afraid
I have to grab hold, hold of the garments
Garments of praise

I have to sing praise when the hour is midnight
He unlocks the chains that bind up my soul
My sin and my shame, He has forgiven, and made me whole

I have to believe

Passion
