I know I am a "newbie" here, and I apologize that I haven't been able to be as active as I would like, but you see, 2 weeks ago, my husband of 15 years and father of our 4 young children announced that he isn't "happy" and wants a divorce. I am numb, devastated, shocked.
I humbly ask that if you can find it in your heart to storm Heaven for us, I would so appreciate it. I don't want to lose my family, my marriage.
My husband had surgery 1 1/2 weeks ago and I have been taking care of him, despite what he told me, with all of the love I can muster. I am trying to be a helpmate and have a "servant's" heart. But, as soon as I think things are going really well, he mentions again about leaving and my bubble is burst.
I know I am supposed to trust in the Lord, and I am trying, but it is so difficult when you see your entire life going down the drain.
Thank you so much for your prayers!
God bless,
Lisa

Thank you all from the bottom of my heart for your prayers. They mean more than you know. My husband is having a lot of health problems right now and I am doing my best to take care of him with all of my love. Things can be going just like "old times" one minute and then he makes references to leaving again, and my bubble is burst, so the continued prayers would be so appreciated. I am trying to trust in the Lord and have given him to Our Lady, but it is so difficult and heartbreaking. I haven't eaten or slept well since this happened. God bless you all for your kindness!
