I just prayed for you:
Lord God please bless and guide this family and please comfort their child during this time. In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Lookin, I strongly encourage you to show love to your daughter as much as possible and your wife until the day Of divorce.
I would like to share the following with you:
A long time ago, God lead the Prophet Ezekial to a valley that was full of dry bones. Lots of skeletons, probably from a battle long ago. And God asked Ezekial, Can these bones live? Ezekiel answered, Only you know lord. God then commanded the bones to grow flesh and muscles and breathed his Spirit into them and they lived.
A similar event happened hundreds of years later, when the God Man Jesus walked the earth. A man named Lazarus had died. He was dead for several days, a rotting stinking corpse and Jesus came to his tomb and commanded "Lazarus, come forth." and Lazarus, formerly a rotting corpse was brought back to life and made whole.
God has the power to take what is broken and to fix it. He created the covenant of marriage. The early church considered marriage a Holy Sacrament, an act of obedience to God.
God does grant us the right to divorce for adultery. But marriage is an institution created by God and part of His divine plan. I don't know the details of your situation but I urge you to carefully humble yourself before God in prayer and ask for guidance. Especially for your child. Poor little children. Divorce is literally like world war 3 for them. Imagine driving in your car and the Emergency Broadcast System announces Russia just launched missiles against your home state. That is what divorce is like to a child.
I urge you to read the Bible, especially the books of Job, Hosea And the Gospel of John. And know that God can raise the dead. You may not know what His master plan is for you but He does love you, your wife and your child.
