My H left on November 8th, after telling me he didn't think he was in love with me any longer. We have four children, ranging in age from 16 to 5, and yesterday the 16 year old snapped, raged, picked up his little sister and would have crushed her if I hadn't jumped on him. Then he fell to his knees crying unconsolably, the first time he has cried since H left. I called H who came over and talked with our son, encouraged him to send H an email telling exactly what he thought of H for leaving. We were a close but not loving family. Of course I want my husband back, he is a kind and generous soul who I believe is lost now with some clinical depression that he won't seek counseling for. Please pray that we can accept what God has planned for us, with an emphasis on H coming home! Thank you

Heavenly Father,
We lift up our new friend, Reet and her family to you now. Father, all of them are hurting. Please give them comfort. Father, whatever is going on with Reet's H, please help him through it Lord, and turn his heart back towards his family. Lord, please help Reet's children to be able to express their sadness in a more healthy way. Give Reet your STRENGTH while she's with these children on her own. Father we know that your plan is NOT to harm, but to bring joy. We ask you to give Reet the peace that you are with her and her family throughout all of this, even when it seems she's alone. Give her peace, patience and strength to know that you are there, helping her through this. I ask all these things in your precious son Jesus' name.<p>AMEN<p>Take care, read and post here. You've come to a wonderful place for support.<p>MOM

Jesus, we ask for strength right now for this family. We pray that you bind the spirit of depression in this husband and that you loose your Holy spirit in his heart and in his mind. Lord, you are not the father of confusion, the evil one is, and we ask that you send a host of angels to do battle for this family. Jesus, we also ask that you place a hedge of protection around the children of this family, That you would bring about a calm peaceful spirit to their lives as they go through this time of trial. Lord, we pray that you do a great and wonderful work in this husband, that you would remind him of the spiritual responsibility He has for his family. Finally Lord, we thank you for the Love of this wife, and we ask that you keep her strong in her faith and that you keep her close to your heart. Lord I pray that she feels your presence in her life. Jesus, we thank you for your promises and we look forward to your answers to our prayers. Bless your name Jesus! Amen.
