Please pray for my wife Stephanie. She told me March 2nd that she wanted a divorce. We have a beautiful 4-year-old little boy. She is 30 years old and I am 43 years old. She told me that she was never in love with me and she is still in love with her ex husband. He used to abuse her. She also said that counseling would not help because it would not change the way she feels about me. I asked her why she married me and she told me because of our little boy and that I was her best friend. She said that she still wants us to go on family vacations together and there is no rush for me to move out of the house. Satan is really working on and has the blinders on her. She also has fantasies about women. I feel God is calling me to get Closer to Him. So I have been getting closer to God and studying the word. I can only change me and stay out of the way and let God take care of my wife. God hates divorce and it is not in his will for us to divorce. I have been praying that God will soften her heart and that I am in her heart and that she misses me when I'm not around and that she will fall in love with me. I also pray that God will put a woman of God in her life. My wife is so mixed up. She tells me I am her best friend and she wants to find herself. Please pray that I know what to say to Stephanie in conversation and help us to communicate more with each other.


Well if this is not enough I went into work the other day and my boss told me that some time in July my job at NBC television of twenty years is being phased out. I have been praying for the last three years that God will show me a way that I can work from home and be closer to my family and to keep me at my job until He is ready for me to leave. I guess He is answering my prayers but I don't have a clue what I will do. I pray for Gods perfect will and guidance and to put the person or persons in my life to take me to the next level in my life. I refuse to let Satan ruin my family and personal life. I have lost 49 pounds and have 31 more to go. God is changing me for the better. Please pray for my family. I am Joe. My wife is Stephanie and my little boy is Jacob. I am trying so hard to be the man that God wants me to be. I hope you have a blessed day. Thank you.

Dear Lord,
Please be with Stephanie, Joe, and Jacob during this difficult time. Please show Joe Your will for his job and make his path clear. Please help them rebuild their marriage, with You as the center.

In Jesus' Name,
Amen
