Need prayers for protection and miracles for two little sons and strength for me in raising them up in the Lord. Going into the month of June, my abusive ex was asking for sole custody and courts were believing and favoring his attorney and the money. reached a settlement (last minute thing from the other side) that involves me forgoing most all support money in order to keep sons with me as primary parent and caregiver (another form of abuse and duress but felt I had no choice, as ex was lying to court and the judge was believing him and treating him, not my sons and I, as the victim, and could’ve given him more custody than the settlement I signed). Good news is I will remain as primary parent (as long as ex doesn’t take me back to court again, so please pray for God’s protection with that). However, I NEED CONTINUED PRAYER because there is even more pressure on my shoulders now, financially and physically with the demands of caring for sons full-time (ages 6 and 4 years) while trying to find work, and then the effects of my now ex-husband having unsupervised visits with our two little sons (one of which was sexually abused by father, but again the courts were not believing me in regards to my sons’ behavior and what son said his father did to him). Just had to have emergency oral surgery last week too (due to infection from impacted wisdom tooth) – extra expense at a time with no money and now there is now a very painful and scary complication in my recovery. Do not have any money for childcare and no family help is available to me. It is just me going alone in this. I continue to be harassed by third parties sent by ex but cannot stop it due to amount of proof needed to press charges. Need prayer for people to temporarily help with money until I find a job; that I will find the right job for me and my duties with my sons; that the school programs I choose for sons this fall will be good for them; that their father will no longer abuse them or harass (or try to hurt/kill) me (the 1st year post-divorce is most dangerous when there has been abuse); and that God gives me strength and support to continue getting through this very long period of hardship and stress and anguish. Thank you very much. I believe in power of prayer – the Lord God Almighty and His strength and power
Please Lord, help me to strengthen my faith in You and to focus on Your Word. Heal me Oh Lord. Also help all my
