Prayer Request for my Daughter

06-22-2008, 09:42 AM #1 (**permalink**)

I was not going to post this but, I need your help so badly. I would ask you all to remember my daughter and grandaughters in prayer. Today I am leaving to move her back home to Wisconsin with ther 2 girls. Her soon to be ex is not happy about this and is being a total jerk. He told her, in front of the 6 and 7 year old girls that he wished she would kill herself so he wouldn't have to. Just one little piece of info about WHY she is FINALLY leaving. Because of his drunkedness they lost everything, his job, their home, their cars. She worked but did not make much money so they lost it all when he decided to take a year and a half off. I tried to talk her into staying in WI last summer when we were there for her brothers wedding and her husband ended up in jail ( for 4 months and on 3 thethers for 4 more months) but she did not want to do that. When we got back is when she found out she had 2 weeks to move from the house. For whatever reason he kept this little piece of info from her. She and the girls have been staying with this friend and that friend. I have done the best I could being unemployed myself. God what a mess. Any way, she is scared, confused and hopping mad all at the same time. Please pray she finds a job right away. (She is going to be living in my other daughters house) I am going to try to get her a car so she can go to work when she finds it (very rural area) and the girls are just devestated by the entire mess. Sorry to go on and on but I am so worried about her, he has her believing she is a worthless piece of s#*@. He told her yesterday also that he would find a way to make her suffer. He blames her for everything when his drinking did it all. Pray for me too because I just want to see the man behind bars again OR WORSE at this point and I hate feeling this way. I am counting on Gods promise here. Please pray.

I am so sorry to hear about your DD's troubles. Just be thankful she has someplace to go for now. I am thinking of her and the girls and hoping things will work out. I am also hoping his threats are just that people say things to each other they really don't mean just to get a rise out of them. He sounds like a coward to me
Take care

Oh darlin of course we will keep all of you in our prayers and our thoughts. May god help her find away to give her the strength to carry on for the wee ones sake. Once she is away from him and with a little help from the rest of your family she will soon find her self confidence she needs to carry on.

I have been there myself and on the run ( I had to hide from mine with two very small children). She can do this with everyone's support. Being a mom means you do whatever it takes to keep your kids safe. The Lord helped me through and I will have our family pray you and yours.

God Bless and keep you all safe!

I will definitely be praying for your family.

I know too well what it's like to live with an alcoholic, I did it for 18 yrs. but fortunately he wasn't as bad as her ex.

Tell her to hang in there and go one day at a time - things have a way of working out.

I'm keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. I left my abusive, alcoholic spouse after 11 years. Thank God my Mom was there for me. Her love, support and- at times- her stubbornness - gave me the courage I needed to make that final break. What a rough time for you, your daughter and the kids. Hang in there, Mom...you'll get through this! Stay strong and have faith - you are not alone.
