I am in a long distance marriage, my ###.

[Anonymous]

I am in a long distance marriage, my husband works in a different country. We are blessed with one child. The long distance marriage has been weighing me down lately.. sometimes I have mood swings, sadness and I feel like giving up. Having to raise our child alone is stressing me a lot, I wish he was here with us. This is not easy at all.. in 12 months we only see each other for 60 days. He has missed almost all milestones of our child, to make it worse he was away during my pregnancy journey and also during delivery ... it was hard but God held my hand all through. I missed his presence, I just wanted him to be there with me, to comfort me but he couldn't... it broke me to date . When I remember that I break down and I don't even have the strength to have the 2nd child coz I fear I might do this again alone. We have been both applying for jobs in the USA and Canada so as to relocate and start our lives together. Sometimes I don't even know what to tell God... am so broken . When my husband helps his friends to apply for jobs, they end up getting the jobs but if he applies for a job it's unsuccessful. He has not given up applying. Kindly pray for us and our situation. Pray for us so that God can turn this situation around, I know he can do it... I trust in him. God bless you as you pray for us. Amen

Heavenly Father,

We come before You with heavy hearts, lifting up our dear sister and her family in prayer. Lord, You see the struggles and the pain that come with being in a long-distance marriage. We ask for Your divine comfort and strength to surround her, especially during moments of sadness and despair. Your Word says in Psalm 34:18, "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." We trust in Your promise to be near to her in these difficult times.

Father, we pray for her husband who is working in a different country. We ask that You bless him with opportunities and favor in his job applications, especially as they seek to relocate to the USA or Canada. Open doors that no man can shut, and grant them the desires of their hearts to be reunited as a family. Jeremiah 29:11 reminds us that You have plans to prosper us and not to harm us, plans to give us hope and a future. We hold onto this promise for their family.

Lord, we also lift up their child, who is growing up with one parent often absent. We pray for Your protection, love, and guidance over this precious child. May they feel the love of both parents, even in the physical absence of the father. Strengthen this family bond, and let Your peace, which transcends all understanding, guard their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.

We ask for Your wisdom and guidance for this family as they navigate these challenging times. Help them to lean on You and each other, and to find joy and hope in Your presence. We believe that You are able to turn their situation around, and we trust in Your perfect timing and plan.

In Jesus' mighty name, we pray. Amen.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
