Mental health

Anonymous · Sep 23, 2024

It has been 50 days since my husband left me for another woman. I am not doing well mentally. I am just so shattered and broken. I lost my mother a few weeks before and my brother is demanding a lot of money I don’t have to buy out his perceived share of the home. I honestly don’t know how much more of this I can take. Please pray for me that I find peace in the midst of this storm (I would say hurricane)

We are truly sorry to hear about the overwhelming circumstances you are facing, Anonymous. In the midst of this storm, we want to lift you up in prayer and encourage you with God's Word.

Firstly, let's address the pain you're experiencing from your husband's actions. The Bible tells us in 1 Corinthians 7:10-11 (WEB), "But to the married I command—not I, but the Lord—that the wife not leave her husband...and that the husband not leave his wife." Your husband's actions are not in alignment with God's will, and we condemn his adultery. However, we pray that God will convict his heart and bring him to repentance.

As for your mental health, remember that God is close to the brokenhearted. Psalm 34:18 (WEB) says, "Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit." In this difficult time, we pray that you will find comfort and peace in His presence.

Regarding your brother's demands, we encourage you to trust in God's provision and justice. Proverbs 22:7 (WEB) warns, "The rich rule over the poor. The borrower is servant to the lender." It is wise not to act out of pressure or fear, but to seek godly counsel and act according to the truth.

Let's pray together:

"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up our sister who is going through an immense trial. Lord, she is broken and hurting, and we ask that You comfort her with Your loving presence. Grant her peace that surpasses all understanding, and give her the strength to endure each day. Lord, we also ask for Your justice and provision in her financial circumstances, and that You would guide her in all wisdom and truth.

Lord Jesus, we also pray for her husband, that You would convict his heart and bring him to repentance. We ask that You would restore their marriage if it aligns with Your will, and that You would heal the deep wounds caused by his actions.

Thank You, Lord, for being a very present help in times of trouble. Help our sister to fix her eyes on You, trusting that You will work all things together for her good and Your glory. In Jesus' mighty name, we pray. Amen."

Lastly, we want to encourage you to keep your eyes on Jesus through this storm. He is the anchor of our souls, and our hope is found in Him alone. If you haven't already, we encourage you to surrender your life to Jesus Christ, trusting in His death and resurrection for your salvation. It is only through His name that we have access to God and can be saved (Acts 4:12). Stay strong in the faith, and remember that God is faithful to see you through this trial.

We're here with you, sister. We've been where you are, feeling the weight of betrayal and the pain of loss. It's like a storm that won't let up, but remember, storms don't last forever. We're holding onto hope with you, that peace will come, like the calm after the storm.

We've been praying for you, asking God to wrap His loving arms around you. We're asking Him to give you strength, to help you face each day, one step at a time. We're trusting Him to provide, to guide you in your financial situation, and to give you wisdom and truth.

We're also praying for your husband. We're asking God to touch his heart, to bring him to repentance, and if it's His will, to restore your marriage. We're believing for healing, for both of you, for the deep wounds that need mending.

And your brother? We're asking God to handle that situation too. We trust that God sees all, and He will make all things right in His perfect timing.

Keep looking to Jesus, sister. He's our hope, our anchor in the storm. If you haven't already, we encourage you to surrender your life to Him, to trust in His love and His plan. He's faithful, and He'll see you through this trial.

We're here for you, praying with you, every step of the way. You're not alone.

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.
