Please pray for my son, his fiance and their two baby girls ages 22 months and 6 months. They have had a 5 year relationship riddled with turmoil. They have been verbally abusive to each other and she has hit him, head butted him (which broke his nose), and had very destructive behavior.(throwing things, tipping furniture over, punching holes in walls and putting her foot through their brand new 60commercial inch plasma TV. The police have been involved numerous times and she has even spent a night in jail for assault. When things are good they are very happy, have fun together and treat each other well. When they argue though things rapidly get out of control. We've had about 5 months of relative peace and they even moved into their first house last month. The last two weeks though have been really bad and my son is telling her to pack her things and get out, knowing she would take his daughters with her and be forced to move home with her parents, and her father is very hot tempered,confrontational and verbally abusive to his family. Both of them are usually more concerned about themselves than the well being of my grand daughters. The girls have spent more time with my husband and I then they have spent with either my son or his fiance. My son and his fiance are both very selfish, immature, resenrful and unforgiving. They each blame the other for their problems and refuse to see their own unreasonable behavior and expectations of one another. Both of them are at fault. While his fiance has been pretty horrible in the past, my son has been as well, but she has made a great effort to change over the last 6 months and has made significant progress. It infuriates my husband and I that our son can so easily be willing to uproot his daughters, put them out of their home , because he "isn't happy". We are at a loss and we are torn up inside over all of this. We want what is best for each of them and our precious grand daughters. We want to do and say the right thing to help guide and support our son and his fiance but they are both very stubborn and are caught in the trap of the enemies lies that the other isn't being fair, they deserve better, etc., etc. Their is not an ounce of humbleness in either of them, nor mercy, grace or forgiveness. We just are so heavy hearted and worried for the girls. My son and his fiance both grew up in church and know right from wrong. Even though their lives don't demonstrate it right now, they both do know the Lord and have accepted Jesus as their savior. The enemy has been trying relentlessly to destroy their relationship ever since my first grand daughter was born. Please pray for peace, grace, mercy, forgiveness, humbleness, wisdom and reconciliation between them. Please pray that the Lord will intervene and destroy the stronghold the enemy has them in right now. Please pray that our grandchildren will be safe in God's hands, protected from their parent's bad behavior and decisions. Please pray that my husband and I will be given wisdom and the right words to say at the right time so that God can use us as vessels in this situation. Our prayer is that they will overcome the devil, marry and raise the girls in a home where Christ is Lord and grace and unconditional love are the norm, not the exception.
