Disciple of Prayer
Good Morning, I want to thank everyone for all your prayers this past month. On an update from my end, my wife was very understanding about not graduating this semester and needing some more time to complete my dissertation. This phase of life has made my desire to draw closer to God and trust Him. Your prayers really helped and made a difference. I wanted to reach out for prayer regarding my situation right now. Currently, my wife is working multiple jobs while I finish up school. I should be done in the summer and at the latest fall this year. I have started to apply for jobs and have not had any luck recently and I am hoping that can change. My prayer request is that God can lead me to a job He wants me to be at. On Sunday I gave God control of the situation and I acknowledged that He alone is the one that can make this possible. But there are two issues I am facing during this time. First, my wife only wants me to work remote. For me, I am a people person and having relationships with others is important to me. With my schoolwork as an RA, I was remote the past three years so I did not build relationships with many. My wife and I have been around each other nearly 24/7 which has proven to be unhealthy for our marriage and relationship. The second is that my wife has been verbally abusive recently. Anytime I bring up something that bothers me, she immediately brings up that we should divorce. When I need a break from the kids, she says that she makes the money. I am constantly being put down for trying to finish up my schooling, which takes time to complete. I am not going to post here and act like I am the greatest husband. I am not and I am trying to do the best that I can with the circumstances I am in. But the verbal abuse is something no one should experience. My main request for prayer is that I continue to trust God during this time and continue to give God this desire to find a job to Him. I know He sees what is happening but it gets tough when you battle this everyday and you feel at points that things won’t change or get better. I want to trust God during this process and I want Him to know I am trying in the strength I have to follow Him. Thank you.
