Dear Lord,
This family goes to my church. I don't know them, but they need prayer. I pray for the best possible outcome of this custody battle-whatever is in the best interests of everyone, esp. the children. I don't know their ages, but divorce is so hard on the whole family. May the children be sure of the love of both parents; may there be no bitterness, anger, cruelty or denigrating behavior in the way the parents treat one another, at least not in front of the children; may the children not be used as pawns for one parent to get back at the other; may the parents not disparage one another in front of the children; and so on.
May this trial not harm anyone's faith, but instead allow it to grow.
In your holy name, amen.
