I'm considering renting my basement as I am newly divorced and I am staying in the house while he moves out. I have a good job but I think it will be tight financially and I will be living paycheck to paycheck. As a woman living alone, this is a big decision. I don't want to rent to the wrong person. Please pray that God brings me the right person if it be his will that I go this route.
My family is going through a lot of changes in the coming months, and we could really use your prayers and guidance. Both of my kids are moving to Boston — one for work and the other for graduate school. I am also leaving an abusive marriage and starting over on my own. I'm not sure if my daughter will qualify for full student loan coverage, and I won't be in a position to help her financially since I'll be supporting myself.
My daughter was accepted to a university in Boston for graduate studies. It's a very good school and a great opportunity. I really want the best for her but she only qualified for a partial student loan. I would have to come with $26K per year for 2 years. Her father, my ex is not willing to help. My daughter will be working part time to cover her living expenses but not enough to pay tuition. I have a good job. Things might be tight but with the grace of God, I can do it. Her father has already said he will no longer support her. Please keep us in your prayers and ask God to guide us through this season. We truly need it!
My son is nearing 30 and just finished medical school. He will be going to do residency in June. Please pray that all his efforts will be blessed and he finds someone to share his life with. He grew up watching his father emotionally abuse me and I'm afraid of the pattern repeating. He has never shown signs of it but I want to pray for protection of him. He's such a kind person and I want the best for his life.
My 22 year old daughter will be living with her brother in Boston this coming Fall while furthering her education. I know they love each other as I raised them that way but I want them to have a good relationship and connect with one another as siblings and friends. They are both 7 years apart and really didn't grow up in the same generation which made it hard to connect but I hope this will be a time where they can bond and become close.I lived my entire life trying to have a good relationship with my siblings. It was hard as our mother was an alcoholic who turned us all against each other for her own benefit which is a whole different story. It hurt me a lot that I missed out on having a solid relationship with my siblings. So it means even more to me to see my kids love and support each other. The age difference always made it a little difficult for them to bond. Please pray for both of them.
I work for a very large company that has had massive layoffs in the past three months. For now I am safe but I really need prayers to stay employed as I am leaving an an emotionally abusive marriage and hoping to leave him soon. I need this income to survive on my own. I have been seeking other employment as well. Please pray for God's mercy over me. I'm not trying to gain sympathy but I have been through so much and feel like I am hanging by a thread. If I lose this job, I will have to depend on my abuser and I can't even imagine what that will be like.
My son and his girlfriend broke up. They are both 29 years old and in medical school. I believe the challenges of studying has taken a toll on both of them and added more stress to their lives. It's affected their relationship and my entire family is so sad. We loved this girl so much and hate to see this happen. She fit so perfectly in our family. Please pray for God's will in this situation. Even if it means they don't find their way back to each other, I want the best for both of them. I pray they find the right people for them. They are both good people.
God has been so good to me in so many areas of my life. All I ask for is that he guides my two adult children in the way they should go. Both are hard working people still in school and working towards careers in medicine. I am happy that they are responsible people. I pray that God continues to guide them. My son will be in residency at a hospital so he will be making a salary. But my daughter will be in grad school and tuition is not be cheap. I'm still paying my student loans after 20 years and don't want her in that same situation but we will do whatever the Lord guides us to do. Please pray that God provides direction and clarity.
My 22 year old daughter is in a relationship with a very sweet young man and they seem to care for each other deeply. I am not sure where the relationship will go but who ever she ends up with as a life partner, I want God's hand in it as she grew up watching her father emotionally and mentally abuse me and I don't want her to think this is what a relationship should be like.
My 22 year old daughter suffers from anxiety and depression. I believe it stems from emotional abuse from her father. She doesn't like to be around him as he caused us all so much stress especially when she was growing up. He was controlling and was more like a bully than a father. I am so worried that will has effected her in many areas of her life. She is coming home for her college summer break and we are both anxious how the summer will go. Please pray for her. Pray for us!
Please pray for my adult children. They both have a fractured relationship with their father, no fault of theirs. Our children are good people and I am proud of the who they have become. My husband, I believe has a mental disorder that was never diagnosed or treated. Although he loves his children, he ruled with an iron fist most of their lives. He never hit them but the words he used most of their lives and the silent treatment was just as damaging. He has a bad temper and no one can talk to him about the damage this has done. My son tried to speak to him about this many times and my husband explodes into a tempter tantrum. My kids don't want any contact with him but both are still in college and come home for breaks. It's really difficult on them and me. I don't know why I stayed with him. He's damaged all of us. Please please pray for God to intervene.
