Please pray

I know I have asked prayer for my sister since the summer as her marriage began falling apart.  Well - it has truly fallen apart but God has been faithful and been her stronghold.  She is learning to hold on and her soon to be ex-husband is far from God and has done some very sad and hurtful things.  It has been a very long ordeal on our family.  I have not gone through a family crisis before with my extended family and the strain is great.  Tomorrow is a court appearance regarding custody.  Please pray the judge will see the truth.  God is truth and my sister is telling the truth.  The judge needs discernment and wisdom.  She needs a calmness and a peace to know she is not in the wrong and has not sought this at all.  She has been forced to respond to a crisis due to someone elses behavior.  She is also beginning to come out of the "victim" mindset and that is a difficult thing to realize.  It has given me a new appreciation for women who have endured marriages that I can't understand.  It has helped me not be so judgemental towards people when I don't know what they go through or what kind of unhealthy and unbiblical mindset they have been trapped into.  So, for all the women who have endured this and come out the other end - to God be the glory.  Keep trusting in him and he will deliver you.  Sometimes your delivery isn't necessarily what you think it should be either so seek God's plan for your future.

I pray that it works out for your sister. My husband has dealt with the custody battle on and off for 10 years. Once this is decided it will not be over. I'm so sorry that she has to endure such a situation. Bless her heart.

I am sorry that she is having a hard time; I know custody issues are really hard on families. I will pray that the judge is fair and just and that only the best possible thing for your sister and the kids will occur!
