Yes, please pray for my son and his family, that their hearts and minds be opened to faith and believing that God’s word is real! To not look at the worldly ideas but to God as truth!!
God created everything good, in fact very good (Gen 1:31). But something happened to mar that image. For in creating us in hi image, God also gave us the freedom to choose our own way over God’s. By the third chapter of Genesis our ancestors had already exercised that prerogative in a self-destructive way. To be created in the image of God means that we must look to him for our meaning, purpose and direction. It also makes us thinking, feeling, willing, relational creatures who reflect these attributes of our creature.

With Prayers
My now ex-husband deserted me and my sons 13 years ago now. He was in an adulterous affair, and married the woman within 2 years of divorcing me. The ink was barely dry on our divorce papers. The hurt he inflicted on me and my sons is immeasurable. My sons and I have never been right since he left. Every now and then, God puts it on my heart that way back when he first left us, I prayed with all of my might that God would restore my marriage. I was involved in support groups with people in similar situations, and most everyone has moved on. My ex now tells me he ‘has many regrets’ and wishes he could turn back the hands of time’. I know he’s not happy, and have been told this by others, as well as him. Both he and the woman he left me for were married when their relationship began. Should I still be praying for the restoration of this relationship? I have never been with another man since him…have had a few close friendships, but nothing else. I prayed a hedge of thorns around him for awhile, actually saw the fruits of my prayers, but then gave up. He was not ever good to me. I hear he and she are going to a church together now. Please…I need advice and opinions. Thank you and God bless you!

Touch our hearts Lord, bring my husband back to you. Only You can help him get rid of his addictions. I pray that he repents and with Your Grace put You first then everything will follow. Our marriage will be saved and family restored, and with Your Will grow. God please give me the patience to wait for that, to Trust in You. Please touch everyone here, all families that have been hurt especially those suffering from betrayal and addiction.
