Need advice about family effects of divorce

[Tru_Knyte]

Hey guys. This is kinda hard for me to type because I'm still having trouble accepting it but here goes. My mom and dad may be separating after 20 some odd years of marraige (long story) and while I'm in my 20s and my sister is a couple of years younger than me I still have some concerns about what life would be like if this goes through. I'm still living at home until I'm done school (should be about a couple of years till I'm finished).

So if any parents could give me advice of what I should do, or those whose parents divorced I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks guys. :)

The absolutely most important thing is for you to not allow either of them to get you to take sides. They are both your parents. If either of them puts you in the position of having to choose between them, you have to stand your ground and absolutely refuse. If you wish to take sides on your own, that is your choice and is up to you. But do not allow either of them to coerce you to takes sides against your will.

You said they maybe separating. Let's pray that the Lord will intervene with wisdom and knowledge and a new found love for each other for your parents. Satan is truly busy wrecking families...we have to pull together in prayer and bind and cast out those evil spirits that are breaking up our families. Lord, we pray that YOU put up YOUR hedge of protection around this couple that binds and blocks all evil spirits trying to steal, kill, and destroy their lives and that of their family. Send YOUR angels to take charge of them and lift them up so that they may have protection from the evil one. Father, YOU are all powerful and we that you are in control. We come to YOU as intercessors for this couple. We pray that YOU reconcile them in the covenant of a loving marriage. Father, YOU said that we recieve not, because we ask not. Well, we are asking for YOU to stretch out YOUR mighty arm and bring this marriage back stronger than ever. We pray these things in Jesus' name. Amen.:pray::pray:

It ain't over, yet. Keep the faith!!! Are they Christians? If so, dig into the Word and find scriptures that apply to the situation...Remember, the Bible is our blueprint for this life!!! Amen.

God Bless:hug:

Thanks guys. Fortuantely both have made a point of not trying to get us on their side.

And my dad is, and my mom used to go to Church with us too, but I don't know anymore. :S

Pray for your parents. As long as the divorce isn't finalized, there is always hope. God hates divorce, and He is well able to turn even the most dire situations around and put rocky relationships back on solid ground.
