A Prayer Request....

I am in need of a huge prayer request. My sister and her husband have had a rough time this past year; the night before last, my brother-in-law had my sister served with divorce papers in a parking lot of a restaurant. There is little doubt in my mind that this divorce will be messy and ugly as there are restraining orders and temporary custody of my little niece and two little nephews has been given to my brother-in-law. (They have three little children who are 8,7 and 3.) I know in my heart that those little ones are scared, hurt and don't understand the actions of their parents the past few days and don't understand why they can't see their Mommy. Robert and i have offered to take the children until their school year starts to give everyone some distance to let them work on things without having the children near to witness all of this drama and let us just love on them~but i don't think that my brother-in-law will agree to that.

I'm so very afraid that this all will get much worse before it gets better.....and other than pray, i don't know how to help. It's so very sad to see this marriage which seemed to be so strong at one time, fall apart at the seams....they've been married almost 15 years.

Please keep my sister's family on your prayer list....i am at a loss of how to help them.
