Prayer Request from Guy

I am currently going through a divorce. My wife of 7 years and I have been seperated for 4 months now. We have the most wonderful 5 year old daughter together. She also has a 12 year son that I have helped raise since he was 4 that I love as my own son. In Oct of last year I found out abruptly that my wife had been having an affair since Feb of that same year. I was devastated. At first I handled it surprisingly well. Although, now I know that I was numb from all the pain. I even went as far to offer reconciliation thru marriage counseling. However, my wife refused. She asked me to leave our house and after careful consideration for the children’s lives, I moved out. The last few months have been pure hell. In order to avoid as much hurt to the children I have tried to remain as quiet as possible about our seperation. However, living in a small town rumors are now swirling. I’ve even heard that I was the one having the affair. I’ve had to resign my position on the deacon board at our church. Our finances are nearly in ruin. And my wife is still in a relationship with the same man that she had the affair with. Please pray that God will take the pain away or at least make it bearable. Pray that I recognize what the Lord is directed me to do. Pray that my children can be at peace. Thank you and God bless.
