New Life

[Guest guest]

Friends,

Please help me with your collective good prayers. I was a newlywed last December

who just split from her husband because he was not ready to be a man. In

February, I became very ill and needed to have emergency, life-saving surgery

(gall bladder removed). When I was in pain on the floor, he did not move from

his computer so I had to call my Mother in the middle of the night who quickly

arrived and delivered me to the Emergency room where my life was saved from a

ruptured gall bladder attack. I soon became well again yet my energy was

constantly being drained by living in fear - I felt that I shouldered all of the

responsibility of my newlywed husband's and my new life. The rent, electricity,

and internet were all under my name and I became the debt police every month,

and even fronted all of the bills. Soon I became turned off and no longer in

love because he wouldnt/couldnt offer me any financial or emotional safety and

security. He seemed to go on strike as a husband and tested me to see how much I

could take and how little he would do; seems he expected me to do everything for

him, like his work-horse mother did for him.

I left the apt. and moved back into my Mom's loving home in nature.

I love this home very much and want to stay here yet it is in foreclosure and I

do not know what will happen in a few months or where my Mother, our animals,

and I live. I am a freelance video producer who usually does well yet lately has

a dry spell and am constantly looking for work. I would like to go to Grad

School to become a college professor at a respected University where I may

impart my experience and passions of filmmaking as well as the history of the

Renaissance in Florence, Italy onto the next generation.

I need your prayers to help my Mother and I keep our home and have a safe place

to live. I also need to apply, be accepted and attend Grad school peacefully and

further live the dream of ongoing travel to Florence and teaching.

I also pray that my former husband finds strength and self-love so that he can

be happy. I want joy in my life and to be with someone who is willing to do his

share and be nurturing. Please help.
