This is so simple and not. We are here as fellow believers to encourage you in your challenge. YeHoVaH does have you and us in his hands; it is His plan. Paul had this covered in his letter to the believers in Philippi:
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
Praying is listening to YeHoVaH. Sharing your questions. Waiting, trusting YeHoVaH in His plan. Paul goes on with some tools for us.
Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.
Yes, challenges are still in front of you. YeHoVaH’s ways are not just giggles and comfy feelings. He loves us and wants us to grow and learn. Growing and learning can hurt. The hurt is not fun, the understanding and change is worth it. These tools from Paul give us focus on the tools to our challenges.
By day YeHoVaH directs His love, at night his song is with me—a prayer to the God of my life.

Please pray for me. I am a mom of two busy college students, and I completed my master’s degree three years ago while working in a very stressful field. I met a man named Richard, and we truly fell in love, but our relationship has been deeply painful at times.
Early in our relationship, he continued communicating with an ex for over a year, which caused a great deal of heartbreak and insecurity for me. Although we reconciled and have had two better years together filled with travel and good memories, there have still been struggles with trust, emotional safety, and hurtful communication.
When upset, he can say very harsh and cutting things that are difficult to forget. There are also ongoing issues involving his ex-wife and unhealthy boundaries that continue to create stress and emotional turmoil in our relationship and daily life.
I carry a heavy emotional load between work, family responsibilities, and trying to hold this relationship together. Please pray for wisdom, peace, discernment, emotional healing, healthy boundaries, and clarity for both of us. Please also pray that truth, stability, kindness, and emotional safety would prevail in every area of this situation.
