I understand what you're going through as I have been there myself. I eventually left and moved back home. I tolerated the verbal and mental abuse for 8 years but I knew I needed to leave as my 4 year old son was being affected. Know that God will protect you and your children. I took out a TRO and eventually got divorced. God was good to me in providing an attorney through Domestic Violence Clearinghouse, awarded me custody and child support payments. Through the whole process, God was there holding my hand and he always provided what I needed. I pray that you will God will intercede and that you will seek a shelter if you have nowhere to go. A few says after I left, I went into hiding because of fear he would come after me. I stayed at a friend's home and I also had to start a new job at that time. With suitcases in my car I went to work. It was $9/hour part-time. I am now in a high paying Federal job. Though all the difficulties be faithful and believe that God will provide you the strength and provide for all your needs. The TRO has expired but now we can talk on good terms.

Jennifer,
I am so sorry that you're in a very unhappy marriage. I feel privileged to pray for you and I will. I pray that God will relieve you from this man in a safe way and that you will finally be able to enjoy your life.
I know from experience that God hears all prayers, especially those like yours where the need is strong.
I hope you will be feeling better soon. Keep praying and staying close to our Lord, for He cares for you and wants the very best for you...
