Prayer in divorce court

Karen Walsh

FOR MANY YEARS I worked as an employee relations specialist for a medium-sized company. During the late '80s and early '90s our company, like many others, went through numerous reorganizations that resulted in laying off large numbers of employees. Most of these displaced employees left peacefully, if not disappointed. But some were angry and even threatening. In all of these difficult situations, the anger would dissipate, though, often after a great deal of prayer on my part, and things would be resolved smoothly and satisfactorily.

Despite being closely involved with these situations, none of the experience I had had could begin to prepare me for the frequent, in-your-face encounters I was to have with a then emotionally unstable and volatile husband.
