My last post here...probably for good.

Hi guys...this is my last post here on The Petra Zone. A lot of circumstances have led to this, and none of them good.

As you guys know, in October 2005, my wife and I were divorced. My wife fell in love with a married man, and wanted to be with him instead of me. He promised her that he would divorce his wife AFTER she divorced me. Suffice to say, she followed through on her end, but he didn't on his. He never got divorced, and they broke up.

In February 2006, my wife asked me if I wanted to reconcile. I leapt at the chance, not only to try to restore my marriage, but also return a sense of normalcy to my now 5-year-old daughter's life. Our daughter was so happy when I moved back in, and I really thought my wife and I could work things out and possibly get remarried.

Fast forward to Now...January 2007. Well, my wife does not want to continue the reconciliation, and last night, she told me to "get the **** out of her house by Monday!". She lives in a duplex, and when I moved back in, she never put my name on the lease. So I have to move by Monday, January 8.

Worse still, my wife has decided to rekindle her romance with the married man she originally left me for. He is still married, and he's been feeding her a line of crap that "this time, he will definitely get the divorce.". I told my wife that he will NEVER divorce his wife, and that she should get used to being "the other woman", because that is all she'll ever be to him. He is too afraid to get a divorce, because he and his wife have 3 kids together, and he doesn't want to be stuck for a ton of child support.

Anyway, I am moving in with my Mom and her boyfriend down in Lacona, IA (they don't have a computer). It sucks because I will have to give up my job I have here in Des Moines because I can't afford to drive from Lacona to Des Moines everyday (it's a 45 minute drive one way). Half of my paycheck would be going to pay for gas, the other for child support. I hope to find a job soon either in Indianola or Chariton. Please pray that Jesus Christ will strengthen me through the next few months...I don't know how often my Mom or I will be able to see my daughter, and I could use all the prayer help I can get.

Here's is my address if anyone wants to write to me...

Im so but so sorry to hear this.... Receive all our hugs and prayers man.

Dont say this is the last time, dont say goodbye but see you later, youll get back to the zone in the right time


I dont know if you will get to see this and if you dont, I pray you at least can feel The Lord`s Presence when I make this prayer:

Lord Jesus, you know Jim, you know what he is going through and I can totally see you have been with him all the time, I can see that he is a strong man in you and that enemy hates that and wants to discourage him.

Lord, carry him on this hard time, that he can feel your arms over him through all this situation.

Put peace in his heart, fill him with a peace that is beyond understanding, give him the hope he needs to move on to the great things you have for him.

Lord, that this new year be a year of miracles Lord, that through this spiritual war he can your mighty hand fighting for him Lord and be able to experience the awesome victory you can only give. Surprise him Lord, reveal yourself in a whole new way to him, that this be a supernatural year on his life.


Lord I also want to ask you for his little daughter, all this up and downs on her parents relationship has been hard for her. Lord, fill her with your love, give her the strenght she needsm send angels to surround her right now and minister to her.

Lord, I also want to pray for his ex wife Lord, she is in such a mess!!!! Lord, I just want to ask you to open her eyes, to work in her heart so she can see in the big mess she is. In Jesus name I say to any spirit of divorce, of adultery to leave her in Jesus name and I declare her eyes will be open this year and will ran away from that big mistake she is doing. I ask you Lord to give her the wisdom to raise her daughter through all this separation thing Lord and that the whole family be focus on you.


In Jesus name I pray and thank you for what you will do, AMEN.

Well, Elo said it all, but I will say that really sucks. Hang in there, and never say never. I know I'll write you, and I bet Elo will too.

Word of advice: If the wife should decide she wants to get together again, DON'T. Sorry, I just had to throw that in. 'Nuff about that though, that's just my opinion.

You're in my prayers.
