A coworker at my job is going through a very hard trial and I want to offer her sitution up for anyone to pray for. Thankyou for anyone who does.

The sitution is basically this. Her daughter, 19 years old, just recently had a baby. But right now the sitution that is unfolding is where trying to do right and hold on to the baby is becoming harder and harder. My friend's daughter is with a boyfriend that is a bad influence that she runs to when he calls. He's the baby's father, but he also shows no concern for the baby and is in an enviornment of drugs. So with the father, the concern is real that if the mother doesn't choose between her boyfriend or her baby daughter, then social services will take her child away. The first prayer I ask is for the baby to be taken care of and protected, and that her mom gets serious with what's going on so to not lose her daughter.

From there my friend at work tells several issues that make this even more difficult. From issues of her husband not wanting to raise another child and that if she chooses to stick by her daughter and granddaughter, he will leave. (Not her first marriage, but still a shock of no support). A second issue was almost a solution with a cousin that might be willing to help, but apparently the help offered is to take the granddaughter and forbid the mother to be able to visit. Since then the cousin has shown more malice in trying to tell the social worker helping how horrible the mother and grandmother are. The third issue is the social worker also. Instead of trying to help and let them find solutions, the social worker on the case makes appointments for the mom and grandma (my coworker) on short notice during times that she's scheduled at work.

With this in mind the second ongoing issue is that through this they don't seem to have any support thought it.

Please keep my friend's daughter and grand daughter in your prayers. And keep my friend I. Your prayers too. She's trying to help manage all of this all on her own it seems.

Such a lot of worry going on for your co-worker Not_Now.Soon . The poor little baby oblivious to it all. They will all be in my prayers. Praying that daughter and her boyfriend will have their softened towards their precious daughter, also that your co-worker gets more support from her husband and the cousin stops causing trouble. Really hope and pray for a good outcome and the safety of baby who deserves to be loved by all her family
God Bless you for caring Not_Now.Soon

Truth be told, I probably wouldn't know much of what is happening until my wife started working where I work. She and the coworker really bonded. Thanks for the prayers.
 
What a sad story all the way around. All involved are in my prayers.

I believe God has put you and your wife in this woman's path for a reason. I pray you and your wife speak truth in love to this woman and her daughter and that your light shines so bright the path in which they should travel through these trying times will become apparent.
