Dad struggling to afford court costs, bills.

I had to do this a year ago and unfortunately, I'm at that point again. I have done a lot of healing, my sons who were out of my life for years now live with me, and I have a job where I'm very close to home. I work very hard but with the child support the court ordered, I can't keep up.

This is very hard for me to ask for help but I don't know what else to do.

My name is Nathan. Recently my wife filed for divorce and moved out. Between legal costs and missing work, I'm having a very hard time keeping up with bills.

I'm not a perfect man but I love my children and will do anything I can to support them and raise them to the best of my ability.

This has emotionally devastated me. Triggered PTSD and anxiety attacks. If I didn't have the support I did from church, I feel like I couldn't have made it this far. I've tried my best to pour into others my whole life. Now I'm reaching for a lifeline.

Thank you and God bless.
