Please protect my friend Chad from abusive marriage.

Dear God. Please protect and guide my friend Chad who is in a terribly abusive marriage.  Usually it’s a woman who is the abused one, but in this case, it’s the man.  Because he’s a man, he’s even more lost and afraid – so afraid that the courts will side with his wife because she’s the “mother” and will have his children taken away!  He’s terrified!  If anyone is willing to help pray for him, I would really appreciate it.
