Though this topic is only coming from a general personal experience, we cannot speak or advocate for everyone. We also, would like to say we know it can also be a very sensitive topic due to the heartache and/or in some cases relief it can bring to a sad situation when it comes to marriage separations. We pray that God will continue to heal and restore marriages and would guide those who may be struggling so that HIS WILL be done and not our own. We declare "in Jesus name!" Matt 19:6 over every marriage and relationship. God is hope in any hopeless situation and can make all things new.
Please find these resources below helpful, if you are in desperate need and/or find your marriage in a rough patch that may call for mediation. Blessings!
