Sister headed in the wrong direction
A while back my younger sister, 25, decided she wanted Christ in her life. It was a while after that that she realized she still wasn't pursuing Him enough, or really at all but recognized that she needed to. She made a new years resolution to go to church but of course has not attended once. Instead she has decided that she wants a party life even though she has a husband and a young son, 3. She drinks like a fish and is flirting and kissing guys. She has a bad history with partying as it is. She's been in the hospital for alcohol poisoning and has had an ankle monitor on issued by the police. Her husband is not a believer and had made many many mistakes but he has changed over the last 6 months and is trying to fight for her and their family. He even said he wanted to go to church too!! She just wants a divorce now. You can see how there were about to be 3 lives affected for the better here. Lives being brought into the kingdom, but now she's just fallen into the deep end and my entire family is worried about her.
I ask you to pray that she will come to her senses and see that what she was about to choose is way better than the road she is headed down. Help her to see that she can get those "feelings" back for her husband. And I ask that she will become the mighty woman of God that He has intended for her to be and that these bad parts of her life can be used as a platform for ministry when she overcomes this!! God will finish the work He has started in her and her little family and I just pray that it will not take a horrible situation to bring her to her knees!!!
OH, I also wanted to add that we need to pray that she will be able to quit drinking and quit craving the attention of men!!! God wants to do this. I pray for His glory to rain down on the situation and for all to see that He has caused the changes to happen and that others will come to know Him through this. It truly is at an impossible situation right now. I'm just glad we have a God that prefers the "impossible" situations. Bring on the glory Father!!!!!! WE LOVE YOU AND WE THANK YOU FOR TAKING CARE OF US AND FOR WANTING TO HELP US!!!!!!

RE: Sister headed in the wrong direction
Lord this rebellious sister is in much pain and looking to fill herself up with things that do not satisfy. Lord you are the only one who can fill the hole in our lives. Sometimes our family and children are not enough. I know this well. When the pain inside is so severe then the outside flesh takes our mind off our pain if only for a moment. Lord, you know that this is a lonely empty life and I pray that she will reach the bottom so that she will finally look up and see your face filled with love for her. Keep her in your care Lord. Amen
