Please pray for my only child. He's 24. He's left God and is involved with a girl who has a very bad influence on him. She is emotionally disturbed. They do drugs and live in sin. Pray my son split with her and come running back to Christ. (He used to love to read and used to want to be an evangelist, now he does neither.)
My relationship with him has been strained for many years, he doesn't respect me, behaves rudely towards me and is unloving. I am deeply saddened by this and burdened that my son isn't in college, doesn't have a stable job or business and doesn't have a car nor does he show any signs of straightening up. It appears to me that he is following in his dad's (my ex) footsteps - a loser in every way and a drug addict. My heart is shattered by my own son and I can't help to wonder how my life would have turned out had I not had this baby because it's been an extreme struggle from day 1. My insecure ex-husband drugged me to get me pregnant in an attempt to keep me in a failing marriage and I couldn't bring myself to get an abortion. I had a hard pregnancy and delivery, a hard marriage then divorced, a hard time raising him as a single mom (without any child support), I was extremely ill and poor but I did the best I can. I hurt inside when others tell me of their kids success or kindness because I have nothing good to say.
Wow I hate thinking about all this, it's so depressing.
Thanks for your prayers!
