Please pray for my son

Please continue to pray for my son 19 year old son JM. JM continues to turn to drugs and alcohol. Last week he was beaten up while attending a party. This week he has to have major surgery to repair 3 broken bones.... My husband and I can't take too much more. Please ask God to help JM realize that he is ruining his life. Please pray that JM turns his life around and ask for God's help. JM has gone to church all his life and even attended a religious school. We need a miracle! Our hearts are broken. Please pray that JM turns to God for help.

Update - 8 months ago:

JM is having surgery on Friday morning. Even though he has 3 broken bones in his face, he continues to pary with his friends.... I am heartbroken. When will he turn to God?? When will he get tired of living the way he is living? We need a miracle.... Please pray that something scares him enough that he turns to God and asks for help. Thank you for your prayers....

Update - 7 months ago:

Thank you to everyone who has been praying for my son JM. The doctors worked on JM for 5 1/2 hours today. Afterwards we were told that he is a very lucky young man. The bone the doctor repaired is just above the eye (bone is the orbital bone) - it is the hardest bone on the skull. JM is very lucky that he didn't lose his eye and very, very lucky that he did not suffer brain damage. Please continue to pray that JM turns towards our Lord and turns away from his partying friends. My husband and I are falling apart. I worry about JM's life after life. I pray that he will be saved. thank you for all of your prayers. I look forward to the day that I can pray for everyone on this site and not have to ask for prayers in return.

Update - 7 months ago:

JM is healing physically. Please pray that this attack causes JM to re-evaluate his life. I pray that this attack makes JM realize that he needs God in his life and needs to run away from the group he hangs around with.... Please continue to pray for a miracle for us - we need it before we lose our son completely. Thank you.

Update - 4 months ago:

JM seems to be growing up a little bit after the attack. We just found out the father of the young man who attacked JM is in prison for murder. We are very lucky that my son was not killed. JM
continues to hang around with the same group of friends. Please pray that JM turns to God and begs for help. I won't be able to rest until I know JM has turned to God and asked for help in his life.

Most loving God,
we ask your blessing upon all
who suffer from addiction.
Strengthen them to reach out for help.
Enable them to take the first step to recovery.
Bless them with the persistence to persevere
in the fight to be free.
Give courage and hope to their families,
drawing them close together
in the power of your love,
which alone can transform our living.

Amen.

Dear God, I ask in the name of your son who died on the cross for our sins that you should guide the hands of the surgeons who today work on JM. While he is recovering I ask that you send your loving Angels to wrap their arms around his heart and open his eyes to the destruction that is coaused by his addiction. I ask that you should make drugs vile unto him. make JM despise the use of drugs and those people who he used with. i ask that you should lead him out of this bondage and bring him back to the Church and family that love him. Use JM as a healed soul for the work of Jesus Christ. Allow JM to heal, turn away from drugs and minister to others who are using. I ask that you should intervene now so that he can bring love and light to others who are in bondage.

Dear God I ask that you heal the heart and wounds of March Mom. It is hard for her to understand how all of this can work to your glory. Please sooth her mind and soul and bring peace to her heart. Please, Lord hear our prayers and show us how we should battle this drug issue that invades our lives. We love you and want to do your will, please make your messgae clear to us.

Amen

Dear Marchmom, you know what I have learnt in the last few days - to detach myself from my son in order that I can get through one day at a time - I cry in my heart daily for my son, as I do my job - it is like an out of body experience - I know what you are going through and it does not matter what anyone says only you know what you and your husband is feeling. Somehow we have to let go - God is not asleep - I do not know why all over the world our children are going through something that is ripping the family unit apart -the boys more than the girls - my heart burns every day for my son and for everyone elses I read about on this site - you know what I have decided to do, just begin to praise God, lets acknowledge him for the things he has done, rather than the things he has not done (yet)- Father I lift up yet another mother and father into your presence in relation to their son - what can be said that has not been said already - the enemy is running riot in the lives of our kids - trying to prevent a future generation coming into their own - trying to destroy yet another son who came to you at an early age - but you God - you have your finger on the pulse - your eyes are on JM - your hands and your angels are not far behind him. Lord I know that there is a time coming when you are going to bless each and every family, who is experiencing this problem with the kids - i know a birth is about to take place and miracles will be taking place all over the world - we just have to hold on - so Lord I am begging you - strengthen this mother and father at this time, hold them - keep their health strong that this does not cause them to break - give them peace and rest - but most of all - surround them in that unconditional love of yours and pray Lord that the blood of Jesus Christ will just enclose their son - you Lord have the last word - only you - the enemy is playing with our kids as if they are on a chess board - but Lord when you say checkmate, he will have to stop - because the war has already been won - this I pray in the name of Jesus - amen xxx

Dear God, Please help JM find health and happiness without self-destruction. Please give his family the strength to see him through this difficult time.

My Son is a walking miracle. I could not take anymore and God knew this. My son has been sober and clean from drugs for almost 2 years. Sometimes things got so bad that I lost my faith. One night he was so drunk that he put a knife to my neck and tried to kill me. the best thing I ever did was have hime arrested and put in jail. In jail he found the Lord and cried out of help. There is hope for you son and I am praying for him knowing your pain. God loves him so much and he hears our cries. trust in God and he will deliver your son for this addiction and make him whole again. My son was also beaten and teeth lost. Many hospitalsand lots of pain...God is ably. God bless you. Dianne

marchmom - 7 months ago: Dianne Ray, Thank you for giving me hope. I can't take too much more. I'm starting to get chest pains and pains in my head. I worry that I won't be around for my other 3 kids and husband. I need a miracle. thank you for your prayers - they mean so much.

Marchmom: I understand your hurting hearts. We have been through so many emotions, but the hurt of what our son is doing to his life cuts deep in our hearts. We know that we raised him as well as we could and he chose to make bad choices. You want to shake them so bad so they will wake up. But they are not listening. It's like how many falls do they need before they awake? I will pray for JM and you and your family. It's not easy, it is so draining--day after day.

"O'Father, thank you for your mercy and grace. I continue to pray for JM that he be awaken before worse things happen. Lord, you know I have a son that keeps doing things he shouldn't. Lord, please give these young men wisdom and the urge to do what is right in life. I also pray that you would guide these parents in dealing with their son. Please provide them with peace. I believe that these tribulations we are going through will pass as long as we have continued faith in you. We Love you Lord, please take care of our young men who need your guidance, your love, and protection, and in your most powerful, holy name, Jesus Christ, I pray for healing for JM and for David Brian Amen."
