A young man needs your prayers ... Alcoholism

My family need your prayers and blessigs from our Lord...
There are member's of my family with a alcoholism,
But one has it really bad.
A bright, well educated, upstanding young man,
Who works everyday ...
A good person all around but for this.
We are very worried for his health and well being.
And for the health and well being of his parents,
As it has been really hard on them to find this out also.
They are very supporting and want so bad to help.
But he wants to beat it on his own and wants no help from anyone.
This is very hurtful to his mother and ripping at her heart.
So I ask for prayers for him and the family and I know with your prayers we will see this though.
Thank you ever so much ... A sister in prayer

Dear prayer brothers and sisters.
Praise the Lord .........
Just a little up date to let you know your prayers must be helping.
He is doing better. He hasn't had a drink for over 6 weeks. He is on edge a lot but he trying so hard. He working a lot of over time to take his mind off things. He has made a few new friends who do not drink and they are helping him though this also. He has come so far. So we see the power of prayer and God working in his life. So please keep him in your prayers and pray he doesn't back slide. Thank you all my friends.
I pray God blesses you and keep you in his loving hands. Amen

Just to lend you my hand for this I pray for Gods care to heal whatever reason behind brings or brought him to his addiction and that he is guided whenever being temptated and that even if he may fail to resist that he will never give up but just forgive himself and never lose courage and trust in himself to be always able to get back the right track and not shuting off gods love with blame and guilt, 6 weeks is a good sign for a start and proves his strength, but however it continues may god give him the guidance to accept help whenever neccessary and heal his whole family from all wounds and pain from the past.

I pray that God continues to sustain this man on his journey to break free from alcholism. I also pray that he allows God to decide if He wants him to get outside help. It's tough to break addiction on one's own. I pray that God leads him to a good support group, such as AAA and I pray that GOd helps this man keep his mind free and clear ..totally takes away the desire for alchohol. I pray that his family is lifted up and that God brings peace to them as they watch their son struggle through this. In Jesus name..amen
