Dear sister, I know where your heart is. I too have a son 26 who after coming out of a divorce just a couple of months ago has returned to living a life that is not of God. I, like you know the pain and fear that you have worring about his life and pray that God will touch the lives of both of our sons and bring them safely back to His will. My heart truly goes out to you.I see you have been blessed with a beautiful grandaughter. My son and his ex wife had a rocky marriage from the start and lost a beautiful baby boy at birth about 3 years ago. I had thought that experience would change my sons heart forever, but satan never tires of trying to destroy. I am praying that God will hear our prayers to bring our sons to His will and rescue them from the evil one who only wants to see them on a path of pain. I know that our God is faithful and He knows our hearts desire for our children. I have the same problem of letting go and letting God, so i pray that God will give us both the strength and peace that we need to place them into His hands and trust His plan for their lives.I know how very difficult that is as i too struggle with this every day. We need to seek Gods face everyday to recieve the peace He wants us to have as mothers. My prayers are with you and your family. Let us remember that Our God is ever present and always faithful to hear the cries of His children. May the power of the blood of Jesus cover our children and keep them in the safety of His loving arms forever. God bless you.
Dear God,
please hear Sheila's prayer for her son, daugther in law and grand child. Extend Your Love to this family and make the parents understand their responsibilities. Let them take the hands that are extended to them and take the offers for help. Let them find strong, caring friends and help groups in order to assist them breaking the vicious circle of addiction. Let them understand that they will have to choose the hard way of saying no instead of giving in to the soft way of drugs. Let them understand that the drugs will only bring misery and destroy their lives. Let them understand that they need to care for their little daugther NOW and let them take the step away from the drug into the responsibility of parenthood. Let them understand that they are not alone and abandoned in their addiction and share their will to get out of it with so many other people. God, we pray for every one who is willing to get out of addiction, to be brave and take the step, walk on there and hang in there until it is overcome. You have the strength, protect them and guard them to be strong. Give your encouragement, they need you more than ever. Amen
Dear Shelia, My heart goes out to you. I pray that God will break the bonds of addiction that endanger this family. I pray for you to as a suffering mother trying to do the right thing. May God send you swift relief and wisdom. He is the Vine and we are the branches. May his life force flow powerfully through you and into the lives of this family. I ask this in the name of Jesus
Lord hear this mother's request for her son and his family. Lord, please Brooklyn needs her mom and dad to be whole and strong. Please Lord Jesus, we ask you to give him the strength to throw off the yoke of addiction and for his wife to be healed of he co-dependency. Please Lord heal this family and give them what they need to get through this. St. Jude we call on you to pray for them In Jesus's holy name, we pray. Amen
May the Lord bless your son and his family and guide them through their time of need.
Sheila, my heart and prayers go out to you and your family. My son (35 yrs. old) also is an addict estranged from his wife and children. Thank dear Jesus their mother is healthy and sober and takes good care of them. I know you must be tired of people telling you to pray but I recommend that you pray the chaplet of mercy. You can find out about it on the web, just type in "Chaplet of Mercy". Also, I am just now learning about adding fasting to my prayers which I'm told adds great power to our prayers. Let us do these things together for our sons and may our Lord Jesus hear our cries and heal our children both physically and spiritually. God be with you.
Ann
We pray for your son that he finds the help he needs from the community where he is living and that he fully understands what he is doing to his family and that he is ready to seek help. I cannot begin to understand the pain you are going through, but I can pray to Jesus that you find the help you need and peace in your life. We further pray that what was taken from you will be restored. God bless and good luck!
I understnad how it is being associated with an addict, my step father was an addict and he used to abuse me and my mother and has neglected his son,my little brother, in many ways. I know it is hard but please stay strong, just remember you're not the only one going through this, you are not alone, I willkeep you in my prayers.
Lord
Please help this family. Help this mans mother to stay strong and not give up or lose hope. Keep this mans daughter safe and do not let him become so addicted that he ends up harming her. Help his wife to be strong and help him but at the same time keep her and her child safe from harms way. Please do not let this family go trough more than they already have. Amen
Sheila, Dear I feel so much for Your situation, I too Have a Son that has been in the same state. He is 53 years old I am seventy now. and I can't believe all these years have gone by, and I still can't trust him .His mind has been damaged by the Drugs, and He is nothing like He was growing up. It Hurts a Mother so much to see Your child like this. I have had to stay away from my Son to have any peace at all. I keep Praying for Him. but everytime I try to help him , it just seems hopeless.
I did not see him for almost Two years, I worried the whole tme.
praying and hopeing that He was OK, and that God would protect him. I have been asking for prayer for him tonight. You sound so brave, but I know the pain in Your Heart. And I pray Your Son will be healed of this before it destroys him and the
Beautiful Family . God Bless You and all You Love .

Lord, shine Your light on this family. Give this worried mother a sense of peace and give her the strength to forgive and to let go. Touch her son Lord. Bind up any and all evil that is influencing his life. Touch her daughter-in-law and begin to do a work in heart that she might be a living testimony of Your great work. I pray that You would protect their daughter Brooklyn. Lord, I just pray for a recovery and healing in this family. Amen.
Yes I will be in total agreement for this request for prayer. And remember the darkest hour is just before the Light. God bless you all.
