Prayer For My Son

[caressa]

Please pray for my son. He is a very dark place right now. No matter what happens in his life, it is always somebody else's fault. He has a lot of fear and very little desire to live.

No matter how hard life has gotten, I know that with God
there is hope.... I just pray that your Son will reach out
for help and hope. A councilor, clergy, AA or any and all
would be there to listen and not judge....

I am sending prayers up for you and your Son

Hugs, SG

Thanks SG. He has a date tonight. I don't even want to think about it. I just detach and tell myself, let him do his own thing and walk his own journey.

I can't wrap him up in bubble wrap.

This week has been difficult. It was bad enough that I didn't want to see him or speak to him. When he got back from his spree, he shut the door on himself. It was one of the saddest holidays I have experienced, worse that the year he went out west.

As they say, he has to go through his consequences. Continued prayers please, for him and for me.

He is not a child, but he expects me to be mother and do for him. I have to keep reinforcing boundaries.

My son went out on another binge. He talked detox for the second time, but I think it was said more because he thinks that is what I want to hear, rather than an honest desire to go there.

Sending prayer's for your Son...

My son is still in active addiction. Like all diseases, it has progressed. He has been to treatment, and he chooses to continue to use.

All I can do is to continue to pray and work my program.

Very much a one day at a time thing, for him and for me.

[majestyjo]

My son is working part time and living in a shelter. He still refuses to go into recovery and that is his choice.

Life is a daily prayer putting him into God's hands, and me put me into God's Hands so that I don't put my hands on my son.

My son is waiting for the snow to be gone to get back to work. He gets very depressed when he isn't working. Yet he is still caught up in his addiction, and work just means money to continue to use. Please keep him in your prayers.

[majestyjo]

Ironically, the snow is gone, he started back to work this past week and now he is waiting for his first pay check.

He arrived at my door tonight after having a few beers with his last Welfare check. He said, "Remember I am working now Mom." I said, "Yes, I know son, that doesn't mean you come by when you have money in your pocket.

Continued prayers as always. It makes me sad when he knows.
