My mom is 37 and she's always been afraid to get her license, and she just got her permit today. So I wanna ask that you guys pray for her to stay safe and overcome the fear that's heald her back all the way until now. She really doesn't want to be getting it but God has been laying some heavy stuff on her heart lately and she's been under a lot of stress. Currently she's working full time along with taking classes so that she can be certified as a pastor, and she's been helping out with my youth group. Her stress keeps building and so far she's been able to remain joyful, and I just ask that you could pray that she can just take in everything thrown at her and get through it all.

i will pray.

Hey, haven't seen you much around here.

I'll be praying for her...


...punkette. ;)

yeah, I got bored today and decided to come on here.

Thanks for praying peoples. You rock!

My dad went through something like that.
He was afraid to drive anywhere, or even go outside for about 2 years.
And it was about last year that he officially started doing things on his own.

So I understand what you're going through, and I will pray.

ok, new update on my mom. She's having a really hard time. My step dad is not saved and we both are in agreement that he is currently posessed by a demon. She fasted for three days with no food and no water. Then God called her to go through the house and find everything that didn't glorify God. This has been a very difficult process because Tim my step dad collects action figures and he has a lot of demons and dragons and stuff like that. And she's been grabbing it all and throwing it in a pile. Tim does nothing but yell at her for doing it and telling her how stupid she is. She's also been going through my room and throwing away some of my sci-fi books because she wants out everything that even slightly doesn't glorify Him. It's been hard but we have had a lot of things opening up this week and I know God is working. Within the past three days we have found and thrown away obviously posessed items that my mom had given me when I was younger. Then we started talking about when she had given me these items and realized that most of the items from my childhood she gave me because she thought they were cool while she was going through a phase of messing with witchcraft. The biggest thing for her now is that she has been finding out some horrible things about her childhood. My grandma is not a christian and my mom found out recently that the man she has called her father isn't and that her mom and her supposed father got married after her mom was in an accident and the man she was engaged to. So she's suffering from being lied to all ehr life and finding out that her real father is dead. Also she has two sisters and one brother. The older sister was always the favorite of their father, and so was the boy. The youngest daughter was always treated poorly by their father, and we have now recently found out that the youngest daughter is also not part of the family and that my grandma cheated on my grandpa. She's under a lot of attack not only because of all of this coming up in the family but she has recently been called to teach sunday school and she starts in two weeks. So from all the attack she is struggling with self control and being able to control her temper. This lack of self control only happens around me so it's not negatively affecting anyone but her. Prayers would be greatly appreciated.

Wow.
I can relate to alot of that, especially with my dad.
He has a very dysfunctional family, and a very abusive childhood to top that off.
If you need to talk about anything, PM me.
it sounds alot like my family.

Will be praying.
