Family of God: Re: [FamilyofGod] Re: send in your prayer requests

experiences fascinating and moving because the individuals has come to learn
ogf god's love for each one of his child. your son is much loved by god

Hello,

I am new here...

Thank you for your encouragement to send in prayer requests. I would like
to request prayer for my 28-year-old son, who is a Christian, but who is
also an alcoholic. He has been in and out of rehab, but cannot seem to stay
sober. He is now living in an extremely dangerous neighborhood, where there
are lots of gang members, in a residence with several other men who are
alcoholics. I don't think he is receiving the treatment he needs.

We used to be very close, but his alcoholism has torn-up my family
relationships, and placed a great deal of stress on my marriage. I am
extremely depressed, and find some relief in prayer, but not always. I am
exhausted from praying for my son every day, for long periods of time - he
has used either marijuana, pills, or alcohol since he was 15 years old.

Please pray that he is surrounded by God's Presence and His angels in his
neighborhood, which is supposed to be the most dangerous neighborhood in the
city where we are living, and that he is protected from harm - and I would
also appreciate it greatly if you could pray that he is healed of his
alcoholism and addictions. His name is Nick.

Thank you so much,

Janet

No prayer request is trivial.If you need prayer or support ,or if you know
any one struggling of sickness, pain and depression, do post. All of us can
raise them in prayer.

Depression hits all, in different degrees. So if you feel depressed and
wonder about life, don't be discouraged. Jesus Christ is risen, He is an
advocate for us with His Father in heaven and we can boldly ask anything in
His name and we will not be disappointed.

We encourage you to share your burdens.
