Discouraged and weak

[Nikki]

i feel like im in the middle of my parents, they always fighting ever since she confessed that she commited adultery... each one of them tries to tell me their side of how they feel all the time - the same things over and over and over...

I'm tired and all I can do is pray for them. And I have been praying...but I feel like God is not answering my prayers...things are getting worse and I'm so tired and weak...and I feel so very lost. I don't know what or why this is happening...

Hi Nikki,

I will be praying for you and your Parents. Be patient for God has already heard your prayers. Have FAITH...... God operates on a different timetable than we do. In the Bible, in Isaiah 55:8, God reminds us, “My ways are not your ways.”

Cast your cares on the LORD and he will sustain you;he will never let the righteous fall.(Psalm 55:22)

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.(Philippians 4:6-7)

"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." (Matthew 11:28-30)


God Bless You & Your Parents

Hi Nikki

There is no love like the love of Jesus, never to fade or fall, till into the fold of the peace of God He has gathered us all

Jesus love, precious love, boundless and pure and free, O turn to that love weary wandering soul Jesus pleadeth with thee.

There is no eye like the eye of Jesus, piercing so far away, ne'er out of the sight of its tender light can the wanderer stray.

There is no heart like the heart of Jesus, filled with a tender love, No throb nor throe that our hearts can know but He feels it above.

Praying for you Nikki. Praying that the "love of God will shed its-self abroad in your parent's hearts.

God Bless You.......and praying

Hope @ end of rope

Matt.5:3, version=the Message (MSG)

3 "You're blessed when you're at the end of your rope. With less of you there is more of God & His rule. .

You are blessed when you can & want to feel fully embraced by the One most near & dear to you.
Also, when we are weak, He is strong.
His power is prevalent in our weakness, PRAISE GOD!

Perhaps it will help you to remember that you are not responsible for your parents. God does not expect you to fix them in any way. And let me tell you that is good news for us "children" with hurting parents. Pray for them indeed. But do not pick up their burdens and carry their yokes. It will destroy you! But rather just simply loose them to the Lord completely regardless of the future. Trust in God and love them both the best you can. You can tell them that you do not need to hear their sides of the story that you love them both regardless. .........it will get better if you make these changes in your attitude. Remember you are not responsible for your parents.
