[__ Prayer __] my "father"

[God's Child]

Most of you know about my relationship with my "father." We have gotten into two fights recently and I just can't deal with him any longer. I don't know what to do. I would like you to pray for me and my situation. I've put up with this for 8 years and I've had enough! I'm sooo mad at him and he doesn't even realize what he's doing to me and what he did to my life. He's never going to change, but I just can't take this anymore. He's never been a father to me and I have absolutely no respect for him.

I know what it's like but just thank God that your Dad's there with you. Mine's pretty much run away and is being searched for by the cops, etc. I'll be praying for you though. Keep a chin up. Your Dad may not say it, or show it, but I'm sure he loves you. Also Remember that you've got your Father in heaven and he wants you to come and talk to him and telll him everthing that comes to your head etc. He wants to help you with you and your Dad and if you just ask him, he'll be there for you and he is even right now. It's really hard having a father who doesn't even seem like a father or act like one. I sometimes just want to call up my Dad and yell at him. He never calls on Christmas or even any other special days; even the B-day's my sisters and I have. But I just think about how I've got a heavenly father who loves me more than anything and has promised never to leave nor farsake me. I'll be praying for you. God Bless and take care. :angel:

When I was growing up I was so mad at my dad... he was always traveling and when he'd come home he'd either ignore me or criticise me. he also drank way too much. Then, when I was 18 he suddenly died (way too young). For years I was mad at him, believing he had been a poor father and resenting him and his actions. It took me 30+ years before I got a clue... that things had been other than I thought... that indeed his life had not been what I had believed.
This doesn't mean that it's the same way with you, but does show that none of us live in the other's shoes. We simply do not know what is inside anybody else... even close family. It's an important truth.

Now I'm well grown and know some truths I had missed in youth. I know that I'm responsible for me... and for my actions and feelings. It's up to ME to change and channel my life towards good things regardless of what life throws at me. Forgiveness is key (in most things). I had to forgive my Dad... and myself.
Look into your heart and KNOW that indeed you CAN do all things (even forgive) in Christ Jesus...

I pray to the one living God that He grant You His peace and insight into your family problems and into how He expects you to deal with all this. In Jesus' name... amen.

in Christian love,
Deke
