It feels like I'm being spiritually attacked again. Through my family again no less.
I thought that I was a very patient person, but I got shown different yesterday. I am very patient when things are going good, lol. But when things go wrong and my buttons are being pushed it seems almost impossible to be patient and endure.
My brother's kid and her kids are a problem for me. She's bi-polar, went off her meds and kicked everybody out. Her hubby, her dad, and me awhile back. Me and my brother got a place together and things were nice and peaceful. Then of course my bro made up with his daughter and they come around to visit him. She's mostly there for his money, because she's a drug addict and can't manage money. She has 4 kids by three daddies and has a good job. Her BS got her a very good job making good money in the childrens services dept of the local government. But she's always broke within hours after being paid and she's off partying and stuff. Then she makes the rounds of her babies daddies and dad crying boo hoo help us I cant pay my bills. She hasn't even taught the kids basic manners or politeness or even how to take care of anything. They destroy everything they get and are the rudest bunch of kids you've ever seen.
When I got on the scene, I thought wow, I should let these kids in on Jesus and His love for us. Took her boy to church a couple times and he even got baptized. I had hope for him and them. She heard me talking about God and came and told me that I am not to to talk about God to any of her kids or it would make her real mad and we would have trouble. Plus she found out that I take pain pills so she started hounding me for them. I wont give her any of them because they're mine and she's young and not hurt. She don't need them, she's just a druggie. That's all she lives for. So I wont give her pain pills or all of my money so now she hates my guts, spreads bad lies and gossip to everyone in the fam and she knows, making me out to be some sort of bad guy. I helped out quite a bit with money and food when I stayed with them, but it's not enough for her. It's never enough for a drug addict.
My brother understand me and agrees that I do the right thing by not giving in to her about money and drugs. I will NOT contribute to her downfall. Since she kicked out everyone she's having a real hard time of it. Lost two places for not paying rent so moved in with her dealer which lives with his mom and that lasted about a month (with all those kids too!) They disrespected her and tore up her house so ahe kicked them out and they're all at the mission now staying in a shelter. Lives in a shelter with 4 kids and brings home about 700 dollars a week!
I stay out of her way when she comes to visit her dad (every friday like clockwork to beg for his money.) Well he loves them and gives her money regardless...but not as much as he used to before (I came) because she kicked out her dad so he had to get his own place and now he's got his own bills to pay so he can't. She wont believe that, she blames me and says I turned her dad against her. (HA!) She makes everyone dislike her. My brother is pretty well ate up with RA from laying carpet for 35 years and is scared that he'll have no one to take care of him when he is unable to work anymore...so he wont stand up to her at all and this gives her quite a bit of control over him.
I've been planting seeds like crazy into my brother and praying for them all. When I first came he was. I believe in God, ut I can't understand the bible but one day when Jesus comes everything will be ok. I've shown him some truth about reading the word and actually trying to produce some fruit for the Lord and so forth...and he's ever so slowly responding over time. I actually found his bible laying open for the first time the other day! Geez this is turning into a book, Lol. I'll try to come to the point here.
I need my Brothers and Sisters prayers for them all. and for my patience and endurance. They are not the enemy, it's the evil spirits they have. Yesterday they came and her kids got into some of my stuff in the living room and messed it all up. I calmly asked my bro if he'd talk to them and get them to be a little respectful and not tear stuff up. He said ok and I went and cleaned it up, and a half hour later, the same thing again, and I started getting frustrated and there was a little confrontation with her oldest boy. I suspect that they may have been instructed to screw me over because she's mad at me and have poisoned them against me, but I dont know. Apparently they need more than just my prayers. They're basically good kids and could be taught. They're high spirited (so would make good servants of the Lord!)
When I talked to my brother and tried to get him to help handle the situation, he sort of sided with them and said I'm being an A-hole for saying anything! Like they should be able to run wild. I kind of put him on the spot as dad and the Lords will... that didn't go well...My brother is so close to walking with the Lord instead of just being a Christian in name only. I have been getting through to him. But he's afraid of her and who will take care of him so...I'm supposed to just take it. That's not right.
Pray for my Brother, that the Holy Spirit will lift him up some and put a desire in his heart to walk closer to Him, and the kids and grandkids that they may live. For his daughter, that she'll get off the drugs (and back onto her bi-polar meds). I have a feeling that if the Holy Spirit would come and just knock her flat on her butt with His presence, that it would turn her heart to the good.
I have to stop rambling and go pray. Sorry so long...
