Seems like it was just the other day that I was testifying to the miracle God was working in my daughter's life. That she was staying clean and sober, going to N/A, going to Church again.

Well, it was all a lie. She was still getting high and today she decided to get drunk, rob me and then assault me. She is now in custody for theft and assault. She has priors, has pending cases and was warned if she caught any more charges she'd be going away.

I signed a restraining order and will be making it permanent on June 3rd. I have given her every chance, maybe too many. I have helped her for 2 years, have hired lawyers, tried to get her into Rehabs, left her in jail for a period of time. Did everything humanly possible, including throwing her out and rendering her homeless......doing the "tough love" thing.

I am actually at peace now cause she was really starting to fight with my 19 year old autistic son a lot because he'd ask her to turn her music down.
She was still causing our home to be chaotic even on her best day.

I've been praying for days that the Lord would do what she needed and help my son so that he could have a peaceful home. The Lord works in strange ways but he has given me the strength to sign the restraining order, to be willing to make it permanent and put her completely in the Lord's hands and take me out of the picture.

I ask for prayer for her. I love her with all my heart, but she made her choice. I ask for prayer for myself, my son, my mother and a friend named Johnny - she has hurt all of us, help us to forgive her and pray for her and love her. Ask the Lord to let her see the truth, clear her mind of all the booze and drugs and heal it.

My heart is just racing now from all the adrenaline, being knocked into a wall and thrown down the stairs wasn't too pleasant but thank the dear Lord I wasn't seriously injured just cut up and bruised.

I am at a loss for words right now brothers and sisters. I am just so happy that I always have this Church - Talk Jesus to come to. Thank you all for praying for us.

Be Blessed!!!!!!

Dear sister Katzie,

I realize the very painful situation you are going through. Please don't worry dear sister our God is a very gracious, kind and loving God, who will never let us down.

I agree with Br.Bear in prayer. I pray that she will be set free from the spirit of addiction and that she will come to know the Lord. I also pray that God will make her mighty witness for the gospel.

The bible says in Luke ch:1:37 that "For with God all things are possible"

So we just have to trust in God and leave everything in his hands.


God Bless You.:thumbs_up
 
Hi Katzie- I will pray for you and your family- I pray also that your daughter will repent and be saved by God. I pray God to give you strength and comfort. I know it is a hard situation for you to be in right now. My little brother, who has since passed away, years ago was on drugs. He is diabetic and the drugs and drinking took a huge toll on him and his heart. Well I used to pray everyday for God to make him stop the drugs and drinking. During this time, he got in a lot of trouble of course. Well, the trouble led him to court, and probation. He still kept right on getting in trouble. His 5 year probation was revoked, and he was sent to prison for the whole 5 years. Well needless to say I was mad at God because he didnt answer my prayer to save my brother and make him get off the drugs and drink. Well it took a month for it to dawn on me- prison for 5 years equals no access to drugs or alcohol. God did answer me- just nowhere near what I expected. I hated that my brother went to prison- I grieved everyday for 5 years but he was also clean and sober and saved in Christs name when he left that prison. When he died, he knew where he was going. ( He died because his heart finally gave in to the abuse he had put on his heart and the diabetes). Maybe this is the best thing for your daughter. I guess thats my point- maybe the best will cme from this. No matter how mad your daughter is for all of this, you stand strong! You do not back down because it may be the very thing that saves her. God bless you and keep you safe and comforted.

Thank you so much for your kind words, encouragement, prayers and testimonies.
I am truly at peace because I know the Lord is in complete control of things. I pray without ceasing that He will clear her mind of all the drugs, booze, mental illness and emotional disturbances and open it up to hear Him and hear Him cleary. I pray she will get down on her knees and repent and asked to be filled with the Holy Spirit again and that God will use her on this road she will now travel.

I will not back down. I have learned that when God is trying to tell us something, trying to lead us in a direction and we keep taking detours, He keeps putting us back in the same situation. I know without a doubt that the Lord wants me completely out of the picture now, letting Him control things and allowing Him to work His miracles.

I am so happy that I am free now to work with my son and get him on track and get his life where it should be. I can spend more time visiting my mother. I can go to Fellowship meetings, Bible Studies, Church and even out to dinner with a friend.

Praise God for everything that happened. Is this what I thought I'd be doing when my daughter was 27........no. I thought she'd be married with a very successful career and taking me out to dinner for a visit. Did I think my ex husband would turn into a drug addict alcoholic abusive Police Officer? Nope!! But, that's life....just gotta roll with the punches and rest in the Lord's word and comfort and know that He loves me, He loves my son and daughter and ex husband. HE WON'T GIVE UP!!! Nor will I!!!!!!

Praise the Lord!!!!

God Bless all of you!!!!

Katzie. I am so saddened to hear your news. After giving so much hope....but Jesus knows all about us. None are exempt. He loves her.

I ask for prayer for her. I love her with all my heart, but she made her choice. I ask for prayer for myself, my son, my mother and a friend named Johnny - she has hurt all of us, help us to forgive her and pray for her and love her. Ask the Lord to let her see the truth, clear her mind of all the booze and drugs and heal it.

I am praying. My heart reaches out in Jesus.

Katzie you are such a blessing, I am praying that your daughter will catch your spirit

There'll be an answer bye and bye
For all the times we've wondered why
For all the tears life made us cry
There'll be an answer bye and bye

Meanwhile I am praying that soon your precious daughter will come to her senses........in Jesus I pray
