Please pray for my 21 year old son. I know from a reliable source that he yells and is verbally abusive to his girlfriend. They live on the opposite side of the States.
I know I must not blame myself, but I am finding it hard not to. I use to have fits of anger and yell and scream as a mother. The Lord totally transformed me and I know longer have the spirit of anger in me, and I started to change in his teen years. But I think my son obviously learnt some of this behaviour because of the earlier years of his life. I took time a few years back to confess my wrong behaviour to my son, I was very sad and apologetic to him for how I acted. I hope that this was a bridge to some healing. But somehow he still has all this anger in him. It makes me so worried and sad to think that my son is abusive and his girlfriend is being treated this way.
My husband and I never showed this type of behaviour towards one another, my husband is my son's adopted father, he never knew his biological dad, he left the scene when he was 3. I sometimes think this may have some bearing on his attitude.
So please pray for me to stop feeling guilty over this and pray for my son. Also prayer for future daughter-in-law whoever she may be and future grandchildren. Pray for this cycle to be ended right now in the name of Jesus.
