My son (J) took an overdose 2 days ago but lived. He is 18, depressed, on anti-depressants, fluctuates between being nice and being horrible, swearing at me etc...I live on my own with him. he needs delivered from some strongholds, I believe...I'm a desperate mother. My older son won't speak to him and needs to forgive him for something and this has made J more depressed and angry.
I have a severe financial crisis due to no work for over 5 months. I'm behind on mortgage, taxes, the fridge is nearly empty. I have given faithfully to God for 32 years and I trust him but I'm not sure what to do now except keep praying, thanking him for every blessing and asking you guys for prayer for many miracles including selling my house for a great price, in God's timing, I also need a miracle to be able to rent a house near my son's school because they don't usually give rentals in that area unless you have a job etc
Submit your prayer request. Thousands of caring people will see it and pray for you.
dear Gino
I experienced exactly this in January. I was sad and lonely I cried a lot and I kept saying to God 'I'm so sad, I'm so sad.' Then I realised I had to change my words, no matter how hard it was and so by faith I kept repeating 'I'm full of joy, I'm joyful and grateful and happy etc etc. I then chose to focus and speak only on positives and within 2 days I felt better. I also got a Christian friend to pray for me. I can honestly say I haven't been sad since January despite many trials. Even though it's tough choose to worship-put praise music on, utter thanksgiving, speak the opposite of what you see and feel. God bless. x
