As we are promised, "there shall be no more burdens that we can bare". However, we are humans and can't always see this. Dear Lord, lift this family up and show them in your own gentle way that they can find a better way. I pray for the strength of the family to hold on to each other and know that it is ONLY with God that these lives will be turned around. Let them feel the peace and love you give in tough times. I too have struggled with teenage rebellion and the hurt can be unbearable. But keep being strong....it will be OK in Gods will.
In Jesus precious name

I NEED PRAYER SOON AS POSSIBLE
Two of my sons are here in my home. It started out as a one sleep over but it's looking like a "move-in". They are grown. They are on DRUGS. They demand me to take them where ever they want to go. They are not contributing anything. They are taking. we are so low on food right now and no gas for our vehicle at all! I told them there was no more money for gas. They both got very mad at me! I can't deal with their life style and my husband will probably throw us ALL out if things don't change real fast. Please pray, please!

First of all, there has to be better wisdom at dealing with this situation. I don't want to sound harsh, but Jesus said that "My people are destroyed for a lack of knowledge." Honestly, i don't think you and your husband are handling your sons properly in this case. So, ask God for knowledge in how to deal with this situation. Years ago, i dealt with a situation with relatives something similar to this. As i prayed about it, God led me to put my foot down. Before long, they were all out, and my house became a place of peace. Understand that you are not obligated to continue taking care of grown children, particularly those who take no sense of responsibility. Pray about this, and God will lead you in what to do. I am praying for you. God bless you.
