I have to share with you all because I know it has been your prayers that have helped open doors for me personally. I have shared in numerous postings about "Rick" the 15 yr old who professes to be gay, his family with the one younger brother that asked me to talk to his parents about wanting to live his w/his biological mother and getting his step mom to stop saying bad things about his mom.
UPDATE~~
God is soo good! My DH and I have been trying to figure out how to go about talking to this family and others without singling them out. Make a long story short...Last night their two 10 yr old sons got baptized! YAY! After the service the mother "CAME TO ME" and wanted to talk about "Rick" and her step son. She poured her heart out and then the husband came and did the same. To be honest I was in so much shock I wasn't sure of what to do or say. I just listened and when I felt it was time, shared. It was so GOd! He gave me the correct words, how to phrase them, everything to get through to these parents with out them getting defensive which has been a problem in the past. They are really opening up and have asked for personal prayer. Which again is a God thing! I can say it is through prayer that last nights events took place. I have been so stressed about how to talk to them and still support the child(ren) involved. Thankfully our Lord knew that and laid it on their heart to talk to me. Just wanted to share the fantastic news and thank you again for all your advice and prayer coverage! Missa
