I ask for prayer to be able to know that my son has forgiven me for not being the kind of mom I should have been to him. He is 23.... I was an alcoholic single parent and he being the oldest caught most of the raw deal......Tonight he came to visit with my stepgrandchild and he raised his voice to her. I asked him not to and he said "You did to me....." He silenced me as he is right I did and I was at times abusive to him. I prayed and asked God to show me how to deal with this. My younger child has had a much easier life altho she is his bio sister, she is much younger and by the time she was born I was divorced and beginning to get my life together again. I have asked God to forgive me for my son's not so good early life but how how do I ask my son to forgive me? I cannot change it but it hurts so much. He has missed out on so many of the things my daughter has been privy to. Please help do I ask mmy son for forgiveness as I don't want him to raise his children the way he was raised. He knows I am changed and he knows that I live for God now....Please please pray for me......[

I am praying for you..You are on the right track though, you can just talk to him and now that he knows you have let the Lord into your life and things are changing for you, just ask him if he wants to sit down and talk. Tell him that you are a changed person and you love him very much, ask him if he can forgive you for whatever happened in the past. Tell him you want to have a better relationship with him and make thing right. But, I am sure he already knows that now.... I am praying for you my friend! amen kc

I'd encourage you to just be strong and courageous. This should help dispell any feelings of doubt you are having, and help you feel you both are on the same page. OneJohn410

Father, Thank you for the change that you have brought about in the life of cblueiis. Help her to talk with and apologize to her son for past mistakes. May her son be a loving, excellent father who follows your example. Please bring about your peace. Thank you. We thank you and ask this in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Father, I ask that You would heal any hurts that cblueiis's son may have from the past. That You would heal cblueiis's heart and that she would be able to forgive herself as You have forgiven her. Help her to talk with her son, and tell him that she is sorry for the mistakes she mayhave made in the past and help him to have a forgiving heart, if he hasn't already forgiven her. Strengthen the bond and love between this mom and son, and heal all wounds Father. Help this son to be a good dad. The dad that You would have him to be. In Jesus name. Amen

Praying for you and your son...What a wonderful thing you have done to recognize that your son was hurt, you have admitted your failures, and are asking the Lord who heals all hurts to intervene. May God speedily answer your prayers. Mama used to say, "Let bygones be bygones". You can't change the past, but can have a brighter tomorrow. walkin2e

I am a bit upset at the moment at fritzadmin in the Marshall debate chat room........we were discussing if it is ok for a christian to "date" be with a non-christian and I was privately pm'd to say this is not an appropriate topic to debate in that room. I was asked to move it to the relationship room. Well, I am not looking for a relationship rahter am wondering about the status of my own.....is it ok for me to be with a non-christian and people were giving me Biblical places to look etc. I then attempted to challenge frtizadmin on this however I was ignored....is this the way Crosswalk does things?? I am asking for prayer for frtizadmin may they understand what the true meaning of a debate is..........

Lord I lift up cbluis and her son to you. I pray Lord that they will find forgiveness for each other. I pray Lord her son be healed from the pain,abandonment and sorrow they have had in their lives. Lord only through your love can this healing happen so I lay this before you. I pray Lord her son will break the cycle of pain and strive to be a good father to his children. Help him Lord to be a loving,caring and compassionate parent Lord I pray you will draw him to you and he will grow in your love and guidance. Lord I pray he will respond to the love his mother has. I pray he will see you through the changes that have been made in her life. Bless them Lord and help them to heal completely with your peace and restoration. In Jesus name Amen

I pray You would remove any barriers that would keep them from having that strong relationship that You desire for them. in Jesus name, amen
