WHY don,t I see a glimpse of light at the end of my very dark tunnel?! I pray, I try to keep my faith, I go for help for my very troubled son, and the situation seems to NEVER get better? When do I give up? The toll this has taken on ME and my husband and son is AWFUL! I truly friends don't know how much more we can physically and mentally handle.

Dear Anonymous: You NEVER give up, no matter what. Be a survivor, pray for courage to face each day. I never thought I would see the light at the end of the tunnel either. Two of my children inherited their fathers alcoholism, they added drug addicted. I never thought either of them would life reach their
30th Birthdays. I too became weary but I never gave up on them, & I prayed continuously. I have to admit at times I didn't" like" them, their choices, or behavior.
They are now 59 & 61...Several years ago after hitting rock bottom (living on the streets for my son) & a family intervention they finally faced their demons, admitted their addictions & went into treatment. Praising God they have both have turned their lives around, been clean & sober for several years. It's taken have their life time to turn their lives around. They both still struggle with life issues but they no longer turn to drugs & alcohol to solve their problems. They turn to God.
I'm so proud of both of them & continue to pray for their sobriety, & happiness.. God is good, we just have to believe that his timing is always right.
Keep the faith..Blessings
I wish they had the ability to "edit". Please excuse the errors.
Rosemarie, Thank YOU so much for sharing your son’s story. Your words give me hope. I guess when you’re living in the moment it just seems so hopeless along with a lot of pain. I hear your message loud and clear and not to give up. God bless you and your boys or should I say men. LOL 💜
Believe me Carla there were so many time I wanted to give up on my so, & daughter over the years. I still sometime wait for the other shoe to drop when they have personal issues to deal with, but God has them in the shelter of his arms. I had to "let" God do His thing. Which is so weird because they both turned their lives around almost simultaneously. Keep praying for God to intervene in your sons life. Even this kind of a Miracle DOES happen.
Blessings,
Rosemarie
P.S. God doesn't always answer what we pray for or have things "go" the way we want. Sometimes we have to keep the faith, & accept Gods will even when we don't understand it...
Praying for your peace of mind, & your for your son, that what ever God's plan for him is it will happen soon...
blessings for you & your family..
Rosemarie,
Thank you so much for sharing your story and kind words. I appreciate the encouragement and yes I will continue to keep my faith! Thanks for your prayers!
Sending Blessings & prayers,
