Please join me in praying for my brother's salvation. We had a tumultuous and traumatic upbringing - my parents married young and were extremely unhealthy. My dad was an alcoholic and would verbally and physically abuse my mother, as well as cheat on her. Our home life was a disaster and had a deep affect on us. At a very early age I believed that I was unlovable and worthless. I'm pretty sure my brother believed the same about himself. We both went down a pretty dark and destructive path for years and years. However, I feel like my brother took everything worse than I did. He totally shut the world out and began doing drugs on his own at age 11 and then the cutting started. He would cut his whole body. He became very angry and violent. I too used drugs from a young age and was in abusive and extremely unhealthy relationships, but I didn't isolate like him. I feel like that made a huge difference. I was always looking for answers and believed there was more to life than a life of suffering. I encountered the Lord at the age of 27 (3 years ago) and haven't been the same since. I am still walking out my healing from all the trauma but am at peace and know that God has a plan for my life.
Please pray for my brother's salvation, healing and freedom. It truly breaks my heart to see him still so hurt and so alone. I can tell he still believes that no one cares or loves him and that the world is out to get him. i would give my life to see my brother saved and for him to know true joy while on this earth.
Also, please pray for my entire family: my father, stepmother, step siblings, half sister and mother and step dad. They could all use a radical encounter with the Lord and His unfailing love for them.
I am believing the Lord for total healing and restoration of my family.
I am so grateful for you all standing in agreement in prayer with me.
God bless you!!
