My Son

[sctami]

Thank you so much for such awesome encouraging words.  My son is trying really hard.  The devil is tempting him, and he said that he knows the devil is, and he is trying to resist.   Pray that he will be able to stand strong.  He wants to help his friend who is in the same situation he was.  Please pray that he will be able to help him without letting his friend bring him down. I am so proud of the progress he is making, and I pray that he will continue to grow strong and stay on the path which God has put him on.  I pray that christian friends will enter his life to lift his spirits and help bring him closer and stronger relationship with God.

Amen Sister Sctami,

We will continue to pray for your son and his friends. Things are beginning to sound pretty positive, so we also need to give thanks.

Love In Christ,
Tom

Amen! Prayers will definitely stay with him as well as with you as you continue to encourage him and help him to stay strong in God.

I give God all the praise and glory for everything he has done for my son.  His friend's mother has decided it is best for now for my son and his friend not to talk.  My son understands this and said that it is good with him because he does not want his friend to bring him back down into a lifestyle that is not pleasing to God.  I AM SO PROUD OF HIM!!!  Thank you all so much for your continued prayers.

My prayers will continue for him as well.

My son is going to counseling on Monday, August 11th.  Please pray that God's will will be done.  He is still trying really hard to live a christian life.  Please continue to pray for him as he goes through these next few weeks that God will hold him in the palm of his hand and things will be according to God's plan.

I've already added my prayers too, Sister.

Thanks to everyone who is praying for my son.  He seems to have had a kind of down day today.  He was not his happy-go-lucky self he has been for the last couple of weeks.  Please pray for him that he will stay strong in God and let God use him and be the man that God wants him to be.  He does have difficult days, especially with friends who do not understand why he would want to be a christian.  Please continue to pray for him that he will stand strong in his faith and not back down to fit back in with the group of friends.  Thank you all so much for your prayers - please keep them coming, as they seem to be working!

[Soldier4Christ]

My prayers will definitely continue with and for him and that he will find some new Christian friends.

[Shammu]

My prayers will continue for your son.

[HisDaughter]

I'm still praying.

[sctami]

Well, my son had his first therapy session, and I am not sure how good it went.  He liked the therapist.  He has it in his head that you can be christian and be gay, and that he was born that way.  Please, please, please pray that the therapist can help him understand that he was not born that way.  My heart is sad, but I am not giving up.  He made the comment to one of his friends that "come January, I will be back to Mitchell".  I'm not sure what that means, but please pray for him and me (I need it). 

[HisDaughter]

Still praying my friend!

[sctami]

Help guys!!!  I really need prayer for my son between now and next Friday when he goes to the counselor.  He has told is friend that he wants to take us into the room with him to tell us that he is gay! Please, please pray that God will move in a mighty way between now and Friday.  I know that God will not put more on me then I can handle, but I am mighty close.  I do not know what to do anymore except turn it fully and completely over to God and say "here Lord, it's yours!  I can't fight anymore, I'm tire and weary.  Please take care of this battle for me."  Please keep us in your prayers.
