Prayer For Oldest Daughter
Porter:
If you all wouldn't mind saying a prayer for our oldest daughter (whom we adopted out) Alice that would be awesome. She's in an abusive relationship and I just found out today that she got beaten up real bad last week. She also appears to be in denial about it and is defending the guy who beat her up. He's totally brain washing her and not allowing her to visit family. My wife and I are very concerned for her as are her adoptive parents.
Please also say a prayer to help keep me from hurting him. The hate in me is scary right now. Ive prayed for God to forgive him and also that God would help me forgive him also and that God's good and perfect will be done . I know it's the right thing to do, but Im having a hard time wanting to do the right thing right now. :'(
Just want to mention he is going to jail on the 4th of January for beating up his former girlfriend. So that is a bit of a relief. I just hope he doesn't hurt her more before then.
If anyone has any advice in this situation please share.
Thank you for listening.
Extol:
Thanks and coming to us with this request. That's a big reason why we are here.I'll be remembering you and your daughter in prayer.
Wittenberg:
Definitely will/am praying for the situation.
One thing I do when I have unforgiven ness. I picture the person I have anger towards and I imagine them as they will be when they are glorified in Christ. In your case, picture how the abusive boyfriend will be. He will have a deep love for your daughter and for those that he caused pain to. For where there is much forgiveness there is much love. Your forgiveness will be a source of love in his eternal life. You will also spend eternity with a special bond with another member of Christ body. I pray for you that you can bring that forgiveness to earth as it is in Heaven.
Dave in Tenn:
If you think you are up to it, consider visiting him in jail.
