Rene:

God has taught me to treat him with love and respect without trying to play God in his life.

M.G.,

I especially appreciate the above quote from you.  It is a marvelous lesson to learn and one that I desire to apply in my life.  Thanks for sharing.

M.G.,

ALmost all the problems I explain above with my brother are because of his addiction to alcohol. Your post nails it on the head. I'm pray for your son to get well.

truthistforjesus:
Brother, you have assisted me, and I will return.  View my second post with Scriptural reference.  LOVE HIM 'your brother of GOD and in the FLESH.

DizzyD:
Thanks to all for the responses, i believe they helped with my concern about what to do or not to do.

     Ellie, you said "rest assured that he will be saved in Gods good time". That is one concern that my other brother and sisters don't share, as they are stuck in babylon and believe in eternal torture.

      Joe: you asked if i had ever had a 1 on 1 talk with him, Oh yes several times. As well as my other siblings.
       Mom and dad on multiple occasions tried to "help" him but it was to avail. i believe that if after one of the times he had to face the consequences of his actions maybe things would be different now, however after learning some truths here at BT i rest easier knowing that all works to the purpose of HIS will. There again my other siblings hear me say that and don't comprehend the true meaning.

      Brandon: sounds like your brothers situation and mine are so similar its almost scary.

      MG : What can i say but ThankYou for the "Merry Go round of denial"  it is scary that it is so common of a problem in everyday lives of people in general.

      The more i see and read about problems people everyday face i see that my family is not in the boat by ourselves. i do not post often but i come to BT almost everyday and read up on the posts that are presented and when these prayer request are posted i want yall to know even though i don't respond here on line i do remember to say a prayer.
     
       Just to update the situation with my sister that has decided to bring my brother under her wing, two weeks ago today she decided that i was not worthy to have another one on one with him without her there, because she said i was too judgemental and she wasn't going to allow me to hurt his feelings. i haven't heard from her since.  i wanted to talk to him one on one this time because it would be the first time to talk to him since i learned these truths that i now hold. To let him know that i didn't hate him, just his actions and that i was going to be praying for him and that he need not worry about what i think about him but he needs to get it right with the ONE that matters.

 Again thanks to all and to all, you are in my prayers

                                                  Bud

Hi Bud,

If you were to put down on paper the sentiments you expressed above would your sister have an issue with (delivering the letter) presenting your brother with your thoughts and words? Perhaps if he were to read about your feelings toward him now he would inspired to invite you to come visit with him.

Even if he was not ready to speak with you the seed would be planted for future consideration, it could possibly be the conduit the Lord uses to reach your brother.

His Peace to you,

Joe
