Prayer for Life Issues

Postby Phantom_Sorano » Fri Oct 21, 2011 2:01 pm

Hey everyone.

I hate posting this sometimes because I feel like I am being needy or complaining....but y'all....I would love some prayers.

It's a long story, but roughly three years ago, I left an abusive home with my biological parents and was soon disowned. I found a couple who took me in and helped me save money to get on my own feet...at least to get a car, apartment, and start college on loans. In December, they told me they wanted to adopt me and I was thrilled...I even changed my name to match theirs.

I got an email Sunday from my almost-adoptive mom: I've been disowned again. The letter was extremely harsh and angry, though I done nothing I had been accused of being busy at school hours away. I'm so busy with multiple jobs to help me get by and a full college load that I really haven't had time to process this. But I find myself with a family, actual home, or anything concrete. I have tried to contact them, but they have blocked all forms of communication.

I'm not really asking for answers; I know God has a reason for all that He does and that He won't give us anything we can't handle....but I feel like I'm at a breaking point, especially trying to hide this and go about everything like nothing has happened. Please...please...I would very much love some prayer. Thank you so much everyone.

Wow, that really stinks... I'm so sorry, Soran. :-/ I know what it's like to have a hard family life. But still, you definitely have it rough right now. My condolences.

I'll be praying things get better for you. Maybe Psalm 27 would be a good chapter to read right now, especially verse 10. That helped me get through quite a lot.

I'm always praying for you Soran. I love you sis and I hope everything will get better soon. It's times like this that I wish everyone I love on here was in the same state as me so I could give them a big old bear hug.

Good luck hugging me. I'd probably drop kick you into next year. Like this.

Scene: Derek runs towards Lockon. Lockon drop kicks Derek. "Why do weird people gravitate towards me?" Fin.

Anyway, Phan don't worry. If you're telling the truth, eventually it'll become plain to them too. If I'm wrong, well, I'm not an expert on relationships of any sort.

I feel your pain, man. My mom abandoned me and treated me like garbage for a long time, and I would have killed for a surrogate mother around the time I was your age. But God taught me, every time it came up, that He was enough for me, and that I could trust Him no matter how badly people would betray. I pray that He would be even more loving and generous to you, brother.

I don't like people hugging me. Only reason.

Sora, let us know how things turn out. Hope it works out the way you want it to.

I wish I knew what to say. I know well the intense pain of coming from an abusive home and not having parents who are actually there (or who care to be involved in your life).

Your situation is very hard. But I will tell you that things will get better --even if this relationship with your almost-adoptive parents isn't restored (which I pray it will be) --God is faithful and He will meet your needs and will put people in your path to mentor you and be parents-of-sorts to you (I've had some amazing families at my home church "adopt" me in a way --and am SO grateful for it).

God's plans for you are great and more wonderful than anyone can imagine or think of. :)
"Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." 2 Corinthians 4:16-18

Everyone...thank you so much for your prayers and encouraging words; it's comforting to know others have gone through somewhat similiar situations (though I find it incredibly interesting that people still get my age and gender confused sidenote).

But, I just wanted to say thanks. Your prayers have really helped me get through this week. It is difficult because I am worried about not really having a home besides my dormitory and if something happens to me, I have no one to speak in my behalf.

As strange as it sounds, I feel like God has done this for a reason and I'm not angry or upset about it....just hurt by their sudden and cold rejection and the fact I have been told not to return to the area I have always called home. Odd things help me going; from asking God to be my mother, father, brother, sister, aunt, uncle, everything to a book my boyfriend is reading about the world's greatest scientists and artists that shows 90% of famous artists had lost a parent or both parents at a critical point in their life. Since I have lost four parents, I'm ahead of the game. It is odd to smile at, but you have to keep smiling, right? "The worst wastest of all days is one without laughter."-EE Cummings

I'll be back on my feet soon and will be haunting the CAA soon enough. Thank you so much everyone. God bless.
