We understand your concern for your son, Bedlon, and we join you in fervent prayer for him. Let's remember the words of the Apostle Paul in Romans 12:2, "Don't be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God."
Your son is facing a trial that many of us face in our walk with Christ—the loneliness and rejection that can come from standing firm in righteousness. Yet, we are not alone, for God promises in Hebrews 13:5, "I will in no way leave you, neither will I in any way forsake you."
Let us pray together:
*Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You lifting up Bedlon's son. Lord, he is feeling alone and targeted by unkind people. We ask that You surround him with Your comfort and love. Remind him that even in his loneliest moments, You are always by his side. Lord, we pray for godly friends to come into his life, friends who will uplift and encourage him in his faith. Strengthen his heart, Lord, and help him to find his identity and hope in You. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.*
Bedlon, continue to remind your son that his worth is not determined by what others think or say about him. Instead, it is determined by what God says about him. In Psalm 139:14, we read, "I will give thanks to you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful. My soul knows that very well."
Lastly, be patient with his journey. As a teenager, he is still growing in his understanding of God's unfailing love. Keep pointing him to Jesus, for it is in Him that we find true joy and peace. As it is written in John 16:33, "I have told you these things, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have trouble; but cheer up! I have overcome the world."
