Beloved of All
Requesting prayers for my children. I pray that God watch my kids steps. The older one Jacob is 26 and the younger one Olita is 24. I need desperate prayers for the boys, Olita is struggling so bad. He was with a very toxic girlfriend Alexis she is about 30 years old. I didn’t care about the age difference I was concern she used Olita for money. His very smart but this is his first real girlfriend. They would have break up and back together but the only time she comes around when he has money. When his broke she start fights and Olita is not perfect either. He spoils her and he is controlling and manipulative at times. I was always honest and tell him that girl is not good for you. If she already spit in your face that is a sign of disrespect and she knows you will always come running back. Olita would disrespect me his step dad for this girl. So finally I told him well you are a grown adult that’s your choice but don’t come running back to me for advice I’m done. Long story short the girlfriend is now filing a restraining order. This is after Olita win the police brutality case thank you all for your prayers for that. So now, he reaches out to me for support because the toxic girlfriend used up all his money until he is broke and now mom comes to the rescue. So this time I put my foot down and told him, no I will not show up for your court or help you financially or anything. I think you know everything so I will let you do you. Figure it out I will not be here forever and for you and your brother to use me when you are broke and don’t appreciate anything. I just pray he gets his life together and that he put God first in his life instead of blaming everyone but himself. It does break my heart for not helping but I have to show him tough love and not give in to everytime they cry and ask for help and I just keep enabling them. For Jacob the same thing his struggling they disrespect me so much because they listen to their friends but God knows where my heart is. I am not a perfect mom either. I was always mean I get angry when they call me asking for something. I guess I can say I am so embarrassed to talk about my kids to anyone, why? Because they were good kids raised right got everything they want. But now they are adults, they are disrespectful and don’t listen and no Jobs. But expect everyone to give them money. All they want is handouts, they are entitled and think it’s right. I am truly requesting prayers that the two boys my husband and I raised become successful in their lives. And be better than us. I pray they put God first before me and my husband or anyone and that they lead a worthy life with God first in their lives. That they remain humble, have compassion to help anyone who needs a helping hand every now and then. I also pray that the boys will restore their relationship with my husband their stepdad who raised them so well with manners. I understand the frustration that my husband Lavar feels. These 2 ungrateful kids he raised when he was 22 years old. Have no respect for him, they would flaunt money in his face but never offer to help him, or even remember his birthday or a text on Father’s Day or any of the holiday. All my husband want is that they grow up to be good men and make sure they call grandma his mom to check to see how she is doing but these kids only calls when they want money or something. I never to say hello or anything it’s always wanting something. But they will totally and bluntly ignore the fact that they just disrespected me or their step dad by cursing and yelling and lying and telling everyone we were abusive parents and all of this. But they went to every camp their is they wear expensive things they were never struggling. I honestly don’t care about me. I just wish they respect the stepdad that stepped up and raised them when they were 3 and 6 years old all their lives. But now they don’t care. I pray the boys and my husband will reconnect and built a good relationship. As well as me and the boys. I am also stubborn I never forgive anyone when they hurt me. It’s hard to forgive. I am hoping that we fix our family and come together. And my mother in law, as much as I want to bring myself to talk to her like I use to. I don’t trust her at all I see her true colors she is very manipulative and noisy always want to know my busing and play the innocent game. But I don’t even u destined this lady goes to church and read her Bible but she sure does gossip a lot about people as if she is so perfect. Please humbly request prayers desperately for the boys and my husband.
