To make a long story short my family has disowned me. I was an alcoholic before I found Jesus. I got saved and helped but my family remains sick. They are not Christians either. The were not happy when I was a drunk and they are not happy that I am a follower of Jesus.
My daughter and I have had our problems because of my drinking while she was growing up, but I have worked on our relationship and the Lord has shown me how to love her. I have been honest with her that my mother never hugged me or talked nice to me so this is all new to me. Recently, my daughter has been picking fights with me and I fight back with her. It upsets me so. This is the only way for me to defend myself. My whole life has been about me defending myself.
I am so upset because besides my husband, my daughter and grandson are all I have for family and now I don't have them either. (I have my husband just not my daughter) The family is so sick and I guess I am reaping what I sowed for so many years............God please just take me home as I cannot handle any more hurt.
I quit drinking in 2008 and smoking and have now lost everyone??? I don't understand shouldn't I have my family back? I guess God doesn't want me around sick behavior and wants me to focus on him? I don't understand my heart is broken and I feel so alone. Help!!

Healing relationships takes time. Be patient with yourself and with others and take all your hurt and resentment to Christ.

Think about what your thinking about....if feelings of resentment and anger keep creeping in, keep taking it to the Cross. Eventually, this will become an automatic response.

Sometimes our egos get angry when our loved ones are not listening to us...i.e. doing what we're telling them to do or what to think. We have to learn to allow everyone their free will and not think we have all the answers. A humble attitude goes a LONG way in communicating love and acceptance and encourages openness in relationships. This can a very subconscious attitude that takes quiet and determination to discern. The Holy Spirit will lead us in our thinking and actions, and will help us pull out any weeds that are growing in our souls.

Don't give up...it gets easier :).

Lucy is correct and wise in her words. You must realize to take it all to Jesus and give ur family time to see the new you.

Remember life isn't about you, it's how we help others. Once you truly are a help to others, you find out how you helped yourself.

Your in my prayers.

Your solution to your problem is in the book of Isaiah 40 vs 29 - 31.

About your family that disown you, read Matthew 5 vs 10 - 12. All your problem are only temptations to know whether you are truly saved, to know if truly you have submitted totally unto God. Be rest assured, all will come back to normal and you are the one to hold firm your stand and faith in the Lord, <not to backslide or to go back to your sinful life> no matter what happen. God be with you. For more information, write me at [email protected]. God bless you.
