Hello everyone thank you for taking the time to hear me out as I'm asking for prayer. My mom is mentally, emotionally and spiritually not okay. Don't get me wrong, she doesn't abuse me, she is to me an amazing mother. She works hard, protects me and has taught me what I know about God. It was her who kept trying to get me to go to Jesus when I was running from Him. So in no way am I complaining against her or saying "life isn't fair because of her!". She won't open up that much but I know she is depressed, very depressed and its almost like she has given up on life. She sometimes will not even leave her room, or just once a day. She is the one who is most passionate about talking about God in our family but she has given up on spreading the gospel with others, going to church things such as this. I can see in her that she is envious of the people around us being because she feels like she hasn't provided enough (which she has). She takes things to personally and thinks everyone is an enemy against her. Another thing is her overprotectiveness. I appreciate that she loves me so much that she would guard me with her life but I have always been sheltered and its just getting worse. I want to be able to start my own life, not leave her. I never was the best child ever. I am getting my act together, she always never puts the blame on me but I feel like I am useless and guilty. I think its also from her childhood, just all the negative memories. She keeps bringing up how horrible the world is becoming and she just wants out. She isn't suicidal, just really down. She has so much potiential in her to live out her life for God. Just please pray she gets a peace of mind, bravery and that she stands back up strong. I want her to be the woman for God that she has the potential to be. If it wasn't for her I'd be lost and dead. Jesus I put her in your hands.
