I ask that everyone please pray for me. It seems as though the scars of my past continue to haunt me. My past is filled with many traumatic events. I was abandoned, abused mentally, emotionally, and physically. My own mother gave me up, my grandmother drugged me to the point of almost being brain dead. The doctors thought I was mentally retarded. I was taken by the state and adopted. My adopted parents treated me ok at first. However, after a while they spoke harshly to me calling me worthless, good for nothing, and I'd wind up living under a bridge. They were Christians to beat it all too. All my life I've been treated badly and that no matter what I do it's never good enough.

Now that I'm saved my mind is trying to transition into the love of Jesus. I am trying to stop the thinking of if I do something wrong I'll be abandoned again. My chains of the past seem to be very strong. Pray that my chains and scars of my past be lifted. Thank you my dearest family.

I know. It feels great to be in the arms of a loving Father who wants me to feel safe. I think my past is going to be used just like tourist said. I could be called to serve as a traumatic counselor. I need to be healed first myself before I can help others.

Father God, you are the love that never let's go. I pray that you help this young man let your love cover him and fill all the broken places. Lord help him not let the world define who he is or his character. I pray that you help him forgive and let go of all the pain in his life. I pray that what he has gone through is not wasted. I pray that you help him become empowered to help others who gw up in a difficult situation. Lord, help him to know that through your Testament in the word of God we are aware that you suffered like us. You understand the pain, and only you can help us find our way back to a complete person. Lord when we belong to you we share in your suffering but also have no right to hold on to the pain. Lord help this young man find his strength, comfort, and wisdom n you. Amen.

rdseekingafterhim...Your Lord & Savior Jesus Christ is Your Healer. He knows how to redeem all the ugliness & brokenness of your past. He is able to put all the pieces of your shattered past back together & make you completely whole, healthy & strong in Him. Trusting Jesus is a step of faith, and even our faith is a gift from the Lord. He is living within You & He will walk beside you every step of the way in your healing process.
Lord Jesus, I lift up rdseekingafterhim, that you would bring strength within his soul & spirit, knowing that You are his Father in Heaven, who will never abandon him. I pray Lord that you would wrap your arms of Love around him & may he sense your presence throughout his days. Lord, You are his closest companion, & You are forever committed to bringing the healing & wholeness to rdseekingafterhim. Help him to trust in you Lord. In Jesus name...Here's beautiful song for You.. may it minister healing to your soul & spirit..."Arms of Love" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pruF5T6y41Q
