My father's out of the picture. He was a murderer, and my mother divorced him for cheating. He practically hates me.. but loves me.. but we dont get along, ya know?
My mom's crazy.. remarried-but seperated.. one of my brothers who was kidnapped by his father (my moms first love) had come back into my life.. but his father was murdered just before father's day.
It was a miracle that i already had plans to visit my grandma, and i had a retreat while things were going on. My mom hasnt been working or sleeping.. my brother is turning to drugs again and has fallen into depression and confusion, he doesnt want to go to college now..
I just met my other brother a week ago who was also kidnapped.. we pretended everything was okay..
My brothers and i each have different fathers

We're broken.. I just ask for one person to pray please.. I know i'm pathetic.. but please?

You're not at all pathetic. You are a daughter of the King and Creator of the Universe. A daughter God loved so much he sent His own birth son to die for, to save you and show you His love.

I'm sorry to hear so much chaos has taken part in various parts of your family. But you can be where it ends. You can be the one to take a stand and not make the same wrong choices your family has made. You can be the start of the new beginning for your family line.
Just remember nothing thats happened is your fault, or is even a reflection on who you are.
Don't define yourself by whats going on in your family, but let who you are be defined by your faith and how God see's you.

You may not be able to put an immediate stop to whats going on in your family, but don't let satan bring you down by it either. God has good things for you, no matter whats going on around you now. Don't let satan rob you of knowing who you are in Gods eyes.

I've never had a life quite as chaotic as that. But I have struggled with many out of the ordinary situations that day-to-day people rarely come up against. And my advice to you, is to find something you believe in. To find something you believe in and work as hard as you can to be that.

Chaos brings an ability to handle stressful situations that normal people don't have. I am the same way. I go into relationships and I can handle arguments, I flare up, I'm passionate and sometimes bluntly truthful and it's true when people say that we are a product of our environment somewhat. And people call me quite an intense person.

What you need is someone who understands your flaws and accepts them. With all that chaos around, you have been brought up feeling this is somewhat normal and you are almost accustomed to it by now I'm sure.

It's hard to turn a life around but with work and a good person/people to support you, you can accomplish anything with your life.

You do not have to mirror people's actions, neither do you need to accept a life that you are unhappy in, or bad treatment. It becomes second nature (at least for me), to just get on with it and accept second best because I've known worse. But I've come to realise, in my life, that I am a very giving person, and I deserve the same courtesy, respect and sincerity back again.

And you do too.

Mediate you really don't know the half of it/: But i have to disagree with part f what you said. I really don't need anyone to understand and accept my flaws, I have God .. when the time comes for me to meet a person like that I'll be *very* grateful haha.

I've heard all of that before.. but it's.. it can still be hard to believe.. sometimes i do believe it. other times i break down and just hate myself.. idk.

Thank you, you seem like a very kind person.
God Bless :)

I am exactly the same way, it's tough, especially on bad days, but with time and effort you can and will come to think in a different way. But I know what you mean, when you are in one of those ruts, it's so, so hard to come out of one. If God helps you, that's fantastic.

Hi there,

I just joined this site today, and am definitely praying for you. I'm going through quite a bit of chaos myself right now and am totally identifying with your pain. God is sooo going to turn your life around. He never wastes a hurt you know! Something that has helped me immensely has been Celebrate Recovery. Google it and see if there is one near you. It's a place where you can take off your mask and people genuinely care. Sadly, sometimes it's hard to walk into a church and take the fake mask off so that people can really see the pain deep inside.

Abba, I lift up this child, who rightly calls herself "adorable", because You adore her. You know her heart, and what I've seen of it is pure...beautiful...Yours.

I praise you for that, Father. I thank you that she calls on Your name, and that she's been such a blessing here on this site.
Though her outer life be turmoil, I ask that her inner life, where she's hid with Christ in You, be at peace. The peace you promised that is so amazing we can't even understand it. Help her to rest in You, and Your love for her.
Abba, I also life her family to You. Be there for them, even though they don't know it's You. I pray for her brother, that he might find help for the feelings of sadness that drive him to self-medicate with drugs. I ask that he would find healing in a relationship with Jesus. And so for them all, Lord God.

Reassure Noel that You are in charge of this, as in all things concerning her. Allow her to see the myraid of ways in which You care for her. Speak to her heart in the quiet times, and in the chaotic ones, too. You are Master of all, Lord. You have a purpose and a plan, for good toward her. Thank You, Abba!
Bring peace to this dear child, in Jesus' name, amen!

I will keep you all in prayer, honey!
