I have anxiety of a very stressful month coming up. June is going to be to be very stressful. In June my little brother is graduating so that'll be emotional. My little brother will also be moving into a home cause of his sever autism. My little sister will also be moving away to live with my Nana in Canada. My Nana will also be visiting for two weeks. Last time my Nana visited was for Christmas a couple years ago and she visited three weeks and that whole time every day constantly I was persecuted by her and the rest of my family for three weeks straight the only time they stopped was when they slept. And I'm not joking or exaggerating. Ruined my Christmas it was horrible. Plus I was forced for many days to sit with my Nana and do literally nothing while the other family members went and did stuff. I wasn't allowed to do anything at all no matter what it was and if I tried to find something to do I was punished for it. And with all their persecution I was not allowed to respond or react or say anything at all I had to just take it. It's gonna be to much for me. Not only will I have to deal with my step-dad's bi-polar manic depression and alcohol abuse but also him calling me 80% on a daily basis and my brother and sister moving away and the persecution and if its gonna be anything like it was on Christmas I will have a meltdown. I'm gonna crash. There is no way I can handle all that. I'm already making plans to try to save up so I can stay at a nearby hotel if I have to. Because there is no way I can stay calm and happy with all that happening to me at once its to much I can't handle all that. So please pray for me on this I'll be asking again in June closer to the time.
 
Jenny, do you have any friends there who are willing to let you stay with them for a while? Your situation sounds similar to some of the ones I've heard from others in the past. God usually brings us into freedom as we come to know the truths (plural) about each aspect of our situation. As Jesus said, "You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free." Being a Christian doesn't make us free from bondage and things that harass and oppress us; knowing the truth(s) about whatever is binding us is what makes us free. Here is the reason Jesus came:

"By the tender mercy of our God (the Father)... the Dayspring (Jesus) has visited (arrived among) us from above, to give light (revelation, understanding) to those who sit in darkness and the shadow of death, [in order] to guide our feet into the way of peace" (Lk. 1:78-79).


Jesus comes to give us light or understanding as to why we are bound by sin, problems, curses, persecution, whatever; He does this so that we, having light, will then follow Him out of the bondage or situation into a place and circumstance where there is peace and not unrest.

Lord, Your Word says that You came to give revelation and light to people who have no vision and therefore see no way out ("those who sit in darkness"), to people who are, because they cannot see a way out, discouraged ("those who sit in darkness and the shadow of death"; i.e. discouragement), so that You can guide them by the right way into a safe environment where they have peace. Give Jenny Your light (insight) and revelation (understanding) into her issues and the causes behind them so that she can be encouraged and therefore, hopefully, follow You as You guide her to a place of rest and peace where she is safe and no longer persecuted. Amen.

Jenny, Jesus is the Dayspring, i.e. the Light; He said, "I am the Light of the world. Whoever follows Me will never [perpetually] walk in darkness but will have the light of Life... I have come as a Light into the world so that no one who believes in Me (follows Me) should stay (remain, continue) in darkness (lack of direction, oppression, confusion, unrest, bondage)" (Jn. 8:12, 12:46). You can't know how to follow Him out of bondage unless you can see Him; to see Him, He must give you light (revelation) as to what is keeping you in bondage. Remember that He said, "If you continue in My word, then you are truly My disciples (followers of Mine). Then you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free" (Jn. 8:31-32). You will need His light (revelation) if you will be able to see to follow Him out of your oppressive circumstances. I will send you a private message. Please check for it.

Hi. I am sorry to hear about your situation.

It sounds wonderful that your little brother will be graduating - that is great for him! You must be very proud.

In Jesus Name, I hope that your family will not persecute you. I also hope that you are able to find a way to have relief from the situation if you want it.
