My teen has decided to go back to Louisiana and live with my mom and dad... it breaks my heart ...my son hasn't even been here long enough to adjust here or to give his stepdad a chance... he also misses his brother who lives with my parents and hasn't made any friends here... I don't think that any good can come of it... no discipline there... I fear both of my teen boys have become "theirs" and there is strained behavior between us... and I need to be strong... along with my ex who wants custody of my two younger children... I need strength and peace from God to deal with this... they are leaving Saturday... we are meeting my ex half way... I pray that he brings the young ones back in two weeks like he said... and that my car makes the drive there and back.

Robin-
How hard and worrisome. And at Christmas. I am offering up my day for you. God can bring good from any situation- let us pray for you and cling to that!

Thank you so much for praying~ this situation is worse than I thought... I just received some more bad news last night, and then a whopper of bad news today... sigh... but God is in control... I trust in HIM... He gives and takes away... well, ok then.
Thank you so much for the support!~ my name has been slandered so much that I have absolutely NO ONE from former friends and family... I feel so alone... and I feel like a convicted felon in their eyes... a felon with absolutely no chance of getting any forgiveness... and I have always taken everything silently... now, as I try to speak up and defend myself, I am not believed... I'm certainly not perfect, but I have tried.

You are never alone, dear friend. Our Lord will carry you through this and we are more than happy to pray for you during this time of extreme trial.
I am praying for you through the intercession of St. Michael, who was a mighty warrior for me at this time last year...he was trusted to defend the angels from evil...

I'm praying for you, Robin, as well as all your intentions! May these painful circumstances serve only to draw you closer to Our Lord, and may your sincere prayers for your children be efficacious! I'm asking St. Monica to stand at your side as you pray! Have holy patience and courage! You're fighting the good fight!

Robin, I am so sorry! I know how it feels to be utterly alone. Cling to Our Lord and His Blessed Mother. Say constantly, "Jesus, I trust in You." You are in my prayers!
