My father and mother seperated when I was 5 on account of his gambling... i did not find this out till I was in my 30's..... Just this Sunday my sister called me and told me that he had been missing for a week, and called her Sunday and asked her for money... then called her 18 year old daughter and asked HER for money!!!!
Im sure! He has an addiction that has landed him with nothing to show for his work over the years cause he spends his money gambling... I am going to please ask for my father's redemption and that we all pray for him..
My father is a good father , but the gambling.. he is my best friend and it hurts to know he's suffering this addiction. Please pray for my Pop. I love him...
:cry:

Father, I stand in agreement with this prayer. May THY will be done for you want and know what is best. I pray in the name of Our Lord Jesus Christ that he is cured of this addiction and that this is used for your good. Perhaps he can eventually help others. Draw the family closer to you and to each other. Give them comfort, peace and wisdom during their wait for thy will. Thank you for this and for all you do, Amen

“Again, I say to you, that if two of you are in agreement on earth about anything for which they will make a request, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. For where two or three come together in my name; there am I with them." Matthew 18:18-20.

“Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ has forgiven you.”—Ephesians 4:32


Dear American Princess, sorry that I missed your post earlier. I just want to say that you are doing the best thing you can possibly do for your dad, lifting him up in prayer! He is lucky to have you! Congrats on your upcoming wedding. Keep the faith, nothing is too hard for Our Father. God Bless!:wave:

My dad had a serious problem also. Here is the help he got. Talk to your dad about this.

Father God I pray that you will change this man's heart. May he be after You rather then money. Father God this man worships only money. He has become obssessed. God I pray that You will work something into his life that will make a huge change. Father help him to see that he is tearing his life apart by this. I pray that he does not have to hit rock bottom before he realizes this!
