Well, it is a big prayer request enough that I just moved from Houston to Austin to live with my aunt and uncle, I haven't found a church yet, and my Mom is depressed having just been put in a nursing home...
But now I am being persecuted by my aunt here and I have no support from any other because none of my family I know up here are Christian. My aunt told me that she could teach me more then God ever could. She told me she was going to give me "deprogramming sessions" so that she could teach me how to live in the world and live less serving something that probably doesn't exist. She tells me my quiet time is a waste of time and that I need to stop being a child and depend on my own wisdom and strength instead of God's. She said it was okay for when I was 5 years old, but now that I am grown, I need to center myself on something like work. She thinks I am stupid for not believing in evolution, and and laughs and mocks me when I pray. She is constantly challenging me on God's existence, and I hold my tongue and cry out to God from the pain that I feel. I feel so totally alone, even though I know God is there for me... there are a ton of things she tells me that are so shocking you probably wouldn't believe me if I told you... But please, . Please pray for me for that is all anyone could do.
Pray that I remain spirit-filled and remain steadfast in my faith no matter what. She might be discouraging to me at times, but she can no way deter me from my faith... I refuse to go back to the carnal world I use to live in, living for myself and not for God. I just refuse.
But also pray that I have wisdom because I have been made power of attorney. The biggest thing is the "Do Not Resusitate..." I don't know whether to sign that paper or not and I have to make a decision so that they will know what to do if something were to happen to my Mom.
