A couple who are immigrants had three sons since they were in Britain. The middle one, now aged 15 is depressed. Please pray that wrong kinds of treatment will not be imposed on him.

May the Lord put His Healing Hands upon the child. May He lift the boy's spirit up and be a lamp unto his feet. Amen.

Sounds ominous the way you describe the last part. Do you mind sharing more on that part of the concern? I feel it might have something to do with political & social pressure since it is happening in Britain. It is fine if you are not comfortable to share.

They live up a lonely lane. In addition to any professionals being inspired, may especially he be listened to more, by all his acquaintances (I suspect he is a fount of wisdom).

Dear Lord, I pray for guidance and clarity for the parents of this depressed child, and any professionals that they may chose to consult. Guard this 15 year old from any medications that he or she does not need, and help the parents, child, and their assistance come to the root of why this child is depressed. In Christ's Name, Amen
