Please pray about my dad's chest problems

[Lady Bug]

Unfortunately my dad and I are constantly fighting, he suddenly gets angry when I try to defend my position on something and it culminates into this horrible shouting match and me calling him really bad names. Now he has chest problems and feelings on the left side of his body and I think he's taking medicine for it.

I'm feeling very bad for him yet very resentful that he doesn't quit fighting when I tell him to. I don't know what to say.

Try to not aggravate him and just say: everyone has a different view, and leave it alone. It sounds symptomatic of a heart problem, and I suppose the meds he is taking is for that. One must know that meds can help, but without a change in lifestyle a cardiac arrest can happen without much warning.

It may be a message from God to think about eternity, and where it will be spent. You might suggest your father take a look at what God says to us in His Word. Invite him to read John 1; John 3; John 14 and pray to God about it.

I am sorry you are in this position. I'll pray for your situation and your dad. Even though you think you are right in your position which you might be, the bible says to honor your parents even if they are wrong. God will reward you for it.

There would be no fighting if you chose to not engage. It is a terribly difficult thing to do, but it is how you honor your father. Your stress comes from wanting him to validate your position; you need to accept the fact that he will not. The sooner you do, the less stress on all of you.

My mother was like your father. It took me a long time to learn this lesson, but my life got so much better when I did. I hope it doesn't take you as long as it took me.

I'm praying for you and your dad. My dad and I used to argue a lot when I was a lot younger.

Seeing that your dad is Islamic pray Jesus to fill your heart with love and compassion for him for he is part of a false religion - he is in a religion that cannot save him from his sin - he is badly misled.

The good thing of a heart full of compassion is that you are far less likely to argue with him than when your heart is driven by anger or fear. Pray for his soul ladybug it is the least you can do for him (and your mum.)
