I am so sorry that you got such a disrespectful and nasty response from your daughter. She has the Liberal Talking Points down pat, even quoting George Carlin as a “Moral Authority”. My heart goes out to you.

Please take comfort in the fact that there IS hope, as I was an extremely rebellious teen, a “flower child”, socialist, agnostic, angry, grievance-driven, trial to my loving parents.

They must have prayed for me, because now I am a Conservative, Tea-Party, Evangelical, Christian, FReeper who posts two daily prayer threads on FR.

And...I read your essay and agree with you.

“Take Heart, and Fear not. Let not your heart be troubled, for I have overcome the world”....Jesus.

Thank you so much for your post. I pray for my kids always and I still hold out hope that they will turn to Jesus before it's too late, especially my daughter. My boys are much more sensitive to the Spirit than she is and I'm thankful for that. She's in outright rebellion mode.

On my FB page, I told her that I've finally come to the realization that she'll "have to figure out the fire is hot" just like she did when she just a little girl. Sometimes they just don't realize the errors of their ways until they get burned. If that's what it takes, then so be it, but I rest in the confidence of my Lord that He'll see them all back to the truth.

Thank you again for your kind and encouraging words. If I may ask, what prayer threads do you have on FR?
