Sounds like he’s got some bad influencers in his life. Just dang. It’s tough enough being a teen w/o having to follow along with thugs like that.
I pray that all will work out well for him (and all of you) and that this will be the wake up call that he needs.
Sigh
This breaks my heart. I understand what you are going through. I don’t know what to say and I am not the Padre, but I can say this: Jesus Lord our salvation, take hold of this child and lead him into the path you wish him to be on. I believe in my heart that he is a good kid.
Search his heart and lead him Father. Please. You said if we gather before you, You will answer. We stand on this. We see him as an officer in the military; Please let this be.
Again, I am not the Padre but I believe in you and I believe in this kid.
Make it so Father. And look over his mom if it is in Your will.
In Jesus name
Pappy
