    Please pray for my family. There's been such an increase of evil & spiritual rebellion. God is a God of the impossible but it seems my family will never convert.

    My parents have been very abusive, majority of the parents from both sides of my family are.

    My brother lives with his gf. I'm very concerned for his kids, I love them as my own.

    I pray hard, I cry, I pray. It's hard for me to accept my family wants to inflict evil on their very own - their blood. Why they'd want to do that to anyone, but these are just the times we're living in.

    I pray God keeps His faithful protected from the daily (harsher) blows of the devil. I know so many ppl feel the same & are going thru the exact same thing.

    Thank you, God's beloved! :love:

    Thank you!!

    Actually, my domestic Church has been the biggest indicator of how far gone the world is (unfortunately). I hate to be blunt but with each passing year my family members have gotten worse. Taking pleasure in such evil. I pray God relieves us all very soon. :cry:

    I also have a 'dysfunctional' family but this cross is blessed and I pray for them and believe they will be saved. :notworthy:

    If it is any comfort you are not alone. I know so many devout Catholics--mothers or aunts or grandmother's or fathers or grandfather's or a siblings who are the sole believer. The only interceder on behalf of their loved ones. But I have realized what a great grace and favor from Our Lord this is. He had not abandoned these poor sinners but has placed in their midst one who storms heaven on their behalf. Surely these souls will be saved--if only at the last minute. " that you may know that I am Yahweh and no one who hoped in Me is disappointed."( from Isaiah)

    @JMJforever Praying for you and your family!

    I’m in a situation similar to this. I’m really hoping for a reverse Saint Monica/Saint Augustine situation for me and my parents/grandparents.

    It still breaks my heart when it's the children (like us) being the ones worried for our family's souls. Usually it's the other way around lol! :ROFLMAO::cry:

    Usually ppl are worried about their wayward children, we are worried about our wayward parents/grandparents, Aunts & Uncles.

    I won't sugarcoat my experience but they are the ones that were meant to set an example... (n):cry:

    Pray pray praying .. our adversary has certainly been redoubling his efforts in everyway to destroy God's intentions for family life.

    The Second Luminous Mystery ~ The Wedding Feast at Cana

    "Sometimes, even our best, beautiful dreams, our hard work and troubles – all go to nothing. Great works demand making sacrifices but sometimes we reach a wall. Let us pray that we – like Mary – know how to humbly show this situation to Jesus and that we strongly believe that even out of the greatest failure, He is able to produce the most unexpected good."​
