I had a discussion with some one in my family about another family member who has had an alchohal and drug problem.
He has been on and off of alchohal for years now, and she feels he has been on drugs as well. Me personally, I have never seen him do a drug or even act as though he was on a drug (I know from working with people who have abused many drugs) but ok.
I was talking with her about having to go and pick him up from a customer/friend's house (we do home remodeling on the side) who had called me because the fmily member had gottne drunk.
So to make a long story short, I'm venting to a person who I thought I could be real with, without fear of judgement. Ministers you know what I mean. Sometimes you need to just be Brandon, and not Min. Brandon, feel me?
Well she told me I was stupid for having faith that he could change. She didn't care if he died because to her, he was already dead.
She had more to say, but I was like, "Are you serious?" what is the point of reading the bible and believing in God if you don't believe in his power?
So decided to share that with you all to see if you're as taken back as I was by this. I thought we served a God that can do anything, and he has all power in his hands? But if someone is seemingly beyond repair, we just forget about them?
It's amazing how when it came to finances, or everything being alright she was very religious. But when it came down to her own family, it was let him die, I care nothing about him?
Crazy to me.
D you not really believe that God can do exceedingly abundantly above all? I mean that's not just a cliche. Not jut something we say to make us feel good, HE REALLY CAN DO ANYTHING!!! I don't know, how bout some imput on this?
