| First of all, i want to thank anyone who opened this topic...Thank you for your concern..I highly appreciate that. Guys...My parents were divorced when i was 7 years old (like many other kids). I live with my mom and my stepdad. My stepdad is an alcoholic and he gets drunk every day. But on weekends, he gets extremely drunk and that's when it all starts. Every time he gets drunk he gets mad and starts to take it out on my mom or on me. He has already threatened to beat me and he threatens to beat my mom too. When he's not drunk, he screams at my mom if she doesn't bring him food before 8pm. He also argues with her about how he spends a lot of money on paying bills. I've been asking God for a while to please help me. Well, yesterday i was reading the Bible just because i felt like learning a little more about scriptures and the whole bit. I found that Jesus said to love your enemy...Newman has told me that before but i never really payed much attention to it...I consider my stepdad an enemy of mine..I hate that man so much..I know hatred is a bad thing but i just can't help it..So how am i supposed to like him? I was thinking that maybe if i asked u guys to pray for him to stop acting like that, he would. So i'm asking u guys to please pray for things to get better around here...I highly appreciate it guys, thanks. | |

| When it says love, it doesn't mean like. It doesn't mean you have to go up to someone who bullys you or something and ssay "i love you. You're my best friend." or anything. It just means don't do anything back to them because we are not in a position to judge. God will judge on judgement day. hope that cleared it up for you. And yes ill deff preay for you..you must be havin a rough time. | |

| Basically it's pray for your enemies, in forgiving them you'll recieve forgiveness for your transgressions against God, I know how you feel box, torn between hating someone which is the wrong thing to do, and forgiving them which is often the hardest thing to do, but as with everything in this life, the path to evil is often the easier of the two roads to travel, it's always harder to do the right things. but in the end it'll pay off, you'll be in my prayers though bro, things will get better. | |
