Prayer: God, things arn't going too well. My older sister lives with grandma now. I can't even see my grandma cause of what happened a few months ago.. My parents are still drinking all the time and doing drugs behind my back. My mom screams at me about me and my christianity and tells me she doesnt want God in this house. My twin just doesnt wanna *hear* about God anymore. Shes too concerned about herself, and herself only. Not about what God wants for her. God, I'm falling apart. My family is breaking me. My friends are all turned to drinking to solve their problems. and I'm trying so hard to be who you have made me to be. At Life Group last night i was prayed over and someone said, "Your a target. Satan wants you in his kingdom." no! why would he want me? I'm so dedicated and so close with Christ. and i was thinking.. maybe he's using my family to bring me down? Idk. But i just can't let that happen. God, I need you so much. I've choosed to spend eternity with you. I've applied for a christian college without my parents knowing, and i know i dont have money to go but if its your Will to be there, you'll provide and help me get there. God, that college means everything to me. if i have to put that off till the Spring, then i want to move out of my house but i cant till i'm 18. I cant take this anymore. My mom wants me gone. i dont understand. I'm a good person, a good daughter. I do what she asks of me yet i still get put down like anything i do is never good enough. *sigh* Lord, protect me in this home and clearify to me your Will and guide me to where you want me to be. and i pray that the Holy Spirit will speak to me if i'm not going the right way. God, I am yours. Forever. I know you'll never let me go and i dont want to let you go and i dont wanna let you down. so God, please help me get through these days living at home. I can't do this alone anymore. I surrender.
