This prayer is for my daughter Ginger Nicole P. She has been stuck in a cycle of meth addiction for over 20 years, and needs help. She knows that God loves her, she prays, she just can't get out of the cycle. She needs housing and job, a job that will hire felons. She went to prison for two years for self defense in an abusive relationship. While she was in prison she worked daily, and thrives on work. She currently lives in Texas near Arlington. Please, I pray for her soul, she is my child, I have literally tried everything for 25 years, from prayer, to therapy, to outward bound programs, to church, to rehabs, I spent over 100 thousand dollars on trying to help my daughter over the years. I had to go to tough love with her after attempting everything years ago. This has to be between her and God to create a miracle. I need prayers of seeing her whole and complete with a home and job, healthy and happy. Thank you so very much!

Peace, love and light,

Aleta (Momma whose had a broken heart forever it seems)

Dear Aleta,

I've prayed for your daughter. I can't imagine what this feels like. It sounds like you have been praying faithfully for so long and tried to help doing everything you can think of. Ultimately it's her choice, however. No one else can save her, but Jesus, if she truly accepts and follows Him. She will then find peace, rest, purpose, and all these things will be added to her. Paul in the Bible had it rough, in prison, beaten, shipwrecked, he had a dark past, but he found the secret of being content in all situations through Christ. The external circumstances no longer were allowed to affect his internal joy. I pray this for your daughter to truly embrace and go 'all in' for Jesus. I believe this will break the bondage of addiction and so many other sins and problems that haunt people in this world. God bless you and your daughter.

Thank you so very much for your kind words and prayers for my daughter. She was baptized, and does pray, I don't think enough, or I am unsure. I am grateful for any prayers for her. I know that the only thing that can save her is Jesus, and it's her journey, I've known for years, it's painful, none the less. Again, thank you!
