We hear your heartfelt cry to the Lord, and we join you in lifting these burdens before Him. Your desire to be a better husband, father, employee, and follower of Christ is commendable, and we see the sincerity in your words. Let us first address the areas where the Lord may be calling you to grow, even as we stand with you in prayer.

You mentioned struggling with and, whatever these may be, we know that the Lord is faithful to help you overcome them. If these struggles involve sinful habits, such as excessive drinking, we must gently but firmly remind you that Scripture warns against being controlled by anything other than the Spirit. "Do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery, but be filled with the Spirit" (Ephesians 5:18 WEB). Alcohol in moderation is not forbidden, but when it becomes a means of escape or dulls your spirit, it can hinder your walk with God. We encourage you to seek accountability and replace this habit with godly disciplines, prayer, Scripture, and fellowship with believers who can strengthen you.

You also expressed gratitude for your family and your relationship with Christ, which is beautiful. However, we must ask: Are you actively leading your household spiritually? As the head of your home, you are called to love your wife as Christ loved the church (Ephesians 5:25 WEB) and to train your children in the ways of the Lord (Proverbs 22:6 WEB). If your adult children are not walking with the Lord, we urge you to intercede for them daily and model a life of faith before them. Your example speaks louder than words.

Your question about why good people suffer is one that has weighed on the hearts of believers for generations. We do not have all the answers, but we know that God is sovereign and that suffering entered the world because of sin (Romans 5:12 WEB). Yet even in suffering, God works for the good of those who love Him (Romans 8:28 WEB). Your brother’s loss is heartbreaking, and we grieve with you. But we also know that God is near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18 WEB). Encourage your brother to draw close to the Lord, for He alone can heal his sorrow.

Now, let us pray together:

Heavenly Father, we come before You with humble hearts, lifting up our brother who seeks to follow You more closely. Lord, we thank You for his desire to be a better husband, father, and man of God. Strengthen him in his weaknesses, and help him to overcome the struggles that weigh on his heart. Fill him with Your Holy Spirit so that he may walk in victory, not in the flesh but in the power of Christ.

Father, we pray for his wife and children. Draw them closer to You, and let their home be a place of peace, love, and godly example. Give them wisdom in their decisions and comfort in their struggles. For his brother who mourns, we ask that You wrap Your arms around him. Let him feel Your presence and find hope in You, the God of all comfort.

Lord, we do not understand all things, but we trust in Your goodness. Help us to rest in Your sovereignty, knowing that You work all things for our good. Teach us to number our days and to live with purpose, honoring You in all we do.

We ask all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

Continue to seek the Lord daily, brother. Spend time in His Word, for it is a lamp to your feet and a light to your path (Psalm 119:105 WEB). Surround yourself with godly men who can encourage you and hold you accountable. And remember, the same power that raised Christ from the dead lives in you (Romans 8:11 WEB). You are not alone in this battle. Press on, and may the Lord bless you and your family abundantly.

We hear the deep honesty in your words, the gratitude that's real, the ache of questions that have no tidy answers, and the desire to keep becoming the man God created you to be. That you can lie there and name both your peace and your struggle at the same time says something true about the Christian life: we are works in progress, held secure while still being shaped.

The question you asked about your brothers has no answer that satisfies in the dark. We don't know why brain cancer took two of them, or why your remaining brother lives alone now. What we do know is that your grief over it matters to God. He does not dismiss your "why." He bears it with you.

We also notice you are not hiding. You named your drinking plainly, even while it looks like a moment of rest. That kind of honest self-awareness is a gift, don't lose it. The path of becoming a better husband, dad, and man doesn't require you to fix everything tonight. It starts with not facing it alone. Is there one trusted person in your life, a pastor, a mature friend, someone you respect, who knows the full picture of what you're wrestling with? Carrying it by yourself keeps it heavier than it needs to be. Reaching out isn't weakness; it's how God wired us to recover and grow.

We also want to say gently: if you ever find yourself drinking heavily or regularly, especially when you're alone, we'd encourage you to speak with your doctor about it. They can help assess what's going on physically and point toward support. That's not a replacement for prayer, it's part of how we steward the life God gave us.

For tonight, rest in this: your prayer was heard. You don't have to earn the right to be listened to. The same Jesus who saw you reach for that drink saw you reach for Him too, and He didn't turn away.

Lord Jesus, thank You for this man's honesty, for the peace he feels right now, and for the ache beneath it. Hold his brother close in that empty house. Surround his wife and adult kids with provision we can't see. And in the quiet, steady work of changing him, give him one clear next step and the courage to take it. We ask this in Your name, Amen.

[Spurgeon]

To obey, even in the slightest and smallest thing, is better than sacrifice, and to hearken diligently to the Lord's commands is better than the fat of rams. Both ought to be joined together. But of the two, better is the act of obedience than of giving! Let your prayer be, "My God, my Father, be my Guide.

Since You have dealt so well with me in these external matters, give me Grace within my heart, give me the true riches, give me to love Your Son and trust in Him to be forever Your child." Christ's love is better than wine because of what it is not. It comes to the child of God without purchase and without merit and, in this respect, it is better than wine. I rejoice in Christ as He is now exalted at the right hand of the Father, but, first of all, I must know Him as despised and rejected of men. Marah, though it is bitter, is also better.

O Israel, it is early days to be falling out with your new Husband! You have not such an appetite as you would afterwards have if you waited another hour and, sometimes, the Lord may keep you waiting for His supplies that you may enjoy them all the better when they do come. That day Israel began to understand that word of their father Abraham when He said to Isaac, as you remember, "My son, God will provide." Trials must and will befall and your little one who is born today is born to an inheritance of grief. But look, now, at the saint when he dies.

It is absolutely certain that he has done with sorrow, done with pain. It is not for you to know the times or the seasons which the Father has put in His own power. But there is something better than knowing the times or the seasons, it is good for us to know that they are in the Father's power. He must arrange it rightly.

He must arrange it in infinite love to us. It cannot be that, in some dark hour yet to come, He will forget us. He is our Father, will He forget His children? Be of good courage, then, and fear not!

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. When the Divine Father is viewed aright, He becomes the object of our gratitude, not of our dread. He says, "He that has seen Me has seen the Father," and, "I say not that I will pray the Father for you, for the Father Himself loves you." May the Father deal with us according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus, and to Father, Son and Holy Spirit be glory forever and ever. Amen.

I prayed for this request in Jesus Name.

 

[Chrysostom]

Your prayer rises to heaven, and it is good that you give thanks and yearn to become a better husband, father, and man. Yet you lie in bed with drink in your hand, and this very thing fights against the noble desires you express. The Lord Jesus, when He sat at the well with the Samaritan woman, knew the secrets of her life, her husbands, the man who was not her husband, and He gently drew her to truth. He knows your hidden struggles also. Do not suppose that peace comes through a bottle while the television drones; true peace is the fruit of a sober soul clinging to Christ.

You ask to be a better husband. Hear the Apostle: the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ is head of the Church and the Savior of the body. How did Christ love the Church? Not by indulging Himself, but by giving Himself up for her. If you would truly please your wife and win her heart, do it not with words while your hand holds wine, but with gentleness, meekness, and a holy life. Nothing is more unattractive in a man than a sluggish spirit dulled by drink. The wife who sees her husband sober, prayerful, and earnestly striving after virtue will reverence him far more than one who merely speaks of love while enslaved to appetite. Honor her, then, by making yourself worthy of honor, and know that as you grow in godliness you sanctify your home.

For your adult children, cease from worldly fretting and follow the example of Abraham’s servant, who when sent to find a bride for Isaac prayed, “Whomsoever Thou wilt, do Thou provide.” Commit them to God in prayer; seek for them not wealth or worldly standing, but piety and the fear of the Lord. Your own example of sobriety and repentance will preach more loudly than any sermon.

You wonder why good people die from things beyond their control, your brothers taken by cancer, your grieving sibling alone. The judgments of God are a great deep, and we must not pry curiously into what He has hidden. But remember that Christ Himself, the only truly Good One, died an unjust death, and by it He trampled down death. The afflictions of the righteous are a mystery of love, purifying them like gold in a furnace. Instead of letting this question drive you to the numbness of alcohol, let it drive you to compassion. Rise from your bed, go to your brother, and with a clear mind comfort him with the hope of the resurrection. A sober friend is a strong refuge; a drunken one adds sorrow to sorrow.

The Samaritan woman, when Christ revealed her life, did not flee in anger but instead perceived Him to be a Prophet and pressed Him for truth. Do the same: bring every hidden fault into His light, and ask not for earthly ease but for the living water of holiness. Your desire to be a better employee and man is a spark from the Spirit, but it will be smothered if you do not break the chains of self-indulgence. Let your thanksgiving in prayer be matched by the sacrifice of your appetites. God will give courage to those who earnestly strive and who lean not on their own strength but on the grace of His Son. Stand up, then, put away the bottle, and walk as a child of the day.
