Lord, help!

SBC

Humble Servant of All
I'm in need of prayer. I hurt inside/out. I'm embarrassed and tired. My life is a mess and I'm questioning God "Why?" My husband has PTSD and left 5 months ago. I have 4 boys, 3 with a marijuana problem with no desires of working or attending school. I live with my parents. It really hurts to be there and feel unwanted. Yet, I can't afford my own place. So yesterday I reached a very low place of not only being rejected by my extended family but by my husband who also has a substance problem. I hurt so much seeing my loved ones with addiction and divided. I'm unsure of what God wants from me. Please pray for me. Pray for their salvation. Pray for me. I need guidance and strength to endure this. I thought they knew the Lord. My kids grew up in church. 
 
You just need to be very still before the Lord and take some deep breathes.  You are beat up pretty badly and you need the tender loving care of the Lord.  He is so very near and He hears the cries of your heart. Just sit here with Him and me for a little while. ok The good thing about Him is you don't even say a word. He knows everything already and He is working even now to help you. That is just how HE is always amazing.  He says, Don't worry, trust Him.  He wants you to learn more about Him. Start in the Book of John the first chapter. Read some everyday.  You will find out who HE is to you. HE loves that when it happens. He loves you and has been looking forward to this meeting with you for some time now. Life has taken a toll on you but He has some great plans of His own for you. He wants you to just rest in Him for a while. Just rest and read about Him for a little while. Cast all your cares right at His feet and rest... just rest right now. He has everything under control. 
 
Thank you! I've read all of John, Psalms, Mark, since my husband left. I'm finishing Mathew. I may read Job next since I feel like him...I know not as bad but oh boy! Thank you for the encouragement.
 
Dear one , when things in our life seem too much to take then with every ounce of strength that you have within you , RUN to the Lord and hang onto His promises for you . He will never abandon you in your time of need , all of us have choices to make and you cannot make your husband and children live for the Lord , but they are watching you by example so it is so important that they see Jesus in you . There are times when we all feel so tired and weak and that is when the enemy tries to discourage us with his lies , fight him back with the word of God . I pray that you will feel the presence of the Lord and that His love for you overwhelms you , and that His peace and joy flow through you and then out of you and into your family . Blessings !
