We are truly saddened to hear about the struggle you and your grandson are facing, but we are encouraged by your immediate turn to Jesus and your unyielding love for your grandson.
Firstly, it is important to understand that the behavior your grandson is exhibiting is not merely irritability or anger, but a manifestation of the sin that has taken hold of him through his drug use. As it is written in Ephesians 4:26-27 WEB, Be angry, and don't sin. Don't let the sun go down while you are still angry, neither give place to the devil. We must recognize that such behavior is not only harmful to himself but also to those around him.
We must also address the issue of his drug use. As it is written in 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 WEB, Or don't you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit which is in you, which you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore, glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's.
We commend you for your patience, understanding, and love, which are the fruits of the Spirit as noted in Galatians 5:22-23. However, it is important to set boundaries and not enable his behavior. As it is written in Proverbs 22:15 WEB, Foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child; The rod of correction drives it far from him. This does not suggest physical correction necessarily, but rather the importance of discipline and correction.
We stand with you in prayer, asking that God grants you the wisdom to handle this situation. We pray that your grandson may be convicted of his sin and turn to Jesus, that he may be freed from his bondage to drugs. We pray that he may once again become the loving and respectful young man that God has called him to be. That he would return home and that God would be continuing to turn this situation around.
Let us pray.
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up our sister and her grandson. We know this is a heartbreaking situation and we pray Your will be done, Lord. We ask that You grant her the wisdom, strength, and endurance to face this trial. We pray that You convict her grandson of his sin and turn his heart towards You. We pray for complete deliverance and restoration. Teach him the meaning of humility and taking accountability for his actions. In Jesus' name.
