    Our oldest son has cut us off and won't allow us to see our grandkids. It's heartbreaking but he wants us to stop being Christians. We must cling to Jesus and pray like crazy!

      We're so sorry you're having trouble with your son @lorismith2484. Please know that we will be praying for you, asking the Lord to reveal Himself to your son and provide you and your family with His perfect peace. You may find this article helpful- bit.ly/3OzmVRU.

      Ask if he'll meet with you and them at a public restaurant for an hour once a month and agree not to talk about anything Christian. This might help. I have seen similar help, sometimes. Prayers. M arr

      If you haven’t yet watched her video titled “Laughing In the Dark”, I recommend it so highly. Our Griefshare group watched it and wept so hard together but it also helped us to better articulate the conflicting emotions we were all feeling.

      @@elliemathews6884 That is so true. Bible has mother against daughter, father against son. And so on the devil wants everyone to be against each other. That is only mission.

    Wow, what a wonderful sense of humor. To make fun of another belief, to take God’s grace lightly as Him dying on the cross doesn’t mean anything, and to totally disrespect her grandmother’s wishes.
    Yes, I am one of those holiness people that she is talking about. You don’t do it because you think it’s wrong. You do it because you think it is right. There is no need to make fun of that like everyone else thinks it’s right to live the way that they live. I’m not making fun of them so I don’t know why they would make fun of what I believe.
    Now, informing someone that they are wrong is a different story. That is not making fun of someone that is just informing them and helping them to see, they believe is the truth.
    Really pushing my feelings aside her making light of God’s grace is just awful!! And actually it might even be blasphemous!
