A Word from the Lord..... for Our Prodigal

During my quiet time this morning as I was looking at a picture of my son and praying over him, the Lord gave me a word. I sat down later and wrote a very difficult letter to him, one that will not be well received. One that I pray the Lord is preparing his heart for this very minute.

I cannot stand the thought of you coming out no better than when you went in. That you would return to living the way you were, making the same decisions, and pursuing the same friends. You CANNOT truly change on your own. You need a real relationship with the Lord. You need His anointing on your life and you need to seek Him and His will for you. I pray for true conviction and repentance in your life. That you will turn from your wicked ways and pursue righteousness. The enemy is at war for your soul.

Parents, never give up on your kids. I believe with all of my heart that everything my son has gone through will not be in vain.  That the Lord will use him in the lives of others. He will be a light in this dark world, that he will be a vessel the Lord uses to draw others to Him. Those that are a lot like my son. Those that have chosen the hard road, time and time again.
Came under a little conviction about the name of this blog that was Life Our Way and put it in the correct perspective of Life His Way.

Returning to my blog has come up several times lately. Not sure if it's the Lord's prompting or my own, but it will be evident as I begin to write and will decide from there.
