I know how you feel, I'm in the thick of it myself.<BR/>I think some parents are better cut out to be parents of certain ages than others. Teens are not my gifting. <BR/>I have prayed for you actually, since I read this and thought about something good and honest to say about the matter that would be encouraging. But, I'm parenting 2 teenagers and a preteen, by myself, and sometimes it's just so overwhelming I can't find the good in it. So you can pray for me too if you think about me.<BR/>What I do want to say is, you never know what the teen years will be like for each child. Some are rougher than others. God will provide your need in the hour you need it for whatever challenges the upcoming years may bring. <BR/>I have been blessed by your heart for the Lord and your devotion to following him! I know that faithful heart you possess will pay off in parenting. There may be a few rough years where it seems like all your efforts are in vain. I'm in the midst of those right now. The middle of the tunnel where you can't see the end, or if there is a light around that bend. I'm told by so many that it is not in vain. So I will pass that on to you.<BR/>But you know, it may be smooth sailing with Drew after all. One thing I try to remember is to take it one day at at time and don't borrow the troubles of tomorrow, which is a weakness for me. So you, the same, take today as it comes and tomorrow is not here yet.<BR/>Plus we know God's word says if we raise our children in Him, when they are old they won't depart from it. I cling to that sometimes, other times I need the reminder myself.<BR/>Hang on for dear life, and make sure your grip is on the Lord. You can trust He will hold on to you and your son. And like Breanne said God will give you wisdom to know what to do. Then you also have Brad and he seems like a very supportive hubby. <BR/>As I say all this, I have to try to remember it for myself. I'm not telling you this because I've been there and back and now I'm on the other side. No, I'm still drowning in it. But I see a lot of people standing on shore telling me there is salvation yet.ponderinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14791281161493347566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7160876989879969320.post-43619476494159056522008-07-26T09:54:00.000-06:002008-07-26T09:54:00.000-06:00Oh man - how crazy! and scary.
