Bible Question: I live in a alcoholic family, and I also am an alcoholic, (not Drinkig) There is so much insanity and rage in the family, and I have allowed myself to instigate and retaliate agaisnt the harms that have been done to us. "honor thy father and mother" is something i am incabale of doing. I feel with the things that have happened ,,, perhaps repentance wont even clean my sins,"to hate your brother is to murder him" |
Bible Answer: spenceg, I will lift you up in prayer, my friend. As this is a Study Bible Forum, it's not suited to counselling, so I would recommend seeing a Pastor or someone else to confide in. Two points may help: 1. You're not beyond forgiveness. That is what Christ provided through the cross (Eph. 1:7) 2. You may not be able to "honor your father or mother", but Christ living through you can! Your (and my) weaknesses are Christs' strengths! (2 Cor. 12:9) I trust this will help, BradK |
