| My girlfriend of 11 years relapsed and OD'd two weeks ago. We were broke up at the time (as we often are) because although she is a believer she has had problems remaining drug free all her life. I have loved her since we first met in rehab. I have always wanted to marry her some day, but not until she is clean and stable. She is from a VERY dysfunctional family. All her 8 siblings AND her parents are abusers. Drugs, violence, thefts, you name it. She is very emotionally unstable to say the least, but has one of the biggest hearts I've ever encountered. She was admitted to the hospital Oct. 1st and placed in the intensive care unit. I heard the news the next day and have been by her bed side every day since, praying. She has been in a medically induced coma until yesterday. Now that she is coming to, it appears she has suffered some substantial damage to her brain. She is babbling and cussing like a drunkin' sailor. I am so very grateful the Lord heard my prayers and spared her life, but I am now confused as to what to do next. She has 3 children, and when she gets out she will have lost her apartment and will not have the mind and physical abilities to work. I am unemployed and live in a small 2 bdrm apt. I don't know if it's my place as a servant of God (and someone who loves her) to try to take care of her, or let her (dysfunctional) family carry the burden and just continue to pray??? I am waiting to here from God, and hoping for some wisdom from this website. Please pray and answer if led. Thank you. May the Lord bless you! |

Thank you George! I will stay in the Word. I've been praying a lot and the Lord has given me peace today. Praise his holy name!!!
He said; Cease striving and know that I am God! I know satan want's me to doubt, but I am REFUSING! God has a great blessing in this thing somewhere! Thanks again and many blessings to you!
