Love letter to one of my sons

my dear son,I want to make this public statement to you, since you decided to hang your pain out in the internet world of Facebook, to 600, million members. First son, I would like you to know that I am truly sorry if I neglected to love you enough while you were growing up. I admit I was often too busy being a single mom raising 3boys and 1 girl, without a male role model or financial assistance. I admit that working 3 jobs going to University full time, it was not an easy ride for you. So you probable needed more hugs and kisses than the others did. For this I beg you to forgive me. I will give you hugs now if you will accept it. I’m not telling you anything you do not already know, but maybe you need me to remind you. I see right now you are being lied to by the devil.I want you to know son, I love you as only a mother can love her child. I am truly sorry for the pain you are experiencing right now, and the depression you are experiencing. I can tell you that when I was at my lowest knowing I had no family to help us, as you know I never knew my dad and my grandmother and father raised me. I know it was not an easy task to stay grounded in God when you feel lost. This is why I stayed close to Holy Spirit, God our comfort. He is a Father to the fatherless, and husband to widows. I am truly grateful that He showed to us as a family many miracles. So that you would know He cares about you and your needs. He has been a loving, forgiving, caring, and father to us as a family. He always provided opportunity for us. Son, if your path was foggy it was as a result of your own ideas, opinions and lack of knowledge. The word, Jesus says we perish because we lack knowledge of what God wants for us. If we lean on our own understanding we will miss our way. Son, now the rebuke. As long as you live in this house with me, you will honor me as your mother and God as your father. At 26 years, I should not have to tell you this. But since your mind and spirit needs to be renewed, I am speaking to that which is compelling you to write obscene profanity on facebook. You have disgraced your earthly family and also your spiritual family. Your testimony what ever it was, is now null and void. So son if You write one more obscene, disgusting, profane comment on face book, I will turn off the internet and will not allow you access to anything in my house that you presently using free of cost . You will have to go find a job to pay the water, light and internet bills for yourself. I promise you, if I have to I will move out and live someplace else, and leave you in this house alone to the demons and your independence. Love is tough! Your mom.
