I couldn't agree with you more Marle. when my SA was growing up I saw him give himself to his HP ( or The Lord, Allah, whatever or whoever u believe ) and 5 minutes later he found his hampster ( that he loved ) dead. He cried & cried & blamed himself for not taking better care of him. I think my son was 11.
He was away from his HP for a few yrs & when he was in jail he came bk to his faith. Now my son believes with his whole heart & soul, when he is in jail he attends church regularly & witnesses to others about his faith. When he is released he does well for awhile & then starts missing church, starts using again & falls. I believe my sons faith is real but his flesh is weak. I also believe his HP has a plan for his life & in His time it will be revealed.........thats the thought that keeps me going.
I do believe in evil, if u believe in God you have to believe in the devil.
Love,
Diane
So glad u brought this up. again
