this is my first post. My 25 year old son is a heroin addict. Recently relapsed while living here after coming home from 18 months of prison. We let him detox here but now he is in an Oxford house..... obviously I could go on and on with my story but the answer to this particular post is "I pray without ceasing", shortly after my son was incarcerated back in 2009 one of the pastor's at my church gave me a little book entitled "Jesus Calling" I can't tell you what a blessing it has been! It is uncanny how often the daily reading seems to be exactly what I need. I am a follower of Christ, He is my rock. I've learned that God's peace is not the absence of trouble but the very strength that carries us through it. My life has been FULL of chaos the last couple of weeks yet God's presence has been tangible to me. I cannot imagine where I'd be without it ... probably in a psych ward somewhere
