It was my son’s birthday in the week and his father didn’t wish him a happy birthday. The next day I was talking to my Heavenly Husband how sore it made my heart to see my son hurt and my Heavenly Husband gave me the most beautiful reply: you don’t have to beg Me to look after our son, just trust Me with him.
Wow I had tears in my eyes, because I didn’t have to beg, I just had to trust my Heavenly Husband and my son’s Heavenly Father.
Janine, I’ve been exactly where you are so many times, where my heart hurt for the lack of love, or attention, or even common decency, that should be given to our children by their father. Now I see the opportunity for our children to have so much much more than an earthly father – – a heavenly one!
Once I heard something very similar from my children’s Father, when everything shifted. Instead of my children, or me, expecting anything FROM a man who was bankrupt emotionally (due no doubt to his own childhood, and lack of what he deserved and needed), my children drew love, and everything they needed from a FATHER, Who’s love and resources are ENDLESS! From that moment on —my children GAVE love to their earthly father, and it continues to this day.
God, no doubt has an absolutely special, unique, and perfect plan for your son and his life. Let me give you this promise on behalf of both of us.
“Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty and marvelous and wondrous things, which you do not know…things to come, things you could never figure out on your own, remarkable secrets…“ J333
Dear Erin, thank you for the beautiful promise, it is so beautiful. I am excited for what my Heavenly Husband is doing in my life and the lives of my sons. Before joining RMI I always felt is this all to life but after joining RMI and accepting the Lord to be my Heavenly Husband and my son’s Heavenly Father, I have hope and a purpose.
It’s definitely harder to endure when its our children being hurt. So thankful for our HL and his promises.
Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken. Ps5522
Dear Hope, I am also so very greatful that He is my children’s Heavenly Father and for all His many promises.
I experience the same thing with Bethia´s Father until this day!!! And as all of you have shared, I remember how hurt she felt by that, and the journey it took us to let her Heavenly Father to heal her!! But she is heal, and know she understands why that happen, and how she should only depend on her Heavenly Father!! She got the most amazing “Quinciañera” )sweet 15 here we celebrate the 15″ by her Heavenly Father!!! And this year she also got an amazing birthday thanks to her Heavenly Father:

HE is the best Father ever and will crown them with joy and love!!
Thank you for sharing my dear Janine!!
Yes dear Isabella He is the best Father and it is a good way to teach our kids that nobody has what we really need, only He has.
Dear Janine, thank you for sharing this and thank you all for the comments. It good not be a better time, i am so encourage by this. My youngest son after almost 4 years is crying every friday when he comes to me. Just recently his father told him that restoration between him and me will never happen. My son is so sad and even when i tell him that he has his Best Friend to talk about what he would like to see happen, he does not want to hear it. He gets angry and telling me that his Best Friend can not help him if his eartly father is telling him that he will never come to his moms house to tickle him before he goes to bed. He will be nine this year and recently i told my HH how much this moment hurts😭me. Encouraging to read that we don’t have to beg but trust Him that He will take care of our children😍
Yes dear Kristine it is so awesome that we don’t have to beg, just trust. We tend to try and fix our kid’s hurt and then my HH brought me to the realization we cann’t do it, He is wil do it, because at the end He is the only one that can do it. We can teach and comfort our children but He heals team. For too long I tried to fix everything only to come to the realization I can’t and that He has it all under control.
Dear Janine
It was so encouraging for me to read your post. I really need to let go some things and ONLY trust Him. And you know, when something goes wrong with our babies, we can feel it in our ‘flesh’ literally.
