Today is my oldest son's birthday. He's 43 today. He always was a daddy's boy, so the divorce hit him the hardest. Yet for many years he did stand up and look out for mom.
Over the years he's told many a good story, I guess you could call it reality from his eyes, even though a lot of it was untrue. I've heard some of the wild stories told. I've been confronted by those that believe his lies.
He used to pop into my life from time to time, until a few years ago. For reasons I don't know or understand he has completely shut the door between us. His little sister has done her own share of things to come between us and His dad has a lot to answer for when he stands before the Lord. Lying to the kids is but one of them. Turning the kids against their mother would be another. The damages he and his wife have done to all the kids, a shame.
I have 2 granddaughters that I've only ever met a handful of times. Their mom a daughter in law that has tried to bring them around but been trapped by the 'other side of the family' drama. My son didn't want me in his life or his children's lives, so I being me have respected that. I only hope he makes his peace with the Lord before it's too late.
There is nothing worse than the feeling of knowing your child is headed to hell not heaven. You pray daily and you hold onto hope. You know you can't buy them a ticket this time, they have to make it their own journey. I can only pray that God will someday reach his heart and help him see the errors of his ways.
Blessed by God
