Randy--How's Justin doing?

New member
Just wanted to chech in on Justin and see how he was doing. How are you doing, Randy? We are still in prayer for Justing and you and your wife. I have faith that God will have the victory in all of this. Eph. 8:28.
God loves Justin, God loves you, and so do we. God Bless.
 
He is being held on $100,000 bond and has a court date set for March 10, which is a preliminary hearing.

I have stopped all contact with him because all he does and continues to do is lie to me. He has shown no remorse for what he did to the victim, and he is blaming everyone else but himself for what happened.

I refuse to pay for his collect phone calls from Jail if all he is going to do is lie to me when we talk. I continue to pray for him daily, but I have to do a little bit of what I call "Tough Love". I can not continue to let my family be involved in Justin's "Own Little World" when he refuses to see what is in front of his face. I have explained to my other children that there is nothing we as a Family can do for Justin other that pray form him. I have given it to God, and leaving it in his hands.

I ask that you continue to pray for Justin, that he will see the "Light" and find the Lord.
 
Randy--We will keep on praying for Justin and for you and your family. You are doing the right thing. Sometimes we have to use "tough love" to those we love. I had to with my youngest son when he was arrested. I told him I loved him, but he had to face the consequences of what he had done to get there. He did see the light and got himself straightened out. Justin has to come to the reality of what he did and take responsibility for it. God can help him if he will let God do so. This may be Gods way of getting through to Justin. Having worked in the jail system years ago, I know that is not a good place to be. It may take some harsh actions in prison to get Justins attention, but again God will do what it takes. Have faith that how you are handling this is the right way. If you need anything just let us know. Feel free to PM me anytime. If at anytime you just feel like venting, do so. We are here for you and your family. God Bless you Randy, and your family, and God Bless Justin. Help him Lord find and accept you into his life.

you are doing the right thing. Tough Love is probably tougher on the parent than the kids but still has to be done. I think God is still working on him. It won't be until he has no where else to turn for help that he will cry out to God for His help. Justin hasn't reached the end of his rope. When he is 'broken' then God can raise him up and build on a firm foundation. Asking angels to watch over and protect him as the Lord sees fit to have the angels do that.
 
You are doing the right thing and you have us all praying for all of you. Hang in there GOD is at work.
 
More often than not, tough love just as hard on the family as the one who is the object of it!

May God bless you Randy and strengthen you and your family for the trials and tribulations ahead: and may the Lord touch Justin's heart with his love to awaken him to the love his family truly has for him even in this most trying time.

GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY IN THE WEEKS AHEAD.

Randy,
I have so much respect for what you are doing. Not enough parents show "tough love" today. My Dad always said to me if I were ever arrested he would never bail me out. I knew this did not take away from the love he had or me, but that he would not approve of the actions that led to the outcome. You are doing the right thing. I have a son, and I can't imagine how heartbroken you must be. I will continue to pray for you.
 
I am really sad about Justin, but I too know that "tough love" is what is needed for many who will not listen to God, their parents or the elderly, who know what he is having to face and all of you because of him! Just keep praying for him and tell him you still love him when you have the chance. To have peace and harmony in your family, it is better to let the one go who is causing the problems because of his sinfulness! There is a saying, Set the one who is wanting to live in their own little world free, and if they truly love you and hit the bottom, they will return as a better person and hopefully in Christ's love within his heart! Some have to learn the hard way, so just keep on praying and keep faith that God is doing a good work in Justin, for His purpose! God won't force him but He sure will help him and I also pray for God's angels to surround him and keep him from harm and guide the Prodigal son towards home and his family! May Jesus' joy be your and your family's strength to continue on in His plan for all of you! Amen! :angel: God Bless! Betty
 
Keeping you and Justin in prayers
