Hey, Im new so hello. I am a 24 yr old worship leader musician been in the church and serving for a few years. I have a severe problem with my family and own life mostly because of financial troubles. The relationship me and my parents have is almost dangerous. Ill start off by saying that i am not perfect at all and it isn't all "there fault", My father is a very very overbearing person interfering and disrespectful we have always gotten into fights were it has turn physical but lately it's been happening more. He sees that im getting angry with his remarks but he does not back off he continues to provoke me to the point of rage I cannot control **he does not quit when i ask him to stop or leave. Im sacred because this rage i have makes me wanna do things i know is wrong and its getting to the point were it's dangerous and bad for me *very quickly* my mother doesn't really pay much attention to me and i lost almost all control when she said shut up to my face for no reason. I am living in there house i have a job and never had a felony or traffic ticket in my life , I am almost convinced my mother has conspiracy against me something strange. My father provokes me to the point of rage and i loose all control and get violent the only that stopped me from hiting him was pushing him out of my door. I know this was kinda long but i am in serious misery my parents bolth claim to be christian and my mother spews biblical stories and opinions which i just dont really pay attention to them because i do not trust her , yes i know i have an anger problem but why should they see me get uncomfortable hurt and mad and continue to harp on me? and why would God support there disgusting actions ? why wont God tell me why there able to do this and why they do it ? am i right for total despising there actions ?

god doesnt support their actions, and he doesnt support urs. when ur father yells at u and stuff, just ignore him (easier said than done i know). but after a while, he wont even try to flare up ur temper anymore. the devil is taring ur family apart. dont let him. i suggest that u emmerse urself in gods word and in prayer and repent for ur sins and ask god to take away ur fathers and ur anger issues. u might even have a spirit of anger that is afflicting ur family. i had two spirits cast out of me two weaks ago, one of fear and one of anxiey. so myself and my family and my church will be praying for you so i hope everything turn out ok. and dont get physical, if u have to just leave ur house cause getting physical just gives the devil the upper hand to do more damage. well, goodbye and god bless, may your prayers and all the prayers of everyone whos praying for you be answered swiftly.

I understand and agree and I get angry because I really feel that he should not do this and stop. I get so angry because, he has a way of getting me to explain whats hes doing wrong then just acts like he never heard me and acts like im totally crazy. Hes extremely talented at pushing buttons. I recall we were arguing he got me to the point of anger then he called me a "Christian F***" then i chased him out of my room. I had said something about that i feel my parents are against me. He claims to be Christian yet they do things like make me loose all control by calling me a "Christian F***" yet the claim to be "saved" almost like there belief is a cover. I have quite a few friends and rarely have problems with them. And i want to say Thank You for Evan reading this craziness I know you are busy, and i know what running a church is like I know your time is limited. Godspeed to you and your church. Mikey

oh you are mistaken my friend. i dont run a church, i just go to one. and i check this everyday for people who need advice and prayers. many people on here helped me through my hard times so i like to return the favor. my testimony is posted in the Prayer Answers and Miracles part of this forum, check it out, it may help. my testimony isnt over yet though, i still have a lot of problems but i just keep strong in faith cause the lord will deliver his people out of all of their troubles. read psalms 23,25,27,28, and 34, in those are a lot of gods promises to us and they will lift u up. if ur father is cussing like that, he is not saved. i slip sometimes, cause i have only been saved for a lil over 2 months, but i would never say the things ur father does. calling u that is blaspheming like crazy and if ur mom does the same thing, neither of them are truly saved. i will be praying for your parents and u though, that god may bless u guys and ur house. well god WILL answer my prayers and yours if u just keep the faith, stay free of sin, and keep praying. i hope he will answer them swiftly but he might not, but dont lose faith. i did lose faith and when i did was the same day the lord healed me so never give up. well, goodbye and godbless. and just remember, the lord gives us Love, Peace. and a Sound Mind!!!

Kevin is right, God does not support their actions or yours. Try to ignore your father, and I know that it is hard (my father drinks just about every day). Since I came to God, my father makes fun of my newfound faith, and tries to provoke me into an argument about God and religion. I know it hurts to watch your parents treat you like this, but you have to remember that God loves you no matter what. It is written in the word that even if you father and mother forsake you, he will take you up and put you on a rock. He will be there for you and protect you no matter what. He is always with you. Just keep a strong faith, and repent for your sins and pray and praise him ever chance you get. Do not get discouraged if he does not answer your prayers right away... there is a reason for your suffering. There's a great line from a movie that says "God does not grant you patience, he gives you the opportunity to be patient." Remember that, and every time you start to feel very angry and upset, talk to God. Ask him to come to your aid, and to take away your anger. I have a very bad temper, and often I am overcome with the feeling of being so angry I want to, often times, be VERY violent toward myself and others. In times like this, I ask God to come to my aid and take away the anger I feel. It may not work right away, but I assure you, if you keep at it for a little while, it will work. You have to have the faith that God will help you though..... that he will take care of you. I will be praying for you and your parents...... And don't forget, pray and praise him whenever you can. He loves you and is always watching over you.

Godbless,
Lindsey
