That is sooo sad Ohio!!!
My .05 worth is this: Many of the troubles the young people are experiencing in the LC are no different than the children from Christian parents outside the LC.
One observation I have made is
parents don't bless their children!!!!
Growing up, my mother & father
blessed each of us kids every night before going to bed. It may have been a ritual, but nonetheless, a blessing. I have 2 brothers and though my brothers are not walking with the LORD..don't KNOW Him, we all have God's protection over us. We've all been through rough times but I see God's hand over each and everyone of us.
We also don't bless each other! We NEED to! If we can't find it in our hearts to 'love' one another especially those who have hurt us deeply, then the least we can do is ask the LORD to bless them. It goes against our natural grain but that is the experience of being crucified with Christ...dying to self.
To GOD be the GLORY!
