The day my heart broke
On October 23rd of this year, my world fell apart. I had just spent two hours showing my child how a person in their life was trying to manipulate them and make them live their life according to that person's control. My child is/was blinded and did not see it. My child chose to go down a path that is uncharacteristic of them. I know that I cannot live their life for them, but I just wanted to lock them up until they saw what I was seeing. That child turned their back on family and friends in order for a season to be "happy". I have questioned myself everyday since, what could I have done differently in raising my child? Did I not love them enough? Did I not show them the love of God enough? What did I do to make this child this way? I know that my child has free will to make their choices, but how did I influence those choices? Was I such a bad mother that they sought out this person to fill a void? Only God knows what is going on and how He is going to use it for His good. I have to trust that, but my mother's heart still hurts.
