Debbie Cousins's Journal, 18 June 2019

So sorry Debbie. Yeah that sounds very stressful. I am hoping for the best 

The best didn't happen. The best would have been if she had been able to stand up to her parents' threats and do what she was 100% certain was the RIGHT THING to do. Instead, she fell sway to their threat - no where to live, no car, disconnected phone, no food, not welcome in their house - they even threatened to have her committed against her will! They have some SERIOUS power struggles in their lives and are obsessed with control. Exhausting just to THINK any more about it. I'm going to bed FINALLY! (7pm) No idea what tomorrow will hold. My friend is at peace at the moment, but things can change rapidly. I need stability! I need LESS stress. I need more peace. Mostly, I need SLEEP! 

Sorry to hear that. I am sure you did all you could 

D, you know where you can leave the stress and pick up peace instead. don't carry it by yourself. 

Debbie, it sounds like the situations with your house guest and your friend are out of your control. You're no good to anyone if you're depressed, anxious, and coping with unwise food choices. Please exercise discretion and take care of yourself first.  

Yes Debbie, self care is the best care 💛. Put oxygen on yourself first. The situation appears out of the control of anyone but her and her parents. The best you can do is pray for her and take care of yourself so that you can be there for her if she needs you. At times for peace of mind, it's best to accept that you can't change some situations or people sometimes and let them be 😔. Sending you positive vibes and warm wishes. 🙏💛🙏

Dear Debbie I will put both of you on my prayers, it can't be easy for you to see and hear someone you love going through this situation all you can do is talk to her, show her how much you love her and pray, absinthe Lord to intervin in this matter and ask Him to show you how to help her in the way that He want you to, in the meantime I will pray to Him to reveal Himself to you and show you His will 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏Dear Lord you know Debbie's heart and what she needs right now is to have the wisdom that only You can provide her, please guide her and show her how to help her friend in need, in Your precious name we pray Amen!🙌🙌🙌🙌🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 

I ment ask the Lord😊😊 

Gosh, that certainly is a lot of stress to handle. 

Good grief! Prayed and praying for you both. 

I am sorry for your distress, and your friend's situation. You are right in praying for wisdom. Both you and the parents have to let her live her life and handle the benefits and/or consequences of her decisions. You owe love and support, no more nor no less. 

She's lucky to have your friendship! It sounds like she really needs you. 

I’m praying for you both—clarity, wisdom and peace of mind for you; faith, strength and comfort for your good friend. I don’t know what’s best for you/your friend, but I know God does, and He will not forsake either of you in this storm. I’m sending a hug your way, too... 🙏🏻💖
