My Middle Daughter

Post by Hugo Drax »

Well, she lost her childhood faith a couple of years ago. I always knew the seeds were still there because she's a good and moral kid, but it's tough to watch a teenager try to make it on her own. Still, you can't force faith and a lot of a parent's role is hopeful silence.

Well, she wandered out into my smoking shed tonight and started asking questions. And she is clearly pondering the answers! Maybe she's like me and has to reason her way to recognizing that the voice is hearing is the living Christ's.

Pray for Rosie's soul, please. This sort of thing can miraculously happen overnight but usually takes patience and time.

Pray, too, that my sinful nature doesn't cause her to stop searching and that the Holy Ghost talks through my mouth, please. Old Paulie can only screw this up on his own.

Thank you for the continued prayers. Health problems persist, but she is learning to cope better. Her mental well being has greatly improved.
