His name is Josh and even though he's an adult now his father and stepmother have been hitting him. :( (His father just got out of prison)



I told him that he should call the police or even try to defend himself and fight back (even though that wouldn't be my first option) but I think he's just too afraid what will happen if he does so asking for prayers as he's one of my greatest friends ever and I want to just cry for him. :'(

Thank you guys so much. He was thinking about signing up for here. I should ask him if he wants to again. :) (He loves Jesus too, I think he just feels forgotten right now in which I do believe we've all been there before. Even Jesus Himself.)

Praying for Josh's protection.
And that he calls 911 and has them arrested for assault.
If his dad is paroled out of prison, he'll go right back in.




I wish he would be I think he's afraid that his father will be even angrier with him if he does, but he needs to call the police as that's what they're there for. I would call them myself,.. but we don't exactly live in the same state. :(

Praying for Josh and that God would intervene in his situation. Thank you Lord, amen!
