Is God mad at me, or is it just the devil playing with me? Because my son who just went to an altar to have his sins forgiven by the Lord and he told me about it on Thursday night, while also telling me he was baptized in the burial and resurrection of Jesus spirit, and now tonight the mother calls my wife to tell us that our grandson was admitted to the hospital again, and this time he was having some kind of lung problem where he wasn't breathing right and he was turning blue and purple! I talked to my son about him for I trust his words over the mothers, and my grandson is in ICU(Intensive Care Unit) and he said the doctors were stablizing him, and tomorrow he will be moved from ICU, but they are going to do some extensive tests on him.

I somehow think that the mother is behind my grandson being sick and I forgot to mention that last week my grandson was in the hospital for 5 days because he had pneumonia, and this last Wednesday my son said the checkup he had indicated he was doing just fine! Now, a couple days later, he is in the hospital again! For those who don't understand, Click Here for my concerns!

[Grassontop]

I'm feeling very angry at this mother, and I also feel God is mad at me and I also feel that my granson might die at the expense of this mother trying to hang on to my son and my son don't want her in his life anymore, but I'm really worried about all this! I'm being shaken up and what is really concerning me more is that my grandson is in Ruby Memorial Hospital in Morgantown, WV and there are many foreign doctors there and my son could be in danger of anthrax attacks as well as my grandson, but then maybe I'm to overly concerned!

I do praise God for my son being baptized and asking for forgiveness for his sins and I do rejoice in that for I have prayed for my son to be saved by the Lord and it finally has happened!

I will take all prayers and suggestions to heart, for I feel really mad at my grandsons mother!

Now is not the time to play blame games, my friend. People get lung problems without anyone being to blame for it.

Prayers sent friend.

Hey GoT: The more people you love -- the more people in your circle -- the more chances you will have for pain as well as good things. What does G-d have against you? Nuthin. The fact you've had a series of setbacks vs. your loved ones merely means you have an unusually large number of loved ones and the odds can catch up.

Prayers for ya' and yours, bro!

[Joe 6-pack]

Do not assume GOD is angry with you. None of us is in a position to presume to know his ways. Assuming GOD is angry at you will lead to bitterness and your blaming of HIM for what befalls you. Blaming HIM can lead to your rejection of him, and that is the last thing you need.

Read Job. Know that evil can befall the holiest of men. It is not an incursion of HIS anger, nor an expression of HIS wrath. GOD may test us, but never with more than we can handle. HE also gives the free will to choose how, and whether or not, we will handle it!

My prayers are with you and your family.

[DeSoto]

Prayers on the way for your grandson and you.

Hang in there, God never gives us more than we can handle, even though is seems that way at times. Trust in Him. He is there for you.

[oldvike]

Prayer on its way.

Stop this. You want these things, and they're not bad things. But you're pushing hard. Trust in the Lord. He will not punish you. Just trust in him. Let Him work. His will be done, not yours.

Now that I've said it: if you're really concerned that the mother is doing these things, you must call Child Potective Services. But if they've already checked, and it's all straight, then you should look to yourself.

I pray for you and for your grandson. The Lord's peace and comfort be with you both.

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

More prayers for that grandson of yours! And for your other grandchild and for your son's wife, etall. And for you!

Find your favorite quiet place and read Bible out loud for one hour. Or more.

Prayer sent heavenward.

God hears, and answers - but at times we don't understand those answers too well. He sees into the future and has good purpose for everything, while too often we can only see or feel pain. Bless you and yours.

The Lord gives you the grace you need to handle these situations when you need it, not before. He has shown you His mercy through your son coming to Him, and in the preservation of your grandson so far,in spite of the obstacles caused by the boy's mother. As the Word says,"Trust in the Lord with all of your heart, and lean not on your own understanding."

Take a moment to reflect om His goodness in getting you this far. Now, thank Him for these circumstances and ask Him to use you to do His will in the midst of them.

God bless you and Mrs. GOT, and your little grandson, and his dad---and mom.

We never wanted the mother to be taken away from her baby, but she has two other children which her Aunt won't let this mother be left alone with them for any reasons, so, there is a big problem!

If this is the case, maybe you need to contact this Aunt ant communicate your concerns to her. If the mother has a Munchausen's problem, she is ill and needs treatment, not something to blame. But I do see your problem now... very tough to deal with since about the only way to protect the kid if you cannot keep it away from 'unsupervised mom' would be to have the mom declared incompetant or to prove she is doing something deliberately, and the aunt's testimony might be useful in getting that done. In the meanwhile, such people crave attention for themselves and they see their children's illnesses as a route towards that end. Perhaps if some other way of getting attention could be arranged so she won't have the incentive to do it to the kid... if she is doing it.

[maranatha]

Prayers for all of your family and praise His Holy name for the miracle of your son being born again. Praise Him, cast your cares on Him when you start to worry, ask Him to take it all over that it's bigger than you. Reject thoughts that God is mad at you, Satan is a deceiver. Ask for forgiveness of any sins you have committed and turn from them, and rest in the assurance you are forgiven. Sing songs of praise as you pray for each member of your family.

[MissAmericanPie]

Of course I will pray for you, but if you are really convinced that this mother is doing something to the child, tell the doctor or the police, they will put a camera in the childs room, to record what goes on. Some women have something called Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy, a mental disorder in which a woman will put her child at risk for the attention and sympathy that it brings her.

I have no idea if this is the situation, but if this describes what you are feeling then do not keep it to yourself, confide in someone, the Doctor, the police, all of them.

Joining the circle of prayer for your grandson and your family ... may the Lord's hand of protection and health rest on all of you ...

[mdittmar]

He nurses them when they are sick,and soothes their pains and worries. Psalm 41:3,

Let Him have all your worries and cares,for He is always thinking about you and watching everything that concerns you.
1 Peter 5:7

[InvisibleChurch]

Rather than being angry at your grandson's mother, pray for her salvation. Nothing is gained by being angry with her. Anger only moves us away from Him which then can feel like He is against us. God never changes and has loved you as much for every moment of your life. He does the same for your wife, your grandson, your son (praise The Lord for his salvation !!!) and for your grandson's mother. A pastor in Wilmington, NC once said, "How can I hate someone for whom Christ also died?"

prayers prayers for ever and ever. Amen

[pubmom]

I agree with Joe 6-Pack, do not imagine that God is angry with you, it does lead to bitterness. Turn toward him in prayer, and he promises he will turn toward you.

Do not give in to a spirit of fear, God has not given you a spirit of fear, but one of power, and of love, and of peace and a sound mind.

I will pray for you to have peace, and for the truth to be revealed in its entirety concerning your grandson's condition. I will pray for your son, as to what he should do concerning the child's mother, and pray that he will follow the Lord's instructions in what he should do.
God bless.

[patriot31u]

I agree with this statement. Same advice I would give. My prayers are with you and your family.
