My sister needs prayer

My sister needs some prayer. She's having a hard time finding a friend. Well..she has friends of course however...these friends are the kind that is bringing her down spirtually. And apparently she doesn't see that so when my parents say "no, you can't go spend the night at your friends house where there will be no parents and boys will be there", she yells and scream and accusses them of not letting her live her own life, blah blah blah.

She wasn't like this until she started hanging around these kids. One friend in particular has convinced her somehow that its cool to disobey your parents. Before Christmas, my sister and my mother got into a arguement that ended up getting physcial (example: my sister punched my mother in her face). Before that, she was talking to this friend who apparently (my mom eavesdropped), was teaching her how to make her parents mad and tick em off.

She has a history of making bad friends. One ended up ignoring her, one went psycho and we almost had to get a restraining order put on her in fear of my sister's life, and several other friends joined the aforementioned girls' hateful cause against my sister. Even in youth group, thier's kid who resent her and one, though not pyscho, is not helping the situation by trying to force her to leave YG.

Th eonly really good an dhonest friend she has is a girl at church who lives 15 minutes away in a slummy neighbordhood with a abusive, alchoholic dad who hates her. She has had good friends before but every single one of them has moved away, all her christian "friends" resent her, and all her non-christian friends are trying to make her stumble in her walk and it's frustrating for us.

Sorry for the long explaination but please pray. We don't want to resort to home-shooling cause she would hate us even more for that but we want her to mak some good, honest Christian friends that 1) wont move away 2) resent her and 3) pull her down. ::phew:: needed to get off my chest.

That's so unfortunate. I'll pray for your sister and that her friendships improve and that she gains some sincerely good, Christian friends in her life.

I will definately pray for your sister. She seems to be very lonely on the inside, and may try to cover her inner feelings. Don't forget that even good Christian friends sometimes to let people down. But then bring them back up ^_^

I'll have your sister in my prayers. I know how hard it is to see a family member rebel in this way. It's really terrible.

I will pray for her. It's really tough when you haven't got any good friends to encourage you when others try to bring you down. And I'm sure it must be heart-breaking for you and your family. Don't get discouraged, just keep doing the things that you know are best for her and pray that one day she'll understand and appreciate it!
