I really need help, i just cant take it anymore. What can you do about this?
For about 4 years i've been praying & hoping that a problem that seems to run in the family would not affect my younger cousin (8 years old) because i saw signs of it. The problem hurts me so much that i dont even want to mention what it is--i hope anyone who reads understands. I'm always looking for it in him---like signs that he's interested ect., and i try extra hard to protect him from images and mentionings of it on t.v., the radio ect.
I pray that it doesnt happen, and i ask that God take care of it and guide my little cousin, and i try to just have faith that He will, and forget about it. But im so scared, because i've seen what it does to other people and lots of people in my family, that i pray about it all the time, and im still trying to protect him (and i dont think you should NOT protect children from bad things, when they are young anyway, so i know its not completly trying to keep him away from something that may naturally take course) and i always hope it doesnt happen, not a day goes by that i dont think about it at least 2x, but he such an open spirit, and he often jokes about it and asks questions about it, and lots of times is interested in stuff that has images and talks about this problem in it.
And then i always have dreams that it happens, but this morning was the worst, in my dream i was crying, and i woke up this morning crying which has never happaned, but i was/am just so sad about it. And in my dreams, its always like i cant grab him, or i cant get the point across to him, or i cant talk, or hes not listening.....its just horrible.
So this is what im asking, and what i need help with.
Is a mother/sister (or any close sibling, because i consider and feel more than a cousin) praying for their/a child enough to keep a sin away from them that seems to be in the family?
If not, what else can you do?
Should i be able to pray one time, and completly give it all to God, or should i pray once about it daily?
How can i really just give it all to God and forget about it, when im still trying to keep it out of the house and protect the child from it?
Why are these dreams coming to me all of the time, how can they be stopped?
Thanks in advance yall, i need all the advice anyone wants to give. I really love this child like my own, so i hope no-one thinks this sounds crazy, its not something that i think about all day long like an obseesed person, just once or twice a day, and i just watch out for this and anything with him, but when i have dreams about it, it just sits heavy on my heart for a while and it just made me want to bring it all out.
