[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 758191, member: 15032"] How are things going for you? I am reading a book - free on Amazon Prime - and it speaks about how WE try to fix things and God will let us if that is what we want even though we will fail because we do not have the capacity to fix everything (or anything for that matter), only he does. I have been working VERY HARD to let go and let my maker assist me with things that I cannot control. It is a good feeling. Sometimes I fall back but then I remind myself that I had made the decision to let God take care of everything with our son. It is working. Our son is in school full time and showing great responsibility and getting good grades. He has started walking several miles per day on his days off. He bought a backpack that holds a gallon of water and has a drink straw so he stays hydrated. He said he is going to stop vaping. He knows we don't like it and worry about his lungs. I'm not sure when he'll quit but he has cut down already. He wrote his last speech for speech class about exercise and how it helps mind and body. These are all things I was hoping for and I stopped nagging and it's happening. Our son was so bad with drugs we thought he had fried his brain. That was my biggest worry. But he is so smart it amazes us. Is getting almost all A's and he doesn't have to work that hard. If this blessing can happen to us, it can happen to anyone. [/QUOTE]
