I totally understand your pain. My mother I believe hated me, can u imagine? How can you hate a 5 month old baby, simply because she did not die in a horrific car accident but her much loved 2cyr old sister did? This has always been a struggle for me. She did not raise me, I tried to love her really I did. I kept giving her one more chance, but she always hurt me. She died last February 7th. I wasn’t there nor did I shed a tear, maybe she is happy now.

My mother's death was very sad for me. Seems that I was too busy working to see her before she died. I thought I had more time than I did. I did attend her funeral though. This was in 2019. What you went through was horrific. Hopefully, by the grace of God, your pain will gradually lessen to a dull ache.
 
I think mothers are just as Jesus said, those that listen to the word of God and do it. Not necessarily the one who gave birth to you.

So I have a few mothers in my life. They mother me, instead of smothering me.

I liked the last sentence especially. It's almost profound.

My mother was an outspoken professing Christian, but the fruit really wasn't there. I tried to share the truth with her many times, but I honestly don't think that it ever penetrated, but that it was willfully rejected instead. I did attend her funeral when she died a few years back, but I've honestly questioned/doubted if she made it into God's kingdom since she died.

I had a dream about her after she died. In my dream, I was in my home and enjoying some time with my three children. Suddenly, I looked away from them, and I saw my mother standing there. I said to my children, "Look, it's grandma", and then I walked over towards her.

As I got closer to her, I noticed that she was dressed all in black, and that her face was completely white. It almost looked as if her lips had been stitched together. She didn't say a word to me, but I noticed that she was looking down at something. As I followed her gaze, I saw that she was looking at my Bible that was lying on an end table. My dream ended then, and I felt as if the Lord was showing me two things:

1. That my mother probably didn't make it into his kingdom.
2. That she was warning me to read and obey the Bible lest I would up with her eternal destiny.

I hope that I'm wrong about her eternal destiny, but, again, the fruit wasn't really there in her life. That's a hard thing for someone to say about their own mother, but I'm just making my assessment based upon the word of God and what I witnessed of her during her lifetime.

Wherever she presently is, this isn't a game.

Our eternal destinies are at stake, and God is not mocked.

We'll all ultimately reap what we've sown.

"The sound of your footsteps, telling me that you're near. Your soft, gentle motion babe, brings out a need in me that no one can hear.."
From "Midnight Confessions" by Grass Roots

A forum for the one secret confession that you do not want revealed
but are brave enough to admit for all to see.

My name is tourist and I have a serious nicotine addiction. I once told God that I wanted quit smoking. He did not answer my prayer as He knew that I was lying to him. Perhaps when I am serious he will deliver me from this self-imposed affliction, and other things as well that do not belong in my life.

Praying for God to help you. I am not sure how some just one day quit an addiction like smoking. But I do know God can help you. I never really smoked. But used to drink alot. For me it was a slow transition and slowing down. Finding peace in God instead of a beer. Each day I give it to him. Not easy wat to say to someone else struggling with an addiction. Everyone is different. But I do understand.
