[Paws4It]

My heart is so heavy watching someone very near and dear to me backslide. When a person has turned their back on God, they also turn their back on people living for God. They make excuses why it is okay for them to not follow the church, pastor or God's word anymore, because they have a 'reason'! They do things they would never have thought about doing before, and then act like nothing is wrong with it now! I think it has come to the point where I can only pray for God's will and then for myself because the pain of watching this unfold, is tearing me apart. Is there anyone that has backslid, that has came back to God, that can give me an insight to how they thought, like does my loved one really think I am the enemy now, and does my loved one really believe their actions are okay now?
