Loneliness and estranged adult children.

by Tamra ()

2 out of my 3 adult children are estranged from me. All I ever wanted was to be a wife a mother. I understand that being a mother in your adult children’s life does not mean parenting any more. But, it does mean that my life as mother continues through our life. I didn’t parent them, but I allowed my feelings and emotions to my divorce known to them. I was always careful not to undermine anyone including their father. I always spoke highly of him in front of my children as I wanted them to have healthy relationships with both parents. What I did do was using them as “confidants” as I suffered and still am suffering from my loneliness and even had crying breakdowns regarding my loneliness in front of them. I need prayers to restore my relationship with my children. My son has not invited me to his wedding. I need prayers for the Lord to send peace to my heart. Bring me out of loneliness and help me to navigate my next season of life. I don’t want to spend holidays alone or die alone.
