Good day everyone!! I'm really happy today, i just realized that my prayers were answered.
This about my dad, i just realized that for these past two weeks he was not drinking too much, most days he wasn't drinking... He drank last wednesday because we attended my cousins' wedding, but not much. I believe this is a miracle for my family, i do hope this change of my father will continue forever and ever... God really is so good all the time!!!

That was a great news. I pray that you and your dad will experience a real inside transformation so that all such vices will be just part of your past!Only Jesus Christ will be the answer to your quest for spiritual victory.
Good day!

Hi :) so glad to hear that your dada has been drinking less for the past 2 weeks and that's a good thing and a joy to be shared :) MAybe he himself knows drinking too much is harmful to the body and the nuisance he will make, thus he decide to stop drinking :) Good for him!!

I am glad to hear about your dad. Every person one way or the other would always have a weakness at times. Sometimes this weakness can be overcome by will and determination. However, there are times that our that our will and determination may not be enough and we would need additional help from friends from family and from the one above. I have experience life's ups and downs once in a while but the reason I manage it through is because of prayers and lots of love, care and support from my family and friends. I pray and wish you and your family will overcome the problem and that your dad will have a stronger will and determination to overcome his weakness once and for all, and live on with life as what it should be, knowing that you are always there to support him.

Thank you so much for the kind words you said my friend and thank you for sharing that here. I know that this will not be easy for him and i know this is nt yet over, there will be times wherein he'll be tempted to drink again but at least i've seen changes in his drinking routines. And really am very thankful for the prayers from friends here including you dear c",)

I'm very happy for you. Thank God for this development. This is a very important step for your father. Continue being supportive of him. Sometimes it's stress that drive people to binge drink.

It's great to hear about these kinds of stories. Of course we all want what is best for the people we love. Your dad is lucky to have someone like you who just wants the best for him.
God is great!

I'm happy for you, it's a start, and I hope it continues. My Father also drank a great deal. This was very hard on our family. Take care
