A --SLIVER --of --HOPE
when your Feeling, at the END of your ROPE
having HOPE
that your child, adult son, chooses to be free from, prescription pain killers, alcohol, and DOPE

A --SLIVER-- of --HOPE
when your son, just told you dad   I---LOVE---YOU,    and that he is encouraging me to READ, the BIBLE,  and the.  WORD-- of --GOD,   to --better --FAITHFULLY---COPE

So i told him, that i willl take.  HIS--GOOD  ---ADVICE,-- and-- LISTEN-- to ---HIM
and to work harder to turn my life, living, and love---- over---- to ----GOD,--- our -----creator--- and ----his ----love, ----faith ----and ----direction, ----WIN
i TOLD,  him, to PRAY,  as well, and be appreciative and thankful for every blessing on ---HAND
and to be faithful, loving and true to HIMSELF, and with GODS, LOVE, in his HEART-- to ---courageously--HUMBLY--- STAND

I told him, that you, are the company that you chose to keep, and to be around others who can INFLUENCE-- you --faithfully,---spiritually, ---lovingly
and -to -be -humble -kind, -loving, -with -humility-, honest, -and-- FREE

So a SLIVER-- of --HOPE--seems to be taking --HOLD
for my troubled son, now adrift and --THIRTY-- ONE--- YEARS---OLD
my PRAYER,, with HIM, that just now we did ---SHARE
is to show his brother who now has taken him in, that he is --grateful, --appreciative,-- and-- very --thankful,-- and --his --favor, --and --respect-- come --to --win,-- and --to --help --the --best-- that --HE --can --around --the --house --and-- show --him --truthfully --that --you---are--HUMBLE--and--YOU--CARE

So --DAY-- by --DAY
I--PRAY, --he does not go again, the same direction, and hang out with the wrong, --TROUBLED--BAD-- people, --choosing the dangerous path and direction, and the ----WRONG-- WAY
a -SLIVER--- of ---HOPE--, -has -been--- REVEALED
as --his --true --feelings --just --now --, he --seems --real,-- and --nothing --seems --to --be --CONSEALED

A sliver of ---HOPE
i --PRAY --will, lead to acceptance and sobriety, free from any and all, things --to --prayerfully, --and --faithfully,-- spiritually --and --GODLy, --life-savingly, --rightly, --lovingly, --COPE

Many times one will not change, until rock bottom they --FALL-- so --dark --doomed --and ---DEEP
my PRAYER, -- and --every --FATHERS-- PRAYER--, is --that --GOD,-- will --guide-- our-- children, --no --matter --how --old --they --are, --and --lovingly --hold --them, --and --safely-- KEEP
