Una oración por mi hija que es adicta

Si alguien está en peligro ahora mismo

¿Conoces a alguien en esta misma hora? Envíale esta página

Hay miedos que tienes por una hija que no le dices a nadie, y la adicción los arrastra todos a la luz. Dónde está. Con quién está. Está a salvo. Está viva.

Probablemente te han dicho que la sueltes. Nadie que dice eso lo ha hecho. Lo que puedes hacer es dejar de cargar las partes que nunca fueron tuyas — sus decisiones, sus consecuencias, su recuperación — y seguir cargando la parte que siempre será tuya: tu amor por ella.

Ora esto mal. Ora llorando. Dios ha escuchado cosas mucho peores de gente mucho mejor que tú o que yo.

Tres cosas que hacer en la próxima hora

  1. 1
    Si está en peligro
    Si crees que tomó demasiado, o está con alguien que podría lastimarla, llama a emergencias o a una línea de crisis. No esperes a estar seguro.
  2. 2
    Escríbelo en vez de enviarlo
    El mensaje largo que quieres enviar a medianoche — escríbelo en un cuaderno. Léelo en la mañana. Envía la versión que es amor, no miedo.
  3. 3
    Dile a alguien que no la juzgará
    La proteges quedándote en silencio, y el silencio te está ahogando a ti. Busca a una persona o un grupo donde puedas decir su nombre con honestidad.

Una oración para ahora mismo

Señor, tomaría su lugar si me lo permitieras. Tú sabes que lo haría.

No lo harás. Así que te pido que hagas lo que yo no puedo — estar con ella donde esté esta noche, en cualquier cuarto, en cualquier estado.

Protégela de las personas que la ven como algo para usar. Despierta algo en ella que recuerde quién es.

Y ayúdame a amarla mañana sin intentar controlarla, porque eso nunca ha funcionado.

Amén.

"Cuando pases por las aguas, yo estaré contigo; y si por los ríos, no te anegarán." — Isaías 43:2
