Good news, I am back! I hope that you’ve come here to read my previous posts from time to time. I feel so inspired to write again. In the last month and a half, I just enjoyed taking my break from blogging because I really needed it. By the way, I am writing about 7 Bible Verses to stop lying. You have no idea what I’ve gone through in the past month.
A Short Story…
In the past month, my US Marine son’s girlfriend happened to be 17 years old. He dated her for almost one year and 4 months. Consequently, they have a 7 month-old baby girl. It means that I am a grandmother. Needless to mention that, they are not married. I am certain that God would want both to get married before His eyes. However, her parents are Catholics. My family and I are Christians. It sounds a bit awkward, right?
Last August 2019, I caught a few of my positive comments about my granddaughter on my son’s girlfriend’s photos that were deleted on social media. It looked like that she didn’t want me to say “Oh, beautiful” or “Lovely…” like something very positive. How strange! I told my son my share of concerns about his girlfriend. He told me that I lied. I was like — “What?!” I was shocked that she told him I was a liar. I am my Marine son’s mother! He and I always used to be very close and tell each other everything in the truth … but, now he believed her instead of me.
Confused. Betrayed. Disgusted.
Oh, well… I got it. My son is 20 years old and a Christian. His girlfriend is very young and she is Catholic. Normally, she is a teen Mom. She tells a different story, she keeps lying to my Marine son about me and my husband; we know that we had nothing wrong. In fact, we are innocent. We both would not understand why he turned against us for his girlfriend. Yes, it was very devastating and heartbreaking. Our precious Lord knows everything. I feel that He is sad to see this happen. Our Lord told me that I had nothing to do with this, yet He knows our humble hearts and great sufferings since my estranged son walked out on us for her. He is really doing this for HER.
Consequently, my husband and I decided to let him go and I gave the Lord my son so He could take care of him and his issues. I do not want to blame anyone but my eyes are 100% true witness clearly that proves she is lying to my son. Meanwhile, I believe that I am not allowed to judge. Only God can judge. I am sure that He is working on this situation. I trust Him whatever He can do. I have no idea when this situation may be solved later. It’s all on God.
One Question…
Lying is a serious obstacle for many people, including Christians. In the Bible, “Thou shall not lie” is one of the ten commandments, yet Christians have the same problem with this commandment. Is that okay to lie to people or even our Lord? That’s why I am sharing here about 7 Bible Verses to stop lying.

I’m sorry for your situation but I think you are handling it the right way. Has anything changed?
I just stumbled on your blog while looking up some proverbs. It’s very nice 🙂
Oh and Catholics are Christians, though of course a different sort. That’s what the whole reformation was about although I’m sure you know that. Part of my family are Catholic and I don’t understand why they believe they have to give confession to a priest, and that only the Pope can speak to God. It’s nonsense.
Protestants come in lots of denominations too but at least they all agree in direct salvation through the acceptance of Jesus Christ. Have a great day.
