Praise the Lord! He is moving! The address that he gave me for his grandmother was not good so I wandered around in the heat trying to get someone to answer the door or find someone outside. Just when I was thinking that I was going to give up a car came down the street. It pulled into a driveway and I started walking toward it. When the woman got out she asked if she could help me. I said “you sure can, I am looking for a Mrs. Jones who lives in this area”. She respond with “you just found her, I’m Mrs. Jones”. I thought “Praise the Lord” then introduced myself and told her that I was working with her grandson. She just so happened to have (I will call him Shawn) his mother on the phone. She immediately put me on speaker phone so that the mother could hear our conversation. She invited me in the house because it was so hot outside.
She wrapped up the conversation with the mother then she wanted me to tell her what was going on. As I started to share she burst into tears then left the room. She came back quickly with a notebook which turned out to be her prayer list. She told me that she was a Christian and that she wanted me to see her prayer list and that I was an answer to her prayers. She cried even harder as she pointed out the prayer of “letting the right people cross his path”. She was so full of joy and hope! I told her that I had to take a picture of her prayer list!
She shared with me about Shawn and how he had been so good in school and even how he had, had a good job with Duke Hospital. I asked her when the homosexuality had started with Shawn and she said that it began at Southern High School. She shared that there is a large group of homosexuals there and that he had hooked up with the wrong bunch. She said that he had never shown any gay behavior prior. This is proof that homosexuality is a demon spirit and what happened with Shawn was that the spirit jumped on him and he allowed it and welcomed it to live inside him. As you can see, one of her other prayers was for a renewing of Shawn’s mind.
Romans 12:2 Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God's will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.

I ended up spending around an hour with the grandmother and you would have thought that she won a lottery or something because she was so happy! She said that his parents would also be in total agreement to Shawn going and getting help at a solid Christian rehab. I told her of the one that I felt strongly that he should go to and she again started crying. She shared how the family wants the old Shawn back. She is so excited that there is hope. We need your prayers that we will be able to get him in this place. The biggest thing is that I will know without a doubt that he truly wants the help. If he is not all in we will not send him.
If Shawn is in then we will plan a place for the family to see him immediately upon his release from jail then we will put him on a bus for his rehab destination. They will have his clothes and belongings ready. Pray that all this comes together!
