Nana-Serwaah

I have a friend named Philip. He and I have known each other since the 9th grade. In everything, he was there for me and he loved and supported me. I was there for him like he was for me. We always laughed with each other, we prayed. He hugged me when I cried, and he took the time to encourage me and understand how I felt. Just last year he and I were involved in some drama. It was a pretty bad situation and it leads to the entire school finding out. I became the scapegoat and everyone, including him, turned his back on me. On his birthday (October 23rd), I then decided for the third time to gather the courage to speak to him and say happy birthday but also tell him how I felt. He apologized for all of the pain he caused me. It has led to him opening up to me and we are trying to rekindle our friendship. He is taking a long time to respond to my texts and what not..but it is because of what he is putting himself through. He is a Christian, but he is bound by some spirit or something. He has been having sex with anyone he can manipulate and pursue. When he is around me, he is pure and considerate. He had sex with 3 people, cheated on his current ex-girlfriend and now dates on of his friends' ex-girlfriend. He had sex with her as well and plans to bring her to our school dance. I tried talking to Philip about his actions but he will not listen. I believe there is something troubling him and instead of people taking time to pray for him they are slandering him. Social media is not making it any better. So I took it upon myself to fast and pray entirely about and for him. I would like to, in the future, be with Philip. Maybe even to get married. I believe God takes control when he is in your relationship. God means so much to me and my life and I feel Philip does not have God entirely in his life. We are now seniors in high school, and if this continues he may ruin his life, hurt others, and hurt himself. It hurts me as to what's going on. Join me in prayer for a miracle.
