The Worried Prayers of Bieber's Mom!

Justin Bieber's mother, Pattie Mallette, is praying for the Holy Spirit to make an impact on her son after reports surfaced that he got into a fight during Game 3 of the NBA Finals in Cleveland, Ohio.

While the 22-year-old singer's mother didn't publically comment about the altercation, she tweeted a prayer along with an image of her son from his new emoji line.

"Holy Spirit come and teach us each who you are. Amen," Mallette wrote.

When Bieber turned 22 on March 1, his mother posted a prayer asking that her son would encounter God.
"22 years ago I was 18yrs old, pregnant & scared. But God," she tweeted on Bieber's birthday. "Lord encounter @justinbieber for his bday! Give him all I couldn't, in Jesus name."

Mallette has witnessed her son go through some tough times since rising to fame at the age of 13. In 2014, Bieber had an especially tough year after he was accused of assaulting a limousine driver in Toronto, egging his neighbor's home, arrested for a DUI in Miami, and allegedly taking part in lewd acts like urinating in a prison cell.

In an interview with Billboard last year, Bieber revealed that his behavior has put a wedge in his relationship with his mother.
