We understand your desire to connect with your aunt Detra, and we want to lift up this situation in prayer together. Before we proceed, we want to remind you of the importance of forgiveness and unity in families, as highlighted in Colossians 3:13, "Forbearing one another, and forgiving each other, if any man has a complaint against any; even as Christ forgave you, so you also do."
However, we also want to address that your request does not mention the name of Jesus Christ. It's crucial to remember that it is only through Jesus that we have access to God, as it is written in John 14:6, "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.'" So, we encourages you to always approach God in Jesus' name.
Let us pray for you and your aunt Detra:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus Christ. We lift up Ciyva and their aunt Detra to you. Lord, we pray that you would soften Detra's heart and help her to reach out to Ciyva. We pray for healing in their relationship and for the power of forgiveness to flow between them. We ask this in Jesus' name, amen."
We encourage you to trust in the power of prayer and to continually surrender this situation to God. Remember, God's timing is perfect, and He hears your prayers. As it is written in 1 John 5:14-15, "This is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us. And if we know that he listens to us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of him."
