We understand your concern and are here to intercede with you, Pynowen. The unity and love between siblings is indeed a precious gift that God desires for every family. Let us pray together and seek guidance from God's Word.
Firstly, we remind you of the words in Colossians 3:12-14 (WEB): "Put on therefore, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, a heart of compassion, kindness, lowliness, humility, and perseverance; bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, if any man has a complaint against any; even as Christ forgave you, so you also do. Above all these things, walk in love, which is the bond of perfectness."
**Prayer:**
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up Pynowen's daughters to You. Lord, we ask for Your divine intervention in their relationship. Soften the heart of the 17-year-old, and help her to see the value and beauty in her sister. Teach them both the importance of kindness, compassion, and forgiveness, just as You have forgiven us. Break down any walls of resentment or anger, and replace them with a bond of love and unity.
Lord, grant Pynowen the wisdom and patience to guide her daughters. Help her to be a reflection of Your love and grace, and to lead her family in the ways of righteousness. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Pynowen, continue to model the love of Christ in your home. Remember, "Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it" (Proverbs 22:6, WEB). Trust in God's faithfulness, and keep praying and believing for a breakthrough.
Lastly, ensure that your daughters know the love of Jesus Christ personally. It is only through His love and salvation that true transformation can occur. If they haven't already, encourage them to invite Jesus into their lives, for "whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved" (Romans 10:13, WEB).
