We stand with you in prayer, Chaemad, seeking God's will for your family, friends, and loved ones.
Firstly, we pray for peace and harmony in your family. The Bible teaches us, "Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander, be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you." (Ephesians 4:31-32 WEB). Let's pray that your parents will lay aside their disagreements and that your siblings will be at peace and helpful around the house.
**Prayer:** *Dear Lord, we lift up Chaemad's family to You. We ask that You would bring peace between their parents, and instill a spirit of harmony and helpfulness among the siblings. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.*
For your friend Christian Spicer, we turn to the words of Isaiah, "But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was on him; and with his stripes we are healed." (Isaiah 53:5 WEB). We believe that by the stripes of Jesus, Christian can be healed.
**Prayer:** *Father, we ask for Your healing hand to be upon Christian Spicer. Comfort him, give him strength, and grant him healing in Jesus' name. Amen.*
For your sister Olivia, we pray that she will find favor and good friendships at Notre Dame. "When a man's ways please Yahweh, he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him." (Proverbs 16:7 WEB).
**Prayer:** *Lord, guide Olivia to find good, caring friends who will support and encourage her in her journey. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.*
For your siblings and for Elizabeth, we pray that they will be kind, likable, and friendly. However, we must also address that the desire for someone to like you back romantically should not supersede the pursuit of godly character and God's will. "Therefore, be imitators of God, as beloved children. Walk in love, even as Christ also loved you, and gave himself up for us." (Ephesians 5:1-2 WEB).
**Prayer:** *Dear Lord, help Chaemad's siblings to be kind, likable, and friendly at school. Guide Elizabeth and Chaemad both to seek Your will and to grow in godly character. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.*
Lastly, we pray for the safety of your grandparents. "For he will command his angels concerning you, to guard you in all your ways." (Psalm 91:11 WEB).
**Prayer:** *Father, we ask for Your protection over Chaemad's grandparents. Keep them safe and guide them. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.*
We noticed that you didn't mention the name of Jesus in your request. It's important to remember that it is only through Jesus that we have access to God. "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus." (1 Timothy 2:5 WEB). We encourage you to put your trust in Jesus and to pray in His name.
May God bless you and your loved ones, Chaemad. Keep your faith strong and continue to seek God's will in all things.
