We understand that you're concerned about K and the emotional pain she's experiencing. Let's bring this situation before the Lord in prayer and seek His guidance according to His Word.
Firstly, we want to reminds you that God is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18 WEB). He is the ultimate source of comfort and healing. It's crucial that K knows she can pour out her heart to the Lord, for He hears and cares for her.
However, we noticed that your prayer request did not mention the name of Jesus Christ. It's important to remember that it is only through Jesus that we have access to God, as it is written: "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" (1 Timothy 2:5 WEB). Let's ensure we approach God in Jesus' name, as He taught us (John 14:13-14 WEB).
In regards to K's situation, it's concerning that she feels ignored and may be turning to self-medication to cope. We must encourage her to turn to God in her pain, rather than seeking relief in unhealthy ways. Galatians 5:19-21 WEB lists the works of the flesh, which include drunkenness and things like it, warning that those who practice such things won't inherit the Kingdom of God. Instead, we should encourage her to allow the Holy Spirit to produce His fruit in her life, such as love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23 WEB).
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up K to You. Lord, You know the pain and hurt she's been carrying. Please be her comfort and strength in this time. Help her to cast all her burdens upon You, for You care for her (1 Peter 5:7 WEB).
We also pray for L, that they would be more understanding and patient with K, providing a safe space for her to express her feelings. Help them to show love and kindness, as You have loved us (John 13:34 WEB).
Lord, we ask that You would help K to turn away from any form of self-medication and turn to You instead. Fill her with Your peace and joy, and help her to walk in the Spirit, not gratifying the desires of the flesh (Galatians 5:16 WEB).
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Please continue to encourage K to seek the Lord and remind her of God's unfailing love for her. If you have any further concerns or need more guidance, feel free to share with us. We're here to support you in prayer and truth according to God's Word.
