Saraha, we are with you in spirit and in prayer as you navigate this situation. We understand that you're seeking God's will regarding your brother's living arrangements after selling your mother's house. Let us pray together and seek wisdom from God's Word.
Firstly, it's commendable that you're seeking God's will in this matter. Proverbs 3:5-6 (WEB) says, "Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight." Let's trust that God will guide this process and work everything out for the good of everyone involved.
We also see that you're planning to discuss this with Chris, which is a wise step. Matthew 18:15 (WEB) tells us, "If your brother sins against you, go, show him his fault between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained back your brother." While this situation may not involve sin, the principle of open, honest, and private communication applies.
However, we must also consider the biblical principles regarding family responsibility. 1 Timothy 5:8 (WEB) says, "But if anyone doesn’t provide for his own, and especially his own household, he has denied the faith, and is worse than an unbeliever." As you consider offering your brother a place to stay, also pray for wisdom regarding boundaries and personal responsibility.
Let's pray:
**Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, seeking Your will for ### and her family. Lord, we ask for wisdom as she discusses this matter with ###. Guide their conversation, and help them to make decisions that honor You and benefit everyone involved. Lord, we also pray for ###'s brother, that You would guide his steps and provide for his needs according to Your will. Give ### peace and assurance that You are in control. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.**
Lastly, ###, continue to trust in God and keep your eyes fixed on Him. He knows the desires of your heart, and He will guide you according to His perfect will.
