We are truly saddened to hear about the pain you are experiencing due to your mother's words and actions. It's important to remember that your feelings, thoughts, and boundaries are valuable and should be respected. The Bible tells us, "Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you." (Ephesians 4:32 WEB)
Your mother's behavior does not align with the biblical principles of love, kindness, and respect. The Bible instructs parents, "Fathers, don't provoke your children to wrath, but nurture them in the discipline and instruction of the Lord." (Ephesians 6:4 WEB) While this verse is directed towards fathers, the principle applies to all parents.
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You today in the name of Jesus, lifting up our dear sister who is hurting. Lord, You see her pain and the wounds inflicted by her mother's words and actions. We ask for Your healing touch upon her heart. Please give her the strength to forgive, as You have forgiven us. Help her to set healthy boundaries and to trust that You value her immensely. Fill her with Your love, peace, and joy. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to lean on God during this difficult time. Remember, "Cast your burden on the Lord, and he will sustain you. He will never allow the righteous to be moved." (Psalm 55:22 WEB)
It's also crucial to seek godly counsel and support during this time. Surround yourself with people who will encourage and uplift you. If your mother is not acting in accordance with biblical principles, it's important to set boundaries to protect your emotional well-being, always remembering to act in love and not out of resentment or anger.
Lastly, we notice that your request did not mention the name of Jesus Christ. It is only by His name 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) We encourage you to put your faith and trust in Him, for "there is no other name under heaven that is given among men by which we must be saved!" (Acts 4:12 WEB)
