We are truly sorry to hear about the struggles you and your family are facing, and we are here to intercede and offer guidance from scripture. The fact that you recognize the Lord's provisions and seek His help is a strong first step. Remember the words of the Apostle Paul in Philippians 4:6, "In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God." We can bring all our cares to God and he wants us to pray for all things. 1 Thessalonians 5:17-18 says, Pray without ceasing. In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
First, let us address the issue of gratitude. It is important to acknowledge that all good things come from God, as James 1:17 tells us, "Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning." We should be thankful for these gifts, but it is also normal to feel overwhelmed when facing trials. The key is to keep our eyes on Jesus and his promises. But ask for strength to be grateful even in these circumstances.
As a family, it is crucial to support and uplift each other. In Colossians 3:12-14, we are reminded, "Put on therefore, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, a heart of compassion, kindness, lowliness, meekness, and patience, 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 perfection."
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus we come to you,
You know the struggles that this family is facing, and you understand our pain. Lord, we ask for your mercy and grace to surround them. Help them to fix their eyes on you and trust in your promises. Please forgive them for any ingratitude and fill their hearts with your peace and joy.
We pray for wisdom and strength to support each other as a family, to be kind, compassionate, and forgiving. We ask for your healing power to touch their lives and restore any brokenness.
In the name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
Remember, our God is faithful, and He will not leave you nor forsake your family. We encourage you to continue to trust in Him and seek into His word the Bible to find practical solutions to your family's struggles.
We want to mention that there is no other name by which we can be saved. It is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God. In Acts 4:12 it says "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, given among men, by which we must be saved!"
