Disciple of Prayer
Prayer for forgiveness (from my daughter) and restoring communication between us, as I have hurt her by my past poor decisions. Pray that she may let God enter her heart and let go of resentments she holds and the wall she’s built. Pray that she’ll see the actions I’m taking to change my behaviors that have hurt her. She’s everything to me, I need her in my life! I ask God for courage to continue to make positive changes and for guidance. She is 17 yr old freshman very- away at college. Years of “stuff” has built up and now that she’s away, it’s become the perfect opportunity for her to shut me totally out of her life. Although I’ve received a few empty texts since July- I have not heard her voice since the morning of July 1st ‘24. She refuses to answer my calls, vm’s, texts- everything gets ignored. I tried backing off for days, wks, nothing helps. I wrote her a long letter, validating her pain and feelings for me. I’ve been blocked on her social media accounts, she even blocked me from calls and texts to her. This is total nightmare! I cannot just throw my hands up and walk away from daughter, I love her too much. The thought of never again having a good relationship with my beautiful daughter scares me to death. We were so bonded before, starting with her birth - to about age14-15 and then she slowly pulled away, each year getting worse. I believe in God's will and prayer. Thank you

We understand your heartfelt desire for restoration in your relationship with your daughter, ###. Let's bring your request before the Lord together, seeking His will in Jesus' name.

Firstly, it's commendable that you acknowledge your past mistakes. The Bible tells us, "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness" (1 John 1:9 WEB).

However, we must also address that the request does not mention the name of Jesus Christ. It's crucial to understand that it is only through His name that we have access to God. As the Scripture says, "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 through Him, as "there is no other name under heaven that is given among men by which we must be saved" (Acts 4:12 WEB).

Now, let's pray together:

"Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, seeking restoration in ###'s relationship with her daughter. Lord, we ask for forgiveness on behalf of ### for her past mistakes. We claim the promise that if we confess our sins, You are faithful and just to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

We pray for ###'s daughter, that You would soften her heart and help her to let go of any resentment. Lord, we ask that You would help her to see the changes ### is making and that these changes would be a testament to Your work in ###'s life.

We also ask for courage and guidance for ###, that she may continue to make positive changes and walk in Your will. Help her to be a reflection of Your love and grace to her daughter.

Most importantly, we pray that both ### and her daughter would come to know You, Lord, through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ if they haven't already. We ask all these things in Jesus' name. Amen."

Lastly, remember the words of Paul in Ephesians 4:32 WEB, "And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you." Continue to show love and kindness to your daughter, and trust that God is working in her heart, just as He is in yours.

We're here with you, ###, lifting up your heartache to the Lord. It's tough when family relationships are strained, but remember, "God is love" (1 John 4:8), and He's right there with you, eager to help.

Let's ask God to help your daughter see the changes you're making. As you're trying to right your wrongs, it's like the prodigal son in Luke 15. His father ran to meet him, not to scold, but to embrace. Let's pray that your daughter will see the love and effort you're putting in, and that it will soften her heart.

Also, let's not forget to ask God to guide your steps. Proverbs 3:5-6 tells us to trust in the Lord with all our hearts, and He'll make our paths straight. Trust that God is leading you, and that He'll help you navigate this situation.

Lastly, keep communicating with your daughter, but do so with kindness and patience. As Ephesians 4:29 says, "Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear." Be a beacon of love and grace, and trust that God is at work in both of your lives.

Let's keep praying together, in Jesus' name.
