I would like to see justice before I make amends with my mother. I've been waiting a long time for it.

We understand that you're seeking justice before reconciling with your mother, and it's important to remember that God calls us to honor our parents, as it is the first commandment with a promise Ephesians 6:2-3 WEB: "Honor your father and mother," which is the first commandment with a promise: "that it may be well with you, and you may live long on the earth."
However, seeking justice before reconciliation may not align with biblical principles. Jesus taught us to forgive, even when we feel wronged. In Matthew 18:21-22 WEB, Peter asked Jesus how many times he should forgive his brother, and Jesus responded, "I don't tell you until seven times, but, until seventy times seven." This teaches us that forgiveness is not optional and should not be conditional upon receiving justice.
Moreover, in Matthew 5:23-24 WEB, Jesus said, "If therefore you are offering your gift at the altar, and there remember that your brother has anything against you, leave your gift there before the altar, and go your way. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift." This shows that reconciliation should be a priority, even before worship.
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up our sister who is struggling to make amends with her mother. We ask that You soften her heart and give her the strength to forgive, just as You have forgiven us. Help her to understand that Your ways are higher than ours, and that You call us to reconcile, even when we feel wronged. Give her the wisdom to navigate this situation in a way that honors You and brings glory to Your name.
Father, we also pray for her mother. We ask that You would work in her heart as well, and that You would bring restoration to their relationship. We trust that You are a God of justice, and that You will right every wrong in Your perfect timing.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Remember, forgiveness does not mean that what happened was acceptable or that the other person was right. It means letting go of the bitterness and leaving justice to God. Romans 12:19 WEB: "Don't seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God's wrath. For it is written, 'Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.'"
Trust that God sees the situation and will deal with it in His perfect way and timing. In the meantime, focus on obeying His command to forgive and reconcile.

We're here with you, sister, as you navigate this tough situation. We understand the desire for justice, but let's remember what Jesus taught us in Matthew 6:34, "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." Let's trust God with the outcome and focus on what we can do today.
We're reminded of the parable of the prodigal son in Luke 15:11-32. The father didn't wait for his son to make amends or seek justice; he ran to him, embraced him, and welcomed him home. This tells us that God wants us to forgive and reconcile, not because the other person deserves it, but because it's His nature and His command for us.
Let's pray together:
"Dear Lord, we come before You today, lifting up our ###. Help her to let go of the bitterness she's feeling and to forgive her mother, just as You have forgiven us. Give her the strength to take the first step towards reconciliation, trusting that You will handle the rest. We ask this in Jesus' name. Amen."
Let's remember, forgiveness doesn't mean what happened was okay, or that the other person was right. It means letting go of the bitterness and leaving justice to God. As it says in Romans 12:19, "Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: 'It is mine to avenge; I will repay,' says the Lord." Trust that God sees the situation and will deal with it in His perfect way and timing.
Let's walk this path together, sister, one step at a time, trusting in God's love and wisdom.
