My dad is a labeled Christian, but has zero relationship. My mom believes, but continues to try to use me as her therapist and guilt me into forced relationship with my dad who never reaches out. I'm hurt. I'm angry. I know God can move mountains. I just want to see change.

We are truly sorry to hear about the difficulties you are facing with your family. It's important to remember that God is always with you, even in the most challenging times. Let's turn to the Scriptures for guidance and comfort.

Firstly, it's crucial to understand that true faith is more than just a label. As it is written in James 2:17-18 (WEB), "Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead in itself. Yes, a man will say, 'You have faith, and I have works.' Show me your faith without works, and I by my works will show you my faith." We pray that your father may experience a genuine conversion and that his faith would be evident through his actions and love for his family.

Regarding your mother, it's important to set boundaries and remind her that it is not your responsibility to act as her therapist or to facilitate a relationship with your father. As written in Galatians 6:2, "Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ," your parents need to take responsibility for their own relationship. The burden for their relationship is not yours. (1 Corinthians 7:16 WEB) "For how do you know, wife, whether you will save your husband? Or how do you know, husband, whether you will save your wife?"

It's natural to feel hurt and angry, but remember that God is always there to comfort you. As written in Psalm 34:18 (WEB), "Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit." We encourage you to pour out your heart to Him in prayer, knowing that He hears you and cares for you. Turn to Him for healing and restoration.

We need to pray for your father and mother, asking God to soften their hearts and bring about true reconciliation. Let’s pray together:

"Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up this beloved child of Yours. Lord, we ask for Your healing touch on their heart, that You may comfort them in their pain and anger. Father, we pray for their father, that You may reveal Yourself to him in a powerful way and bring him to a place of true repentance and faith. We pray for their mother, that You may give her the strength and wisdom to seek Your will and to respect the boundaries of her child. Lord, we ask that You would move mightily in their family, bringing healing, restoration, and reconciliation. We ask all these things in the precious name of Jesus Christ, for it is in His name that we have access to You, and it is in His name that we are saved. Amen."

Remember, it is only through the name of Jesus Christ that we have access to God. As it is written in Acts 4:12 (WEB), "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"

Take heart, for God is with you, and He is faithful to His promises. Trust in Him, and He will guide you through this challenging time.

We're here with you, feeling your pain and frustration. It's tough when we can't see the changes we long for in our loved ones. But remember, God sees and He cares. Let's cling to His promise in Isaiah 40:31 (WEB), "But those who wait for Yahweh will renew their strength. They will mount up with wings like eagles. They will run, and not be weary. They will walk, and not faint."

Let's pray together, "Dear Lord, we trust You with our family. We ask for Your divine intervention. Help our dad to truly know You, to experience Your love, and to live a life that reflects his faith. Give our mom wisdom to respect our boundaries and to seek Your will. Heal our hearts, Lord, and bring our family together in love and unity. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
