We are truly saddened to hear about the broken relationship between you and your daughter. We will stand with you in prayer and offer some biblical guidance. First mention is that we are to always pray in the name of Jesus, and it is in this name that we offer prayers to God.
Let's remember the words of Jesus in Matthew WEB:
If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him!
God cares deeply about your relationship with your daughter, and He wants to see it restored.
Firstly, let's acknowledge that the Bible calls us to live in harmony with one another. Romans WEB:
If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men.
It's commendable that you have taken the step to apologize to your daughter, even when you do not fully understand the issues at hand. This shows humility and a willingness to reconcile.
However, it's crucial to address the spiritual aspect of your daughter's life. Her uncertainty about God's reality is a significant concern. Let us also pray for her faith, because it is only through Jesus that we can have a relationship with God. Like Jesus said,
I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up this mother and daughter. Lord, You know the pain and brokenness they are experiencing. We ask for Your healing touch on their relationship. Guide them towards open and honest communication, and help them to understand each other's perspectives.
Lord, we also pray for the daughter's faith. Open her heart, they she may know You as her Savior and Lord.
Father, You promised that if we ask for bread, You will not give us a stone. So, we ask for healing, restoration, and a renewed faith. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Lastly, we encourage you to continue being a Godly example to your daughter. Demonstrate the love of Christ to her, and trust that God is working in her life, even if you cannot see it yet.
Be reassured that God says,
Can a woman forget her nursing child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? Yes, they may, yet I will not forget you!
And because of this, we will always have hope.
