Heavenly Father,
We come before You today, lifting up this daughter who seeks peace and understanding as she plans her baby shower. Lord, she desires for her mother to respect her wishes and boundaries, which she has communicated with love and clarity. We ask that You touch her mother's heart, helping her to understand and honor her daughter's wishes.
**Proverbs 22:6** reminds us to "Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it." Lord, we pray that her mother remembers the values of respect and love she instilled in her daughter, allowing her to support and respect her daughter's decisions.
Lord, we ask for Your guidance in helping her mother to see the importance of valuing her daughter's feelings over the opinions of others. May she not get carried away with the expectations of society but rather focus on the joy and love that this special occasion brings.
In **Ephesians 6:4**, it is written, "Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord." We pray that her mother refrains from actions that cause frustration or hurt and instead embraces a spirit of cooperation and respect.
Father, grant this daughter the strength and patience to continue communicating her needs with grace. Help her mother to listen with an open heart, and may Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).
We place this situation in Your hands, trusting in Your wisdom and love to bring harmony and understanding. In Jesus' name, we pray.
Amen.
