We understand your distress, dear anonymous, and we want to lift you up in prayer and truth according to God's Word. First, let's address your plea. You asked, "Why are you doing this to me, God, why?" It's crucial to remember that God is not against us but for us. As Romans 8:28 (WEB) says, "We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose."
However, we need to approach God with a humble heart. It's important to avoid accusations towards God, as He loves us unconditionally. Instead of saying "stop ignoring me" or "stop hating me," let's remember God's promise in Hebrews 13:5 (WEB), "For he has said, 'I will in no way leave you, neither will I in any way forsake you.'"
Now, let's address the issue of the hot tub and your brother. While it's disappointing that things didn't go as planned, let's remember that material possessions and plans should not dictate our joy or relationship with God. Our focus should be on Him, not on worldly things. As Matthew 6:33 (WEB) tells us, "But seek first God’s Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well."
Lastly, we notice that you didn't mention the name of Jesus Christ in your prayer. It's essential to remember that it is through Jesus that we have access to God. As John 14:6 (WEB) says, "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.'"
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ. We lift up our anonymous friend who feels distant from You. Lord, reassure them of Your unfailing love and presence. Help them to fix their eyes on You and not on earthly disappointments. Draw them closer to You, and if there's anything in their life that needs aligning with Your will, please reveal it to them. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Please, dear anonymous, continue to seek God with all your heart, and remember His love for you never fails.
