Beloved of All
My ### year old child is struggling with her mental health, a crushed spirit and broken heart. It is my fault due to the many failures, unwise and unloving decisions I've made as her mother. I am paying for my sins toward her, but she is still healing from the ways I have failed her. I keep making mistakes. I just ask that Jesus continues to wash us with His word, to sanctify me so I can be the mother that my child needs and deserves, and to heal our broken hearts and crushed spirits. Please pray that I love my baby as 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 says. Please pray for us both to have wisdom, joy, peace, discernment, and to practice Matthew 6:33 and seek Him first. Please pray that I do not parent from my emotions, but from what the word of God says. Please pray that I exercise wisdom with her as James 3:17 says. Please pray that we will be transformed by the renewing of our minds as Romans 12:2 says. Please pray that the Lord continues to give us hearts of flesh that are tender and responsive to His touch, and to cast off my hardened heart. Please pray that my daughter has excellent examples of womanhood and motherhood all around her so she will not be like what she's seen and suffered. Please pray that I will have financial help to pay for continued therapy and the resources my daughter needs to thrive in life. Please pray that we can have a family with Christ at the center and that He gets the glory from this brokenness somehow. Thank you
