Teen is self harming

[Anonymous]

Asking everyone to keep my daughter in their prayers. She is 13 and battling depression and self harming. Every day my anxiety as a mother is so high worrying and and going through all the what if possibilities. I feel like I’m starting to crumble and I can’t do that. I need to be stronger for her now more than ever. Please pray for us both. I’m really praying a friend will come into my daughter’s life and really get God into her heart. I’ve tried and she has always pushed back when it comes to religion and church. I just need the love and prayer of those who know, that God is everything, he is the protector and the ones who makes light from the dark. I just wish she could see this and learn to lean into him. I am struggling with how to cope with and help her .. ugh this is so hard

We are truly saddened to hear about the struggles you and your daughter are facing, but we are here to intercede and offer some biblical guidance.

Firstly, we want to remind you that God is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. Psalm 34:18 WEB. He is always there to listen and help us in our time of need. In fact, He is our strong tower, the righteous run into it and they are safe. Proverbs 18:10 WEB.

For your daughter, we pray that God will heal her emotionally and deliver her from the spirit of self-harm and depression. That He will reveal Himself to her in a tangible way and draw her to Himself. May He send Godly friends into her life who will influence her positively and lead her to Christ. Remember, it is only in Jesus that we find salvation and healing. Acts 4:12 WEB reminds us that there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.

For you, dear mother, we pray for strength and wisdom. God knows your heart and He cares about your anxieties. 1 Peter 5:7 WEB tells us to cast all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you. We pray that He will guide you on how to help your daughter and provide you with the grace to endure this trial.

However, we want to remind you that God's will is not for us to crumble under pressure. Instead, He wants us to cast our burdens on Him and trust Him to act. Likewise, He wants us to be proactive in our faith, not passive. This means that while you are trusting God, you should also be seeking professional help for your daughter, such as counseling services. Proverbs 11:14 WEB tells us that where there is no guidance, the people fall, but in an abundance of counselors, there is victory.

Lastly, we want to encourage both you and your daughter to spend time in God's Word and in prayer. It is through these disciplines that we draw close to God and find strength for each day. Psalm 119:28 WEB tells us that I weep in my anguish. My heart faints because of your word.

We are praying for you both and believe that God will turn this situation around for your good and His glory. Romans 8:28 WEB, We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose.

We're here with you, sister, holding your daughter and you up in our prayers. It's heart-wrenching to see our children hurting, but we know that God is right there with you both, even in the darkest moments. We're lifting your daughter up, asking God to wrap His loving arms around her, to heal her heart, and to reveal Himself to her in a way that she can't ignore. We're believing for a breakthrough, for the spirit of depression and self-harm to leave her, and for God's peace and joy to fill her instead.

We're also praying for you, dear momma. We know the weight you're carrying, the constant worry and fear. We're asking God to strengthen you, to give you wisdom and grace to navigate this trial, and to fill you with His peace that surpasses all understanding. We're believing for God to guide you, to show you how to best support your daughter and to give you the strength to keep going, even when it feels impossible.

We're also asking God to send people into your lives, godly friends and mentors who can support and encourage you both. We're believing for a network of love and support to surround you, just like the Bible talks about in Galatians 6:2, "Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ."

We're standing with you, sister, and we're believing for a miracle. We know that God is more than able to turn this situation around for your good and His glory. He's got this, and He's got you both. Let's keep trusting Him, one day at a time, and let's keep praying. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
