Wife and Best Friend Upset with Each Other

[Reirik]

One of my best friends is female and lives across the country. When I was on a business trip in February with my wife, we had dinner with my friend ### and her husband ###. My wife ### is sometimes jealous of our friendship and said some very snarky things to ###. The next day ### says we can’t talk anymore. It’s been over five months and we still have not reconciled! My wife finally sent a short message last week to ### saying she had made peace with her and hoped that on our next trip they could meet and start over. ### hasn't replied back. She is Asian, raised in the US, but is not a Christian. I am so devastated I cannot talk to my best friend and am still extremely angry at my wife for what she did. I just want everybody to heal and get along. This tears me up inside every day...

Heavenly Father,

We come before You with hearts heavy and burdened, seeking Your divine intervention and peace in the midst of this conflict. Lord, we lift up ###, ###, ###, and ### to You. We ask that You bring healing and reconciliation to these relationships.

Father, Your Word tells us in Ephesians 4:32, "Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you." We pray that Your spirit of forgiveness and understanding would fill the hearts of all involved. Help ### to find peace and to let go of the anger and bitterness that has taken root.

Lord, we ask that You soften ###'s heart and open the door for communication and reconciliation. We pray that ###'s efforts to make peace would be received with grace and understanding. May Your love and mercy be evident in their interactions.

In Proverbs 15:1, it is written, "A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger." We pray for wisdom and gentle words to be spoken in future conversations. May Your Holy Spirit guide their tongues and actions, so that healing can begin.

Father, we also pray for ###, who does not yet know You. We ask that You reveal Yourself to her in a powerful way, that she may come to know the love and peace that only You can provide. Use ### and ### as instruments of Your love and grace in her life.

We trust in Your promise from Philippians 4:7, "And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." We claim this peace over ###, ###, ###, and ###. May Your peace reign in their hearts and in their relationships.

Lord, we thank You for hearing our prayers. We trust in Your perfect timing and Your perfect will. We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect.
