A Prayer for Strained Family Relationships

Description

Most of us have had a strained family relationship at some point in our lives. In those times, it is good to remember just how much Jesus loves us and how much He also loves our family member. He knows our hearts best and yearns to heal our wounds. Here is a prayer that will help you surrender your relationship to Jesus.

Full Prayer Here:
Jesus, I bring to You myself and my family member.
You know how much I love and care for my family member. You also know our relationships is strained.
You saw the times I spoke and acted in ways that have injured the heart of my family member from a place of defensiveness and hurt.
You also saw how my own heart was torn by my family member’s words and actions, which came from a place of deep pain.
Jesus, help me to remember we are both children of God and that when I hurt others and others hurt me that this is not who we were created to be.
Jesus, I ache for the reunion of our hearts.
When I desire to fix our relationship, help me to come to You and ask for Your guidance in what I should do or say, or if I should stay still in Your presence, trusting You are healing our relationship in this very moment without me lifting a finger.
Where there is pain, heal the layers of infection that has caused resentment and any desire for revenge.
Where there is sadness, lift our hearts to hear the choirs of angels singing of Your glory in heaven.
Where there is anxiety about the future and fears of our relationship never being healed, fill me with the joy of knowing healing has already begun through my entrustment of our relationship to You.
Help me to remember that You desire that we spend eternity with You and with each other. Help me to trust so deeply in Your Divine timing that I know within the depths of my soul that even should reconciliation not happen in this life, in the next life we will worship You side by side forever.
Jesus, I trust in You. I surrender myself and my loved one into Your Most Merciful, Loving, Healing, and Sacred Heart, trusting there You will cleanse our sins, heal our wounds, and restore our relationship to one which gives all glory to You. Amen.
