Please pray for my brother. He’s been struggling with a lot of bitterness and resentment toward our parents, siblings, and even life itself, largely because of his long and difficult illness. My heart aches for him and his family. Please pray that they will turn their hearts toward God, come to know Jesus in a personal and life-changing way, and receive His gift of salvation. Pray that God will bring love, unity, forgiveness, and reconciliation among our family members. For complete healing—physical, spiritual, and emotional. Pray that God will convict his heart of his need for Jesus and bring healing to the deep wounds that have kept him in bitterness and unforgiveness. Pray that the Lord will turn their hearts toward Him so that they may be redeemed, restored, and made whole through our Savior.

Please pray for my son, who is currently in a relationship with a woman we do not believe is right for him. Although she is saying all the right things to convince him otherwise, he is unwilling to listen and is convinced she is the right person. Pray that God will speak clearly to my son, giving him wisdom, discernment, and understanding. Pray that he will seek God’s will in choosing a godly and suitable life partner. Please also pray for my wife and me—that God will grant us wisdom, patience, and grace in how we relate to our son. We trust that it is God who convicts and guides hearts at the right time.
