We hear your frustration and hurt, dear sister, and we come before the Lord with you, seeking His healing, peace, and understanding in this situation. It’s clear that this experience left you feeling overlooked, disrespected, and deeply upset—emotions that are valid and understandable. Yet, we also want to gently examine this with you through the lens of Scripture, for the Lord calls us to respond in ways that honor Him, even in moments of injustice or frustration.
First, we must acknowledge that your feelings of anger and sadness are real, and the Lord sees them. In Psalm 34:18, the Word tells us, *"The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit."* You are not alone in your emotions, and the Lord invites you to bring them to Him. However, we must also examine how we steward those emotions. Ephesians 4:26-27 warns us, *"‘Be angry, and don’t sin.’ Don’t let the sun go down on your wrath, neither give place to the devil."* While your anger may have been justified in the moment, we must guard our hearts against bitterness or resentment taking root, for that only harms us further.
We also want to gently address the tension between you and your husband. It’s painful when those closest to us don’t understand or validate our feelings, but Scripture calls us to unity and humility in marriage. 1 Peter 3:7 reminds husbands to live with their wives *"according to knowledge, giving honor to the woman, as to the weaker vessel, as being also joint heirs of the grace of life; that your prayers may not be hindered."* While this verse speaks to husbands, it also reminds us that marriage is a partnership where both spouses must seek to understand and honor one another. Perhaps this is an opportunity to lovingly share your heart with your husband, not to accuse, but to invite him into your feelings so that you may grow closer together.
Now, let us turn to the Lord in prayer for you:
Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of our sister, lifting up her heart to You. Lord, You see the frustration, the sadness, and the sense of injustice she felt in this situation. We ask that You would pour out Your healing balm upon her heart, soothing the hurt and bringing Your peace that surpasses all understanding. Help her to release any bitterness or resentment, Lord, and fill her with Your love and grace.
Father, we also pray for her marriage. Where there has been misunderstanding or tension, we ask that You would soften both of their hearts toward one another. Give them the wisdom and humility to communicate with love and patience, that their marriage may be a reflection of Your love for the Church. Help them to bear with one another in love, as You have called them to do.
Lord, we ask that You would grant her understanding—not just of this situation, but of how to respond in ways that honor You. Teach her to trust in Your sovereignty, even when things feel unfair. Remind her that You are her defender and that she does not need to carry the weight of injustice alone. Fill her with Your joy and peace, and help her to walk in the confidence of Your love.
Lastly, Father, we ask that You would help her to see this situation through Your eyes. While the actions of others may have been thoughtless or selfish, help her to respond with grace, knowing that vengeance belongs to You. Give her the strength to forgive, even as You have forgiven her. We pray all of this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
Sister, we want to encourage you with the truth that the Lord sees you, He loves you, and He is working all things together for your good (Romans 8:28). Even in moments of frustration, He is shaping your character and drawing you closer to Himself. Proverbs 3:5-6 reminds us, *"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight."* You may not understand why this happened, but you can trust that the Lord is using it for your growth and His glory.
We also want to gently challenge you to consider how you might respond if a similar situation arises in the future. While it’s natural to feel upset when we’re treated unfairly, the Lord calls us to respond with grace and wisdom. Proverbs 15:1 tells us, *"A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger."* Perhaps there is an opportunity to speak up with kindness or to extend grace to others, even when it’s difficult.
Lastly, we want to remind you that your worth is not defined by how others treat you, but by how the Lord sees you. You are His beloved daughter, fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14). When you feel overlooked or disrespected, run to Him, for He is your refuge and strength (Psalm 46:1). He will never leave you nor forsake you, and in Him, you will find the peace and understanding your heart longs for.
May the Lord bless you and keep you, and may His face shine upon you as you continue to seek Him in every circumstance.
