HELP ME

[Anonymous]

Help me! I am a moron, a fool! I keep making mistakes, doesn’t help my mum keeps mentioning them, it seems when she does that, I make more of them. I don’t know if I am allowed any more money; if forced to return money I earned or got, or not; despite needing it. I don’t know if my period is going to come early or why I am a moron? I don’t know if I am allowed to go to church today, due to my mistakes or some other reason, like the weather, for example. Hope I do go to church, though. Hope no rain this afternoon or early evening hours. My mum ### is very strict, she is getting worse, even if I made no mistakes. My dad ### is sick; my mum treated him badly, recently, don’t think he deserved it; things going wrong, doesn’t help, not all his fault. Hope he is well enough to do things, soon. We are out of town now, hope not forced to take my room apart; more important things to worry about like possible water damage. My mum’s mental health is not good.

We hear your heart in this and we want to lift you up together before the Lord, for you are not a moron or a fool in His eyes. You are fearfully and wonderfully made and deeply loved by Him. Psalm 139:14 says we are fearfully and wonderfully made, and Ephesians 2:10 says we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works. The enemy wants you to live under condemnation and shame for your mistakes, but we want to gently correct that label you have put on yourself. There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, Romans 8:1. We all make mistakes, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, Romans 3:23, but God's grace is greater than our failures and His mercies are new every morning, Lamentations 3:23. Proverbs 24:16 reminds us that a righteous man falls seven times and rises up again.

We understand how heavy it feels when your mum keeps mentioning your mistakes. It can make you feel more anxious and then you make even more mistakes. We pray for your mum, whose mental health you say is not good and who has become very strict. We honor the command to honor your father and your mother, Exodus 20:12, and we encourage you to continue to show respect even while you are hurting. At the same time Scripture says fathers and mothers should not provoke their children to anger, Ephesians 6:4, and a gentle answer turns away wrath, Proverbs 15:1. We pray the Lord will soften her heart, give her peace, and help you both to communicate with more grace and patience. If her strictness or mental health struggles become overwhelming, we encourage you to seek help from a trusted pastor, counselor, or another safe adult in your church family, for God wants to bring support around you.

We are also praying for your dad who is sick and who you feel was treated badly. We ask the Lord to bring healing and comfort to him, and peace to your home when things are going wrong that are not all his fault. James 5:15 says the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. We pray he will be well enough soon to do the things he needs to do, and that the Lord will be your refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble, Psalm 46:1, even over concerns about water damage and being forced to take your room apart while you are out of town.

We hear your worries about money, whether you are allowed to keep what you earned, and about your period coming early, and about whether you are allowed to go to church, and about the weather. We want to remind you that your mistakes do not disqualify you from coming into God's house. We are all welcomed by grace, not by perfection, and we should not forsake assembling together, Hebrews 10:25. Church is precisely the place for those who feel weak and need grace. Do not let shame keep you away. We pray you are able to go today and be encouraged. We also cast your anxieties about your body, your finances, and the weather on Him, because He cares for you, 1 Peter 5:7. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God, and the peace of God which surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus, Philippians 4:6-7. Your heavenly Father knows you need these things and will supply every need according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus, Philippians 4:19. And for tomorrow's worries about rain or other things, Jesus said do not be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself, Matthew 6:34.

We noticed your request did not mention the name of Jesus, and we want to share how important that is, because it is only through Jesus that we have access to God. Jesus said I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me, John 14:6. There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved, Acts 4:12. If you have not already, we encourage you to call on Him, confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and you will be saved, Romans 10:9. It is by His blood that our mistakes are forgiven when we repent and trust Him.

We pray together now for you.

Father in heaven, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ and lift up this precious one to You. Lord, quiet the voice of condemnation that calls her a moron and a fool, and let her hear Your voice that calls her Your beloved child. Forgive her mistakes as she confesses them to You, and help her to forgive herself and to learn and grow in wisdom. Fill her with Your peace that guards her heart and mind. We pray for her mum, Lord, bring healing to her mind and emotions, soften her heart, give her rest and help her to speak with grace and encouragement. We pray for her dad, touch his body and bring healing and strength. Provide for their financial needs and give wisdom about the money concerns. Calm her anxiety about her body and her health, remind her that You designed her and You care for every detail. Provide safety from water damage and give wisdom for practical matters about their home. Lord, make a way for her to go to church today if it is Your will, and let her find joy and belonging there no matter the weather. Lead her in Your will and help her to know she is fully loved and fully welcome in Your presence through Jesus. In Jesus name we pray, amen.

We hear how heavy everything feels right now, with so many worries piling up at once, about mistakes, money, church, the weather, your dad being sick, and your mum. It makes sense you feel overwhelmed and hard on yourself.

Calling yourself a moron or a fool when you make mistakes is painful to carry, and it is not how God sees you. Making mistakes does not make you worthless. We all make them, and they do not define who you are. When others point them out repeatedly, it can actually make us more anxious and more likely to stumble, not less. Feeling anxious when so much feels uncertain is a normal human response, not a sign that something is wrong with your character.

It sounds like church is important to you and you hope to go today. If you are unsure whether you are allowed, a calm, brief question to your mum or dad when things are quiet might bring more clarity than trying to guess. Checking the weather forecast together could also ease that one worry. For the questions about your period and about money, if those continue to trouble you it can help to talk with a trusted adult or a medical professional alongside prayer, so you are not carrying those questions alone.

We are praying for you, for your dad's health, and for your mum as well.

Father, in Jesus' name we lift this dear one to You. Quiet the harsh thoughts and the worry, and remind them they are valued and loved by You. Give wisdom for today, peace about church and home, and care for their dad and mum. Guide them to helpful support and keep them close to You. Amen.

[Spurgeon]

Your honest and troubled cry has been read with much tenderness and prayer before the Lord. To feel yourself a fool and to mourn over repeated mistakes is not a strange experience to the people of God, for every Christian in proportion as he lives near to God will feel this self abasement and lowliness of heart. Yet hear this truth which is your only hope and mine, that where sin abounded grace did much more abound. Grace is not set forth for sale, nor is it given upon merit or recommendation found in your character or resolutions. It is freely given to us of God, received through grace and understood by grace, and it is not of him that wills nor of him that runs but of God that shows mercy.

Do not think that your mistakes have shut the door of the house of God against you. If grace were only for those who had no sin to confess, it were not worth having, and saints would soon return to their sins unless grace were constantly bestowed. The very purpose of the gospel is that grace should reign even where there is spiritual infirmity and affliction. You need not make yourself worthy to come to church, for Christ sups with sinners who once refused Him, and His grace is given against our will until our will is changed by sovereign grace. If weather and providence permit, go up to the house of prayer with the humble plea that you come as a sinner needing mercy, and you will find that grace has provided more than sin ever took away.

I hear also your anxieties about money, about whether you may keep what you have earned, about your health and the course of nature, about rain and many little things which together press very heavily upon the spirit. Have you not found that the very anxiety which arises through your being in a difficulty unfits you to meet that difficulty. To tell yourself about it over and over, when that anxiety is confined to yourself, brings no good. Providence and grace are very near akin, and if providence is the wheel, grace is the hand which turns and guides it. Cast your care upon Him who cares for you, for your immortal soul is worth far more than these outward things, and He who sees your ways yet pours His grace upon the undeserving. Be not searching within yourself for some little merit to recommend you, but look to Him whose self sacrifice upon the cross is the great victory of divine grace.

For your dear father who is sick, and for your mother whose strictness and burdened mind cause you such sorrow, I will pray that the Lord will show His preventing and restraining grace in that home. Honour your parents as the Lord commands, even when their infirmities are heavy upon you, and remember that all the afflictions in the world apart from the grace of God will only harden men, but grace can soften and renew. May the Lord give healing and strength to your father according to His wise will, and may He give to your mother quietness of mind and to you patience and gentleness under her words. When a mother mentions faults often, it can indeed make the heart tremble and err the more, but the Lord is aware of the unworthiness and weakness of those to whom He deals out His grace, and it is the glory of that grace that He is kind to such as we are.

As for your being out of town and the fears about your room and possible water damage, commit these temporal matters to the Lord who numbers all our days and orders our steps. There is a formative grace and a preserving grace that goes with us even when we cannot see when it began. Do what is needful and honest in the duties before you, and leave the outcome with Him who glorified Himself not in power alone but in shame and death for sinners.

May the Lord empty you of self dependence and self exaltation, not that you should despise yourself with a mock humility, but that being emptied of self by the grace of God you may be spiritually enriched and perceive that all is of divine grace by the free gift of the Spirit. May He quiet your anxious thoughts, provide for your daily needs, steady your health, and bring you with joy into the assembly of His people today if it be His will. And when the judgment throne is set, may that same grace which now invites you, robe you in the righteousness of Jesus and say, Come, you blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you.

We will pray for you, for your mother and for your father, that sovereign grace which waits not for man may abound toward you all, and that you may be led to cry, I yield to the all conquering grace of God and bless the hand that sweetly bows me to its mighty sway.
