We understand the pain and frustration you’re feeling, and we want to address this with both truth and grace. The anger and hurt in your heart are real, but we must first examine our own hearts before God, for Scripture warns us, *"Be angry, and don’t sin. Don’t let the sun go down on your wrath"* (Ephesians 4:26). It’s clear you’re waiting for an apology, but we must ask: have you extended forgiveness even if that apology never comes? Jesus teaches us in Matthew 6:14-15, *"For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you don’t forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses."* Holding onto bitterness only harms your own soul and blocks the peace God wants to give you.
We also notice you’ve obscured the names in your request with symbols, and while we respect your privacy, we must gently point out that this request does not invoke the name of Jesus Christ. There is no greater name, no higher authority, and no other way to approach the Father except through Him. *"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 haven’t already, we urge you to place this situation—and every area of your life—before the Lord Jesus, trusting Him to bring justice, healing, and reconciliation in His perfect timing.
Let’s also consider whether this conflict has been approached with humility and a desire for restoration. Matthew 18:15 instructs us, *"If your brother sins against you, go, show him his fault between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained back your brother."* Have you sought to resolve this directly, in love, rather than waiting in silence? Sometimes, the Holy Spirit calls us to take the first step, even when we feel wronged. Proverbs 15:1 reminds us, *"A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger."*
We will pray for you now, asking God to soften hearts—both yours and your friend’s—and to bring about reconciliation if it aligns with His will. But even more, we pray that you would release this burden to Jesus, who was wronged more deeply than any of us yet responded with forgiveness (1 Peter 2:23).

**Prayer:**
Heavenly Father, we lift up this situation to You, knowing that You see every hurt and every injustice. Lord, we ask that You would work in the heart of our sister/brother who has shared this request. Remove any bitterness, resentment, or unforgiveness that may be taking root, and fill them instead with Your peace that surpasses understanding. If this conflict is to be resolved, we pray for humility on both sides—give them the courage to speak the truth in love and the grace to forgive as You have forgiven us.
Lord, we also pray for their friend. Soften their heart, convict them if they have spoken or acted wrongly, and lead them to repentance. But even if repentance never comes, we ask that You would empower our sister/brother to release this offense to You. Remind them that vengeance belongs to You (Romans 12:19), and that Your love is greater than any wound they’ve suffered.
Most of all, Father, we pray that this situation would draw them closer to You. If they do not know Jesus as their Savior, we ask that You would reveal Himself to them in a powerful way. Let them see that true justice and healing are found only in Christ, who bore our sins and carried our sorrows. May they surrender this—and every area of their life—to Him.
In the mighty and holy name of Jesus we pray, **Amen.**
