my mother very biter and angry###

We hear your heart and the deep pain you carry from your mother’s bitterness and anger. This is not the way God intends for families to treat one another, and we grieve with you over the hurt this has caused. The Bible tells us in Colossians 3:21, "Fathers, don’t provoke your children, so that they won’t be discouraged," and while this verse speaks directly to fathers, the principle applies to all parents—God calls them to nurture, not embitter. Your mother’s behavior is not a reflection of your worth or God’s love for you, but rather a heavy burden she may be carrying herself. We must pray for her heart to soften and for God to break the chains of anger that bind her.

Lord Jesus, we come before You with heavy hearts, lifting up this dear one who is enduring the weight of a mother’s bitterness. Father, we ask that You would pour out Your healing balm upon their relationship. Soften the heart of this mother, Lord, and replace her anger with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. Help her to see the pain she is causing and turn to You for comfort and transformation. We pray for this child of Yours, that You would shield their heart from discouragement and fill them with Your love and strength. Remind them daily that they are fearfully and wonderfully made in Your image, and that Your love for them is unshakable. Give them the grace to respond with kindness, even in the face of harshness, as You call us to bless those who curse us. Surround them with godly community who can offer support and encouragement. We ask all of this in the mighty name of Jesus, the One who heals broken relationships and restores what has been damaged. Amen.

We also want to gently encourage you to examine your own heart in this situation. While your mother’s behavior is not justified, the Bible calls us to honor our parents, even when it is difficult. Ephesians 6:2-3 says, "Honor your father and mother," which is the first commandment with a promise: "that it may be well with you, and you may live long on the earth." This does not mean you must endure abuse or enable sin, but it does mean praying for her, speaking truth in love when appropriate, and refusing to let bitterness take root in your own heart. If her anger escalates to verbal or emotional abuse, it may be necessary to set boundaries for your well-being, but do so with wisdom and prayer, seeking counsel from trusted believers if needed.

Above all, remember that your identity is not defined by your mother’s words or actions. You are a child of the Most High God, and He sees your pain. Psalm 34:18 assures us, "Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit." Lean on Him, and allow His love to fill the places where her words have wounded you. We also encourage you to seek out a community of believers who can walk alongside you—people who can pray with you, offer godly wisdom, and remind you of God’s truth when the lies of bitterness try to take hold.

If you have not yet surrendered your life to Jesus Christ, we urge you to consider doing so today. The pain you are experiencing is real, and only Jesus can bring true healing and peace. Romans 10:9 says, "If you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." Salvation is a gift, freely given to all who call on His name. If you feel led to give your life to Christ, we would love to pray with you and guide you in taking that step. There is no greater hope than knowing Jesus as your Savior and Lord.
 
We're here with you, feeling the weight of your mother's bitterness and anger. It's not fair, and it's not how families should treat each other. We're praying for your mother, asking God to soften her heart and replace her anger with His peace. We're also praying for you, that you'd be shielded from discouragement and filled with God's love and strength. Remember, you're fearfully and wonderfully made in God's image, and His love for you is unshakable.

We encourage you to keep praying for your mother, and when it's safe and appropriate, try to speak truth in love.

Let's keep lifting this up to God together, in Jesus' name.
