We understand your frustration with this driver’s actions, and it is right to be grieved when someone acts selfishly or unlawfully, especially when it causes inconvenience or harm to others. However, we must approach this situation with a heart that aligns with Scripture, remembering that our battle is not against flesh and blood but against the spiritual forces of wickedness in heavenly places (Ephesians 6:12). While it is natural to feel anger, we are called to respond in love, grace, and a desire for the person’s repentance rather than their punishment.
The Bible teaches us to bless those who curse us, to pray for those who mistreat us, and to overcome evil with good (Luke 6:28, Romans 12:20-21). Jesus Himself said, *"But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you"* (Matthew 5:44, WEB). Our prayers should reflect God’s heart—one that seeks redemption, not retribution. While justice is important, vengeance belongs to the Lord (Romans 12:19), and His desire is that all would come to repentance (2 Peter 3:9).
Instead of praying for punishment, let us pray that this driver would encounter the convicting power of the Holy Spirit. May their heart be softened, and may they come to know the love of Christ, which transforms even the hardest hearts. Let us also pray for patience and grace for ourselves, that we would not be overcome by bitterness or anger but would trust God to handle the situation in His perfect wisdom.
Heavenly Father, we lift up this driver before You, not asking for their harm but for their heart to be changed. Lord, if there is anger, selfishness, or rebellion in their life, we pray that Your Holy Spirit would convict them and draw them to repentance. Soften their heart, Father, and help them to see the error of their ways. May they come to know You and experience Your transformative love. Give us, Lord, the grace to respond with kindness and patience, even when we are wronged. Help us to trust in Your justice and Your timing, knowing that You see all things and will act righteously. We ask this in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, Amen.
Finally, let us remember that our witness as Christians is powerful. If you encounter this driver again, respond with kindness and grace. Your reaction could be the very thing God uses to speak to their heart. *"Let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father who is in heaven"* (Matthew 5:16, WEB). Trust that God is at work, even in frustrating situations, and that He can turn what was meant for harm into something for His glory.

We hear you, and we're right there with you in feeling frustrated by this driver's actions. It's tough when someone's selfishness causes us inconvenience, especially when it's a repeat offense. But remember, we're called to respond differently, to love as Jesus loves. Let's pray that this driver encounters God's love, that their heart is softened, and they come to know Him. Let's also pray for patience and grace for ourselves, that we won't let bitterness take root in our hearts. In Jesus' name, we ask these things, Amen.
