I would really appreciate your prayers. I've been repenting of my anger towards my mother for the abuse that she allowed to happen in my childhood but can't see or feel anything happening.

We hear your cry for help and stand with you in this deeply painful struggle. The wounds of childhood abuse are not easily healed, and the anger you feel toward your mother, though understandable, must be surrendered to Christ if true healing is to come. You are right to repent, for unchecked anger can become a bitter root that defiles many (Hebrews 12:15). But repentance is not just sorrow over sin; it is a turning away from it and toward God’s mercy.
The fact that you do not yet feel anything changing does not mean God is not at work. Faith is not measured by feelings but by obedience. The psalmist cried out, "Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God; for I shall yet praise Him, the help of my countenance and my God" (Psalm 42:11 WEB). Even when emotions lag behind, God is faithful to begin His restoring work in the hidden places of the heart.
We must also gently but firmly address the reality of your mother’s failure. What was done, or allowed to be done, to you was grievous sin, and Scripture does not minimize the severity of such betrayal. Yet even in this, we are called to forgive, not because the offense was small, but because Christ forgave us while we were yet sinners (Romans 5:8). Forgiveness does not mean excusing evil or pretending it did not happen. It means releasing the debt to God, who alone has the right to judge justly (Romans 12:19). This is a process, and it may take time, but it is necessary for your own freedom.
Let us pray together now:
Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of our brother/sister, who bears the deep scars of childhood abuse. Lord, You see every wound, every memory that haunts them, and every ounce of anger that has taken root in their heart. We ask that You would meet them in their pain and begin to heal what has been broken. Give them the strength to release this anger to You, not because it is undeserved, but because You alone can carry it and make all things new.
Father, we pray for their mother. If she has not repented, we ask that You would convict her heart and lead her to true sorrow for her sin. If she has passed from this life, we trust in Your perfect justice. For our brother/sister, grant them the grace to forgive as You have forgiven them. Help them to see their mother through Your eyes, not as an enemy, but as a soul in need of Your mercy, just as they are.
Lord, we declare that bitterness will not take root here. We speak Your peace over this situation, Your healing over these memories, and Your love over this heart. Remind them daily that they are not defined by what was done to them, but by what You have done for them through the cross. Fill them with Your Holy Spirit, that they may walk in the freedom Christ died to give them.
We ask all these things in the mighty name of Jesus, the One who bore our griefs and carried our sorrows. May Your will be done in this situation, and may Your name be glorified. Amen.
In the days ahead, we encourage you to bring this pain to God daily, even when it feels like nothing is changing. Write down your prayers, read the Psalms aloud, and allow God’s Word to minister to your soul. Consider speaking with a trusted pastor or biblical counselor who can walk with you through this process. You are not alone, and God has not abandoned you. His promise stands: "He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds" (Psalm 147:3 WEB). Keep pressing into Him.

We’re praying with you right now, brother/sister, and we want you to know how deeply we feel the weight of this burden with you. It’s not easy to carry anger that’s been buried for so long, especially when it’s tied to something as heavy as childhood wounds. The fact that you’re even acknowledging this pain and seeking God’s help shows how much your heart is still reaching out for healing, even if it doesn’t feel like it’s happening yet.
We’re praying that God would soften your heart in ways you can’t even imagine right now. Maybe He’s not changing how you feel yet, but He’s changing who you are in the process, removing the bitterness, replacing it with His peace, and giving you strength to stand firm when the memories try to rise up again. You’re not just repenting for the sake of repentance; you’re surrendering this anger to the One who can turn it into something beautiful, something that will eventually bring glory to His name.
And we’re praying for your mother, whether she’s still here or not. If she’s alive, we’re asking God to break her heart in a way that leads her to true repentance and healing. If she’s gone, we’re trusting God with her soul, knowing He will judge righteously. But for you, we’re asking God to help you see her, not as the person who hurt you, but as a soul who was also broken, who needed grace herself. That doesn’t mean you have to forgive in your own strength right now, but we’re praying God would prepare your heart for that day when He calls you to release this to Him.
Lord, we declare that You are the God who heals the brokenhearted. You don’t just patch up the wounds, You make them beautiful. We’re asking You to meet our brother/sister in the middle of this pain and show them that You are near. Help them to trust that even when they can’t feel Your hand, You’re still at work. Fill them with Your Spirit, that they might walk in the freedom You died to give them. And when the anger tries to creep back in, remind them that they’re not defined by what was done to them, they’re defined by what You’ve done for them.
We’re praying for small steps, Lord, steps they might not even notice yet. Maybe it’s a quiet whisper of peace in the middle of the night, or a moment of clarity when they least expect it. Whatever it is, we’re asking You to make it real for them. And we’re praying that they’d find someone, maybe a trusted friend, a counselor, or a small group, to walk alongside them in this journey. They don’t have to do this alone.
In Jesus’ name, we stand with you, holding on to His promise that He will never leave them. Keep pressing in, one step at a time. He sees you. He’s not done with you yet.

I pray that God will calm your mind and fill you with the Holy Spirit, as you hand your burden over to him.
I ask this in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen
