I feel bound by my mother's sin. I'm struggling to let go of her. Her name is Judith hudson. Please pray for us both.

We understand the deep burden you carry, and we want you to know that you are not alone in this struggle. The weight of another’s sin—especially that of a parent—can feel overwhelming, but Scripture reminds us that while we may suffer the consequences of others’ choices, we are not bound by their sins unless we choose to remain in bondage. The Lord says in Ezekiel 18:20, *"The soul who sins shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son. The righteousness of the righteous shall be on him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be on him."* This truth frees you from the lie that you must carry what is not yours to bear. Your mother’s sins are hers to repent of, and your responsibility is to seek God’s will for *your* life, trusting Him to work in hers.
At the same time, we see your heart’s cry—a love for your mother that refuses to let go, even in pain. This is a reflection of God’s own heart for His children, who are often wayward. But we must also ask: has your struggle become an idol? Are you holding onto ### in a way that replaces your trust in God’s sovereignty over her life? Jesus warns in Matthew 10:37, *"He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me."* This doesn’t mean we stop loving our parents, but that our love for them must be surrendered to Christ first. You cannot save your mother; only God can. Your role is to pray, to forgive (as Christ forgave you), and to release her into His hands.
If there is unconfessed resentment, bitterness, or even enabling in your relationship with your mother, now is the time to bring it before the Lord. Hebrews 12:15 commands, *"Looking carefully lest anyone fall short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and many be defiled by it."* Bitterness is a chain that will destroy *you*, not the one who hurt you. Forgiveness is not excusing sin—it is choosing to trust God’s justice and mercy over your own pain.
As for ###, we pray that the Holy Spirit would convict her of sin, draw her to repentance, and reveal the truth of the Gospel to her. There is no sin too great for God’s grace—*if* she turns to Him. But you must also ask yourself: have you shared the Gospel with her? Have you urged her to seek Christ? If not, your love for her is incomplete. The greatest love we can show anyone is to point them to Jesus.
Now, let us pray together for you and ###:
Heavenly Father, we lift up this precious child of Yours who is burdened by the weight of their mother’s sin. Lord, You see the pain, the confusion, and the love that battles within their heart. We ask that You break every chain of bondage that has wrongly tied them to ###’s choices. Remind them that they are *Yours*—redeemed, forgiven, and free in Christ. Give them the strength to release their mother into Your hands, trusting that You alone can save her.
For ###, we plead for mercy. Lord, if she has not surrendered to You, soften her heart. Bring conviction of sin and a hunger for righteousness. Surround her with believers who will speak Your truth in love. If she is trapped in unrepentant sin, break its power over her. Let her see her need for Jesus and turn to Him before it is too late.
Father, we also ask for healing in this relationship. Where there has been pain, bring restoration. Where there has been enabling or codependency, bring wisdom and boundaries rooted in Your Word. Teach this dear one to love ### *as You love her*—with truth, grace, and a firm trust in Your sovereignty.
Finally, Lord, we rebuke any spiritual strongholds in ###’s life or in this family line. By the blood of Jesus, we declare that sin will not have the final word. You are the God of redemption, and we ask for Your miraculous work in both of their lives.
We pray all this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Savior and Redeemer. Amen.

We encourage you to meditate on these truths:
- **John 8:36**: *"If therefore the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed."*
- **1 Peter 5:7**: *"Cast all your worries on him, because he cares for you."*
- **Romans 12:19**: *"Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, 'Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.'"*
If you have not already, we urge you to seek biblical counseling or a mature believer who can walk with you through this. You do not have to carry this alone—the Body of Christ is here to support you. Keep praying, keep trusting, and keep pointing ### to Jesus. He is the only One who can truly set her free.

We're here with you, feeling the weight of your mother's choices. It's like carrying a heavy backpack, isn't it? But remember, Jesus said, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest" (Matthew 11:28). He's calling you to lay down that burden at His feet.
We see your love for ###, and it's beautiful. It reminds us of God's love for us, even when we're wayward. But we must also remember that our love for others should never replace our love for God. Jesus said, "He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me" (Matthew 10:37). This doesn't mean we stop loving our parents, but that our love for them is surrendered to Christ first.
It's okay to feel hurt, but bitterness can only destroy you, not the one who hurt you. Forgiveness is choosing to trust God's justice and mercy over your own pain. It's not excusing sin, but letting go of the burden of resentment.
Let's pray together:
Dear Lord, we come before You today, carrying the burden of our sister's mother, ###. Lord, we ask that You would break every chain that ties her to her mother's choices. Remind her that she is Yours - redeemed, forgiven, and free in Christ. Give her the strength to release her mother into Your hands, trusting that You alone can save her.
For ###, we plead for mercy. Lord, if she has not surrendered to You, soften her heart. Bring conviction of sin and a hunger for righteousness. Surround her with believers who will speak Your truth in love. If she is trapped in unrepentant sin, break its power over her. Let her see her need for Jesus and turn to Him before it's too late.
