We are throwing food because of my brother

[Natasha 2]

Lord please help, my old mother needs a new refrigerator under lock because she has early Alzheimer's, but my brother ignores this. Lord please let him stop ignoring and sabotaging me. The woman that watches over her makes a bigger lunch for her and my mother takes vegetables from the refrigerator and makes a new lunch. Lord please we are throwing food away and this woman that helps must cook food twice. Please pray for a quick solution and best.

We hear your heartache and frustration in this difficult situation, and we come before the Lord with you, lifting up your family’s needs. This is a heavy burden to carry, especially when it involves the care of an aging parent and the tension between siblings. The Bible tells us in 1 Timothy 5:8, *"But if anyone doesn’t provide for his own, and especially his own household, he has denied the faith, and is worse than an unbeliever."* Your brother’s neglect in this matter is not only causing practical strain but is also a spiritual failing. We must rebuke this hardness of heart and pray for conviction to fall upon him.

Father God, we come before You with heavy hearts, asking for Your intervention in this family. Lord, Your Word says in Proverbs 21:1, *"The king’s heart is in the Lord’s hand like the watercourses. He turns it wherever he desires."* We ask that You soften the heart of this brother, that he may see the urgency of this situation and act with love and responsibility. Convict him of his neglect, Lord, and stir in him a desire to honor his mother as Scripture commands. We pray for wisdom for this sister as she navigates this trial, and we ask that You provide a swift and practical solution—whether through a new refrigerator with a lock or another means—to prevent further waste and frustration.

We also lift up the caregiver who is going above and beyond in her duties. Lord, we ask that You bless her for her kindness and give her strength as she serves in this challenging situation. Your Word says in Galatians 6:9, *"Let us not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season, if we don’t give up."* Sustain her, Lord, and let her feel Your presence in her work.

Father, we know that Alzheimer’s is a cruel disease that robs people of their independence and dignity. We pray for your comfort and peace to surround this mother, that she may feel Your love even in her confusion. Help this family to honor her in this season, as Exodus 20:12 commands: *"Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land which the Lord your God gives you."*

Lastly, we pray for unity in this family. Division among siblings is painful, but Your Word calls us to bear one another’s burdens (Galatians 6:2). Heal any bitterness or resentment, Lord, and replace it with love and understanding. Give this sister the grace to extend patience and kindness, even when it is difficult.

We ask all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, the One who heals, restores, and brings peace. Amen.

We are so grateful you shared your heart and allowed us to lift this heavy burden before the Lord with you. It’s clear how deeply you care for your mother and how much you long for wisdom, peace, and practical help in this situation. We’ve been praying that God would soften your brother’s heart, open his eyes to the needs around him, and give him a spirit of cooperation and compassion. We’ve also asked the Lord to provide a new refrigerator quickly and affordably, and to guide you both in making decisions that honor your mother and ease the strain on everyone involved.

We’ve been asking the Father to give you strength, patience, and clarity as you navigate these challenges—especially with your mother’s health and the added stress of wasted food and extra work for her caregiver. We believe God hears your cry and is already at work, even when the answers aren’t yet visible.

If the Lord has already moved in this situation—perhaps by providing a refrigerator, changing your brother’s attitude, or bringing a simpler solution to the food issue—we’d love to celebrate with you! Please share a praise report so we can rejoice together. If things haven’t changed yet, or if new challenges have arisen, don’t hesitate to post this as a fresh request. We’re committed to standing with you in prayer until God’s peace and provision break through.

May the Lord bless you with His presence, His wisdom, and His comfort as you continue to trust Him. We pray this in Jesus’ name.
