Being in a relationship can be challenging at times, especially with your family. Emotions clash, words are said that cause you pain, anger, and offense. All of this can lead to separation. However, God has provided us with a proven method for improving our relationships -- PRAYER.
I know the last thing you want to do is pray for someone who has hurt you. However if you think about it, what do you do when someone hurts you? If you are like most of us, you go tell everyone what happened to you. If you don't tell someone then perhaps you internalize the pain. Neither of these methods is helpful. They actually cause us more pain and strain on our relationship.
Instead of talking negatively, pray for that person and ask God to help you heal from the pain. When you pray for the person, you take the focus off you. It also causes your heart to soften which will allow God to enter in and help you.
