Lord, save my Daddy

I don't want to wait anymore. I feel like the breaking point is coming, the complete hardening or the break to make it soft, or the end. I don't want to continue to ignore the elephant in the room every time I look at him and know it's not alright.

But never the less, not my will, but Yours be done.

Can I pray that in this situation? Isn't that what I have to hold onto? You will be glorified, that is all that matters. And yet, please be pleased to glorify Yourself through this one in the greater of the two, not the just wrath, but the amazing grace. Please Father, save my daddy, give him to Your Son, open his heart. Do whatever it takes.

Dear Jennifer,

Thank you so much for sharing, and letting me pray with you! May God bless you with peace to wait for His timing and with the "effective fervent prayer" that accomplishes much. I am praying with you, and Jesus promises that "if two of you shall agree on earth as touching anything that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven." Matt. 18:19
Oh, Lord, please bless Jennifer's dad with Your grace and open His eyes to Your truth. Save him through Your power; I praise You for Your grace that You have given to Jennifer and to me, and I ask that you would give that same faith and salvation to her father. Thank you so much, Lord, that we can come before your throne with our sins separated from us as far as the east is from the west, and that all you see is the righteousness of Your beloved Son. In the name of our great Savior, Jesus Christ, I pray this. Amen.
God bless you this week, Jennifer! Love you!

In His service,
Emily
