Hosanna

Father, Your Word says that when my Mom or my Dad forsake me, You will receive me. I know that I am accepted in Jesus.
I get frustrated thinking about what has happened to my parents and family, but I look to You as my help. You sent Jesus to mend our hearts and heal our broken hearts. Jesus will never leave us comfortless or without help.
Help me by Your Holy Spirit to be strong. I will not allow myself to become bitter or to speak bad or evil words about anyone, even though I may feel like it. I desire to be kind, loving, and forgiving, just like Jesus. I am going to think only on the things that are good, pure, true, clean, and holy. If I am angry, I will not sin. I will continue to look to You for help.
I ask for supernatural peace to keep me from being worried or afraid. Thank You for giving me and my family a peace that is more wonderful than anyone can imagine.
I don’t understand all that is going on with my family, so I pray that you will show my parents and family right decisions to make. I pray that they will realize the love that You have for them and that You will be their friend also.
Show the unsaved members of my family that they need to ask Jesus to be their Savior. Send someone across their path from whom they can receive counsel, and help them forgive each other so there will be healing in their relationships.
Father, although this situation seems hopeless, there is nothing that is impossible for You. You sent Jesus so that we could have life to the fullest. I know each person has his or her own will and can choose to follow You or reject You. Although I really love all my family, I will not allow them to drag me down into depression, discouragement, despair, hatred, or strife, because Your joy is my strength. I know that this situation is not my fault.
I pray and ask that the fruit of the Spirit — love, joy, peace, humility, meekness, and self-control — will replace all evil works. Thank You that I can be a light and a hope for my family. 
Father, thank You for moving in my family and keeping all of us from harm or evil. I say that this is a new day and that You are doing a new thing in my family. 
In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen


I found this sincere and utmost personal prayer of a friend of mine. Instead of always complaining why are things so broken, let's really commit the things that burden us to the one that saves.
