Dear Lord, gentle and meek, I pray that the way You lived while on earth, SIL will live now. Address the pride in her that defends and protects her ego from perceived threats. I pray that she will open her heart to You when You knock.

Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him and he with me. Revelation 3:20

So that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. Then you, being rooted and grounded in love may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ. Ephesians 3:17-18

Lord Jesus, I pray that You dwell in SIL’s heart through faith. That she is rooted and grounded in Your perfect love, and not the imperfect love of the world which shaped her love for herself and others. I pray that she may have power, together with all Your holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep Your love for her is.

In Your Perfect Love,

Amen.
