Hi everyone,
It has taken me a lot of work and prayer and reflection and even forgiveness to even come to the point of being able to pray for this intention.
I have a family member who literally thinks she has never done anything wrong in her life ever. She believes she has not and cannot do anything wrong. I am not saying this to judge her, but to help, because this attitude and her distorted self-image is causing her pain and trouble, especially in her relationships with others. For those close to her, she can be scary and she strains and ruins a lot of her friendships and relationships because of her poor self-image, lack of boundaries, etc.
I just want prayers for this person. It is hard to relate to this person, because she cannot accept any kind of criticism, even constructive criticism. Any disagreement or failure to approve and validate her is essentially off limits. People are afraid to tell her the truth because of how she will react, so no one really tells her the truth. I fear this person may become unstable if she ever really is able to admit that she has sinned, done wrong. This idea that she has never done wrong almost defines her self-image.
This was a hard prayer request to make. Please also pray that I can find someone to talk to, because I don’t know how to deal with people who think they are never wrong or never have or could ever sin. I end up thinking that everything bad is my fault and that I can never do anything right or good. And when I get mad at people who think they are never wrong but I always am, I become even more angry at myself. It feels like some form of codependency. I feel like I don’t have my own identity, because I don’t know how to set boundaries and even when I do they are not respected.
I have therapists and other mental health workers. I need prayer though. It has taken me so long to even be able to articulate and explain to myself about these kind of relationships. I feel like I am somehow attracting people into my life who do not think they are ever wrong. I don’t know how to sort it out, how to have boundaries, how to stand up for myself, etc.
Thank you for any prayers for this intention.
God bless you all. Amen.
