We pray that you will heal this relationship so that they can feel peace with the body that you created for them, peace with the food that you have provided for them, and peace with the exercise that they are privileged to participate in.
Abbie: Remind them God that they bear your image and that their body houses the Holy Spirit and that they are precious in your sight. We lay all of their health concerns at your feet, God. Help them to trust that you are the great physician and healer and that you command us to lay our worries at your feet.
Hannah: Give them supernatural wisdom to trust in the promise that you will heal us in heaven if not here on earth.
