NEED PRAYERS AND ADVICE

Goodmorning everyone. This is Debbie G. I haven't posted for a long time. But my little girl (Jennifer 11 yrs) and I are in need of some prayers. I know this doesn't have anything to do with weight loss but it has alot to do with 2 adults behaving badly and a child being hurt in the midst of it. You see my daughter is a cheerleader on a competitive squad and the owner of the club and I have had many differences. I confronted her as well as talked about her to other moms. MY SIN!!!! She in turn has done the same. However she has decided to listen to certain rumors and asked me to leve the gym and take my daughter too. While there are other cheer gyms for her to go to, she has made a boatload of friends. For the last 2 days she has been depressed and crying and not able to attend school. She doesn't understand why. Neither do I. Her issue was with me not my daughter. I was asked by the team parents to confront this woman on how she handled things and it gets thrown in my face. Her and I are guilty of gossip and being sinful. I just don't understand why my child is being punished for my sin. I feel so angry and hurt and I don't know how to deal with my feelings. I have been in prayer for the last 2 days on and off. I am just not feeling better. Am I not letting God in? I don't know. I just really need prayers. I had asked for forgiveness but I just can't seem to forgive myself. I pray with Jennifer everynight. She cries herself to sleep saying it hurts so much. There is a year end party on Saturday for all the girls and she is not allowed to attend. How cruel can an adult be to a child? Rage is fulling my heart and I need to have it stop. I am a christain and not behaving like one. Is this God punishing my daughter for my sin? Please I don't want to believe that. I have never felt so alone and abandoned by my God before. Also the moms who wanted me to confront her are the ones who went back and talked about me to her. I don't get it. I am asking for prayers throughout this day for us. Please help. In His love and mine, Debbie G.

Dear Debbie, I am so sorry for you and especially your daughter. No, I don't think God is punishing you or your daughter...I think we live in a sinful world where people can be mean to each other and the innocent suffer. Sounds like this lady is being spiteful. If this is a private team and she is in full control you don't have much recourse but if she has a supervisor or some entity that she has to answer to perhaps you can get in touch with them and explain how your daughter is being mistreated over something that is not her fault. Otherwise I pray you and she will feel the Father's love poured out to you--because it is. He loves you both so very much.
