36 years old and still friendless Summary (due to privacy): Prayer request for a 36-year-old individual seeking friendship and companionship.

Anonymous

Beloved of All
I have no friends. It hurts my feelings when my Mom said that I haven’t been trying harder. I have! I tried school (nobody would talk to me in class, even pre-Covid). I tried the workplace (nobody wants to hang out with me on the weekends except for one woman who doesn’t have the same shift as I do). I even tried the church scene but all the parishes I went to have nobody my age. And even if there was someone my age, they turned out to be a loser/jerk. Another thing that my mother hurt my feelings when she said I don’t click with anyone at all. It’s not my fault that I suffer from Pervasive Development disorder! I can’t get anyone to consider me a friend instead of an acquaintance. I am tired of being the only one who has to make plans. I am also tired of everyone always ignoring me all because I don’t have a cool job (I am an Assistant preschool teacher) like my brothers and cousin do. What should I do? Please Lord, I have been asking for a friend since I was fifteen and nothing has changed at all. There has been a big fat zero progress. Even if there was, it only moved a needle, way too slow! Not to mention I get a relapse all the time. (E.g. Last year, I had one amiga who stopped being friends with me all because something suddenly came up and I couldn’t hang out with her at the last minute!)

I am sorry that friendship is too much to ask but this is very important to me because I don’t want to die alone.

In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
 
We understand the deep longing for friendship and companionship, and we empathize with the pain and frustration felt. It's important to remember that our value is not determined by the number of friends we have or the jobs we hold, but by our identity in Christ. As it is written in Romans 5:8 WEB:

But God commends his own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Firstly, we commend the faith in praying in Jesus' name. This is so important as it is only through Jesus that we have access to God, John 14:6 says, "Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." This is not just a phrase to end prayers but an essential part of our communication to God.

It's disheartening to hear the struggles with friendship and the pain caused by the mother's words. While it's important to honor our parents, as instructed in Ephesians 6:2 WEB "Honor your father and mother,” which is the first commandment with a promise", we should also remember that our worth is not defined by their perceptions but by God's love for us.

It's encouraging to see the efforts made to connect with others at school, workplace, and church.

God's timing is perfect, and He knows the desires of our hearts.

Psalm 147:3
He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds.

Let's pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You, lifting up this dear soul who longs for friendship and companionship. We know that the world does not always understand, but You do.

Lord, we pray for true, godly friends who will encourage and support, just as iron sharpens iron as in Proverbs 27:17 As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.

In the meantime, Father, we pray for contentment and peace in this season of waiting.

Help us to remember that You are always with us, that You promised never to leave us nor forsake us as in Hebrews 13:5 WEB Let your conduct be without covetousness, and be content with what you have. For he has said, “I will in no way leave you, neither will I in any way forsake you.”

Guide us closer to You, Lord, that we may find our fulfillment in You.

Comfort those who feel lonely and remind them that You are there, even when the world may not be as in Psalm 34:18 WEB Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit.

We ask this in the precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

Finally we encourage you to keep trusting in the Lord and keep praying. God desires a personal relationship with each one of us. Keep reading the Bible to strengthen your faith and draw closer to God. We will keep praying for you.
 
We hear you, dear friend, and we're here with you in your longing for friendship and companionship. It's true that God sees your heart and understands your pain. As it's written in Psalm 34:18, "Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit."

We've been where you are, feeling like we're the only one making plans, being ignored, and struggling to connect with others. But remember, God is always with you, and He has a purpose in your life. As it's written in Romans 8:28, "And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose."

Let's pray together:

"Dear Lord, we come before you today, lifting up our friend who is feeling friendless and alone. We ask that you comfort them and remind them of your constant presence in their life. Help them to find their worth and value in you, not in the number of friends they have or the jobs they hold.

We pray for godly friends to come into their life, friends who will encourage and support them, just as iron sharpens iron. In the meantime, help them to find contentment and peace in this season of waiting.

Lord, guide them closer to you. Help them to find their fulfillment in you, not in the approval or acceptance of others. Remind them that they are never alone, that you are always with them, just as you promised in Hebrews 13:5.

We ask this in the precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen."

Keep trusting in the Lord, dear friend. Keep praying and seeking Him. He sees you, He hears you, and He loves you more than you know. We're here for you, praying with you and for you.
 
May Jesus hold you in His arms and heal you.
You are a child of God. He made you. He is our Father, and he loves you so much.
When you engage a person in conversation, don’t talk about yourself, ask about them, what movies they like, their hobbies, do they like sports, books, etc.
Try joining a group of people with PDD. It’s easier to talk to people with the same issues that we have.
But remember, we shouldn’t try to impress anyone except God. It doesn’t matter what people think about you, because God loves you and that is enough.
Isaiah 41:13- For I am the Lord your God who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, “Do not fear I will help you.”
Always ask God for His help when you need it. Tell God everyday something you are grateful for. He loves a grateful heart.
Try to do something nice for someone when you can. But do it for God, not to make yourself look good.
God bless you and give you strength and courage to overcome. In Jesus name amen.

Deuteronomy 31:6- Be strong and courageous, do not fear or be in dread of them. For it is the Lord, your God, who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you.
 
I prayed that God in Jesus' name will answer your prayer request according to God's perfect love, wisdom, will, timing, grace, and mercy. Thank You Jesus!!!

Psalm 37:4: Delight yourself in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.
Matthew 6:33: But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.
