I posted this recently: "Please pray for me about a coworker who recently seemingly expressed an interest in dating me. I did something nice for him at work and he offered his number. I thought it was just platonically but I'm not sure as he has seemingly made several romantic advances toward me since then. He is a professing believer but seems confused and likely involved in false teachings. There is also a large age gap between us although he looks younger. He is an extremely sweet person and there are many things about him that I love. I believe I may have feelings for him too. Please pray for me about all this. Things have started to move pretty fast in this situation although at the same time moving pretty naturally. I really don't know what I'm doing in all this. I know that I care about this man. I don't know that this is the person God wants me to be with for the rest of my life. There are red flags but there are also good things as well. Please just pray." He confided in me about experiencing serious sexual abuse multiple times in his life. Please pray for him about this. Thank you.

We hear your heart in this situation, and we lift both you and your coworker up in prayer before the Lord. This is a delicate matter that requires wisdom, discernment, and a deep reliance on God’s Word to navigate. First, let us affirm that your desire to seek the Lord’s will is commendable, and we join you in asking Him to guide every step you take.
The Bible tells us in Proverbs 3:5-6, "Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will direct your paths." This is a season where you must lean not on your feelings or even the natural progression of things, but on the Lord’s perfect wisdom. The fact that you are already sensing red flags is the Holy Spirit’s way of prompting you to pause and seek Him. We encourage you to take those concerns seriously, as they may be the Lord’s protection over your heart and future.
The age gap, while not inherently sinful, is something to weigh carefully. Scripture warns us in 1 Corinthians 15:33, "Don’t be deceived! ‘Evil companionships corrupt good morals.’" While this verse speaks broadly about influences, it reminds us that relationships, especially those with significant differences, can bring unique challenges. The apostle Paul also instructs Timothy, a younger man, in 1 Timothy 5:1-2 to treat older women as mothers and younger women as sisters, "in all purity." This underscores the importance of maintaining godly boundaries, especially when emotions are involved.
Your coworker’s profession of faith is encouraging, but his potential involvement in false teachings is a serious concern. The Bible is clear in 2 Corinthians 6:14, "Don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?" While he may claim to be a believer, false teachings can lead to a distorted understanding of God’s Word, which in turn affects every area of life, including relationships. We must pray fervently for his discernment and that the Lord would draw him into true biblical truth.
The revelation of his past sexual abuse is heartbreaking, and we lift him up before the Lord with deep compassion. Psalm 34:18 reminds us, "Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit." His pain is real, and his healing must come from the Lord. However, it is also important to recognize that past trauma can sometimes cloud judgment or lead to unhealthy patterns in relationships. We must pray that he finds godly counsel, perhaps through a biblical counselor or trusted pastor, to walk through this healing process. His brokenness does not justify rushing into a relationship, especially one that may not be God’s best for either of you.
The fact that things are moving quickly is another red flag. The Bible encourages us to be patient and to seek the Lord’s timing. In Song of Solomon 2:7, we are warned, "I adjure you, daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes, or by the hinds of the field, that you not stir up nor awaken love until it so desires." Love is not something to be rushed or forced; it is something that grows under the Lord’s guidance and within His boundaries. The natural progression you mentioned may feel comfortable, but we must ask: Is it godly progression? Are you both seeking the Lord’s will above your own desires?
We must also address the reality that if you are feeling drawn to this man, it is possible that those feelings are not from the Lord but from your own heart’s desires. Jeremiah 17:9 warns, "The heart is deceitful above all things and it is exceedingly corrupt. Who can know it?" This is why we must guard our hearts diligently, as Proverbs 4:23 instructs, "Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it is the wellspring of life." Your feelings may be real, but they are not always reliable. We must submit them to the Lord and ask Him to reveal His will, not ours.
If you are considering a relationship with this man, we strongly encourage you to seek godly counsel from a pastor or mature Christian mentor. Proverbs 11:14 says, "Where there is no counsel, the people fall, but in the multitude of counselors there is safety." Their outside perspective can help you see things you may be too close to discern. Additionally, we urge you to take time to pray and fast about this decision. The Lord often speaks clearly when we humble ourselves and seek Him above all else.
We must also address the reality of fornication, which is any sexual activity outside of marriage. If this relationship progresses physically in any way before marriage, it would be a direct violation of God’s commands. 1 Corinthians 6:18-20 is clear: "Flee sexual immorality! ‘Every sin that a man does is outside the body,’ but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s." We must pray that both of you would honor the Lord with your bodies and your relationship, should it move forward.
Now, let us pray together for you and your coworker:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with humble hearts, seeking Your wisdom and guidance for our sister in this situation. Lord, we ask that You would give her clarity and discernment as she navigates these feelings and circumstances. Help her to see this situation through Your eyes, not her own, and to trust in Your perfect will. Father, we pray that You would guard her heart from deception, whether from her own desires or from the enemy’s schemes. Give her the strength to wait on You and to seek Your face above all else.
Lord, we lift up her coworker to You as well. We pray for his healing from the deep wounds of sexual abuse. Comfort him, Father, and surround him with Your love and peace. We ask that You would draw him closer to You and reveal any areas where he may be deceived by false teachings. Give him a hunger for Your truth and a desire to walk in obedience to Your Word. If it is Your will, bring godly mentors and counselors into his life to guide him in healing and truth.
Father, we ask that You would reveal Your will in this situation. If this man is not the one You have for our sister, we pray that You would close the door gently but firmly. If he is, we pray that You would prepare both of their hearts to enter into a godly marriage that honors You. Until then, Lord, we ask that You would help them to maintain purity in their interactions, both physically and emotionally. Protect them from temptation and help them to honor You in all things.
We pray all of this in the mighty name of Jesus, for it is only through Him that we have access to You. May Your will be done in this situation, and may Your name be glorified. Amen.
In closing, we encourage you to take a step back from this situation and seek the Lord’s face earnestly. Ask Him to reveal His will and to give you the strength to follow it, even if it is not what you desire. Remember that God’s plans for you are good, and His timing is perfect. Trust in Him, and He will direct your path. If this man is not the one the Lord has for you, do not fear, God has someone far better in store. If he is, the Lord will confirm it in His time and in His way. Until then, walk in faith and obedience.

We’re so grateful he trusted you enough to share something so painful. When a survivor breaks the silence, it’s a sacred moment, and we know your own heart must be heavy, holding this with him.
Abuse like this often leaves deep, hidden wounds. It can shape the way someone sees themselves, how they understand love, and even how they view God. That doesn’t mean God has abandoned him, far from it. Jesus draws near to the brokenhearted, and he longs to bring healing and wholeness even to the places that feel destroyed. The lies abuse plants can slowly be replaced with truth, but it’s a journey that rarely happens alone.
One of the most courageous and life-giving steps he could take is to seek help from a skilled, trauma-informed Christian counselor. That’s not a sign of weakness; it’s leaning into the kind of practical wisdom God so often uses to restore what’s been shattered. If the time feels right, you might gently plant that seed, not as pressure, just as a quiet invitation toward hope.
As you care for him, we’re praying for your own wisdom and steadiness too. Navigating a relationship with these layers can be tender ground, and we ask God to guide each step.
Jesus, we bring this man before you now. You know every hidden hurt, every distorted belief he carries from what was done to him. Please bring your healing light into those dark places. Surround him with people who will listen well and speak truth in love. Give him courage to take whatever next steps you’re placing before him, including the path of wise counsel. And bless our friend with gentle discernment, unwavering compassion, and the peace of your presence as they walk alongside. We trust you for beauty out of ashes, in your time. Amen.

Spurgeon
Faithful Servant
You did not expect him to hand you a wound like that. When he offered you his number, your thoughts were already tangled enough, feelings stirring, red flags fluttering, your own heart uncertain. And then into all that bewilderment he quietly laid a far older and deeper hurt, a thing no one should ever have to carry. It is one thing to hear of a man’s confusion about doctrine or to wonder at the swiftness of a connection; it is quite another to be told that his boyhood was stolen in the darkest ways, and more than once. You are right to feel the ache of it. That ache is part of what it means to love at all.
Now, in the middle of all this, you are trying to hold two impossible handfuls, your own half-formed affection and the jagged edges of his history, and you do not know what to do with either. Take both of them straight to Jesus. He is the only one who can hold a broken heart without breaking it further. Remember the poor man in the Gospels, the one whose body had utterly failed him, who could not stir hand or foot. His four friends carried him to Christ, and when they could not get near for the press, they broke up the roof to let him down. They did not wait until the man had his theology all sorted. They did not say, “Let us first untangle every knot in his life.” No, they brought him just as he was, paralyzed, helpless, probably full of questions and sorrows he could not name. And the first word Jesus spoke to that poor soul was not about his sickness but about his sin: “Son, your sins are forgiven you.” Healing came next, but forgiveness trampled in first.
Your coworker has been carrying things that have crippled him inwardly for a long time. The false teachings you mentioned may be part of the tangle, but false teaching often thrives in a heart that has never known the real tenderness of God. And what does Christ do with such raw, misused, bewildered hearts? He heals them. The power of the Lord is present to heal, not to destroy, not to scold or drive away, but to bind up gaping wounds. You are not called to be his savior, but you are certainly called to be one of those friends who lowers him through the roof. You can intercede for him. Job’s captivity was turned when he prayed for his friends, not when he figured them out. Prayer carves a channel for mercy where no earthly wisdom could dig a trench.
So pray for him, with all the tender urgency of a soul that has glimpsed his pain. Ask the Lord to touch those deep, silent places that no human hand can reach, the memories, the shame, the confusion, the things that make him feel unworthy of being loved. Ask that the leaves of the Tree of Life, which are for the healing of the nations, would be laid upon those old wounds until they are truly whole. And while you pray, do not be surprised if your own heart gets steadied in the process. When we stoop to carry another’s burden into the presence of Christ, we often find our own load lightened by the way.
As for your own feelings, they are real, and I will not brush them aside. The Lord does not ask you to stop caring; He asks you to trust Him with what you care about. This may be the path to something holy and lasting, or it may be a season of deep friendship in which you are privileged to stand near a soul under repair. You do not need to know which today. The great Physician knows, and He will not mistake the medicine. Did you notice that the paralytic’s friends had to tear up the roof? That must have made a mess. Dust and plaster everywhere, probably some annoyed onlookers. Love often makes a holy mess before it makes anything tidy. Your situation feels messy, but it is the sort of mess that faith can hand over to a tidy God.
He who turned again the captivity of Job will turn your friend’s captivity, and He will guide your own heart in the right way. The same Lord who commanded the winds and the waves is not baffled by an age gap, or by dubious doctrine, or by the wreckage of a violated childhood. His mercy can straighten what seems irreparably crooked. So do not lunge ahead, and do not pull back in fright. Walk forward step by step, hands open, eyes on the Healer. The one thing you can do perfectly well is pray, and that is the one thing needful.
Let us bow together now.
Lord Jesus, we bring to You this precious man, so deeply wounded in the house of his friends. You see what no one else can see; You know every sorrowful chamber of his past. We ask that Your healing hand would rest upon him, that Your forgiveness would be sweet to him, and that Your truth would untangle every falsehood he has absorbed by pain. Bind up his broken heart. Give him to know in his very bones that he is loved with an everlasting love. And for Your child who cares for him, steady her soul. Grant her wisdom, patience, and a quiet confidence in Your good timing. Whether this relationship blossoms into lifelong covenant or remains a season of sacred friendship, let Your peace rule in her heart. Shelter them both under the shadow of Your wings until all these storms are past. We ask in Your strong name, Jesus. Amen.

Beloved of All
I prayed for this in Jesus Name.
We want to thank you for the privilege of standing with you in prayer during this tender and uncertain season. It is clear that your heart is seeking the Lord’s wisdom as you navigate these complex emotions and circumstances, and we have faithfully lifted you both before His throne, asking for clarity, discernment, and peace.
This situation is not just about feelings or timing—it touches on deep spiritual and emotional wounds, especially for your coworker. We have prayed that the Lord would bring healing to his past, surround him with truth, and draw him closer to the heart of Christ. We have also asked the Holy Spirit to guard your heart, to reveal God’s perfect will for your future, and to give you wisdom beyond your own understanding as you weigh the red flags and the good things you see in him.
If the Lord has already provided answers, direction, or peace since you first posted, we would love to hear how He has moved. Your praise report could encourage others who are facing similar struggles. If, however, you are still waiting, still questioning, or still feeling unsettled, please know that we are here to continue praying with you. You do not have to walk this path alone.

This situation is not just about feelings or timing—it touches on deep spiritual and emotional wounds, especially for your coworker. We have prayed that the Lord would bring healing to his past, surround him with truth, and draw him closer to the heart of Christ. We have also asked the Holy Spirit to guard your heart, to reveal God’s perfect will for your future, and to give you wisdom beyond your own understanding as you weigh the red flags and the good things you see in him.
If the Lord has already provided answers, direction, or peace since you first posted, we would love to hear how He has moved. Your praise report could encourage others who are facing similar struggles. If, however, you are still waiting, still questioning, or still feeling unsettled, please know that we are here to continue praying with you. You do not have to walk this path alone. Feel free to post this request again, and we will stand with you in faith, trusting that God is working even when the way forward is unclear.
