Entrusting my ### ❤️💋

[Craurath]

Heavenly Father,

I come before You with a humble heart, trusting in Your perfect wisdom, timing, and love. Thank You for bringing ### into my life. You know every detail of our hearts, our thoughts, and our future better than we ever could.

Lord, I lift up my boyfriend and chatmate in ### to You. Please touch his heart with Your love, peace, and truth. If it is Your will, give him courage to move forward in getting to know me more deeply and honestly. Order his steps according to Your perfect plan. If it is good and pleasing in Your sight, open the way for us to have a meaningful phone call or video call, and help us communicate with sincerity, openness, and respect.

Father, if this relationship is part of Your purpose for our lives, help him become intentional and serious about our communication and our relationship. Guide both of us to seek You first, to honor You in our words and actions, and to build a relationship founded on faith, honesty, trust, and genuine love.

Lord Jesus, I surrender my own desires to You. As Your Word teaches, I pray, "Not my will, but Yours be done." If this relationship is Your will, strengthen it. If You have a different path, give me the grace to trust You completely, knowing that Your plans are always good.

Fill ###'s heart and mind with the love that comes from You. If it is Your will for us to share a future together, grow in him a sincere, faithful, and unconditional love—one that reflects Your patience, kindness, forgiveness, and steadfast commitment. Likewise, shape my heart so that I may love him in a Christlike way, free from fear, selfishness, or impatience.

Protect us from misunderstanding, doubt, fear, and anything that would draw us away from You. Help us to encourage one another in faith and to walk in integrity and truth.

I place this relationship into Your loving hands. I trust You to open the right doors, close the wrong ones, and lead us according to Your perfect will. Whatever the outcome, help me rest in the assurance that Your love never fails and that Your plans for me are always for my good and for Your glory.

In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, I pray.

Amen.

We hear your heartfelt prayer and join with you in seeking the Lord’s will for your life and the potential future He may have for you with this man. Your desire to surrender your own plans and trust in God’s perfect timing is commendable, and we stand with you in praying for His guidance.

First, we want to affirm the importance of seeking God’s will above all else. Jesus teaches us in Matthew 6:33, "But seek first God’s Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well." Your prayer reflects this truth, and we encourage you to continue placing God at the center of your desires. It is only through His wisdom that we can discern His plans for us.

We also want to gently address the nature of your relationship. You refer to this man as your "boyfriend," which suggests a level of commitment that, biblically, should only exist within the context of courtship leading to marriage. Scripture is clear that intimacy, emotional, spiritual, or physical, should be reserved for the covenant of marriage. In 1 Corinthians 6:18-20, we are warned, "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 which is in you, which 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." While your relationship may not yet involve physical intimacy, emotional attachment outside of a God-honoring commitment can still lead to heartache or compromise. We encourage you to prayerfully consider whether this relationship is moving toward marriage or if it is merely a temporary connection that may not align with God’s best for you.

We also want to emphasize the importance of purity in your thoughts and actions. In Matthew 5:28, Jesus says, "But I tell you that everyone who gazes at a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already in his heart." This principle applies to both men and women. If your relationship is not moving toward marriage, it may be wise to step back and seek the Lord’s direction for boundaries that honor Him. If marriage is the goal, then your communication and interactions should reflect the seriousness of that commitment, with accountability and godly counsel guiding you both.

Let us pray with you now:

Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts that long to honor You in all things. We lift up this sister in Christ and her desire for a relationship that reflects Your love and purpose. Lord, we ask that You would give her clarity and wisdom as she seeks Your will. If this man is the one You have prepared for her, we pray that You would draw him closer to You and deepen his commitment to her in a way that honors You. If this is not Your plan, we ask that You would give her the strength to trust You fully, knowing that Your ways are higher than ours.

Father, we ask that You would guard her heart from impatience, fear, or any attachment that does not align with Your Word. Help her to walk in purity, both in her actions and in her thoughts, and to seek You above all else. If marriage is Your will for her, we pray that You would prepare her and this man to be a godly husband and wife, reflecting Christ’s love for the Church. If this relationship is not part of Your plan, we ask that You would heal any disappointment and lead her into the future You have for her, filled with hope and purpose.

Lord, we also pray for this man. Soften his heart to Your leading and give him the courage to pursue You first. If this relationship is Your will, may he grow in love, faithfulness, and commitment to her in a way that honors You. If it is not, may he also find peace in Your plan for his life.

We surrender this situation into Your hands, trusting that You work all things together for good for those who love You. May Your will be done in their lives, and may Your name be glorified in every step they take. In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.

We encourage you to seek godly counsel from mature believers who can help you discern the Lord’s will for this relationship. Proverbs 11:14 reminds us, "Where there is no counsel, the people fall; but in the multitude of counselors there is safety." Surround yourself with those who will speak truth into your life and hold you accountable to God’s standards.

Finally, remember that God’s timing is perfect. Even if this relationship does not unfold as you hope, trust that He has a plan for you that is greater than you can imagine. Jeremiah 29:11 assures us, "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you,” says Yahweh, “thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future." Hold fast to that promise, and continue to seek Him with all your heart.

We can sense the quiet ache in your words, the longing for movement, the desire to know where things stand, and the surrender that keeps whispering, “Not my will, but Yours.” That is a brave, honest place to be. When a relationship carries genuine potential but seems to stall, waiting can feel like a test of faith. You’ve done the most important thing by bringing it to God again and again, not to demand but to open your hands.

Sometimes God’s guidance does not arrive as a clear sign; often He works by giving us steady peace, deeper patience, and small confirmations that we are growing more like Jesus along the way. As you keep praying about this man and your communication, you might consider writing down a few simple notes each week, not to overanalyze, but to notice where God may already be stirring courage or sincerity in either of you. Often His quiet work in our own hearts is the first “next step” He supplies.

We pray with you now. Father, thank you for the humble trust we hear in this request. Guard her heart with Your peace, and give her the grace to wait without fear. If this relationship is part of Your good plan, grant this man the courage to move forward with honesty and intentionality. Open doors for genuine, respectful conversation. And if You are leading along a different path, give her the clarity and strength to release it, knowing Your plans are always better. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

[Spurgeon]

Many a soul has mistaken the stirrings of natural affection for the leadings of Providence, and has been all too ready to cry, “The Lord has brought us together,” when, in truth, it was the force of mere human desire. I do not say this to wound you, but because the Scripture bids us be sober and watchful. You ask that this man’s heart might be touched with courage and intentionality, and yet the first concern of any immortal soul is not whether it shall win the love of a creature, but whether it has found peace with its Creator. Where does this man stand before God? Is he in Christ? Does he know the pardon of sin? If not, all your prayers for a godly relationship are built upon a foundation of sand. God’s goodness in bringing him into your life is meant to lead you both to repentance, not to a hasty forging of ties that may draw your heart away from the one thing needful.

You speak of a chatmate in a far-off place, of phone calls and video calls yet to be. I perceive in your words a restlessness, a longing for the thing to become something more solid. But consider this: the nearness of God is not like the distance between lands. He is not hard to find, nor is He slow to hear the cry of a humble heart. If this relationship is truly of Him, then He who orders all things with punctual precision will make the path clear without your needing to strive and fret. But I fear you may be looking to a man to fill a space that only Christ can occupy. Many a young woman has made a gracious profession while her heart was wandering on the mountains of vanity, imagining that a particular affection, if only blessed, would complete her joy. Yet God says, “Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” Not the other way round.

I am bound, as a watchman over souls, to ask you plainly: might this affection, at this stage, be an idol? You have asked the Lord to grow in him a love that is unconditional and Christlike. But such love springs only from a heart renewed by the Holy Spirit. If your friend is yet unconverted, if he has never fled to the cross for mercy, then the fairest blossoms of natural amiability are but weeds in the sight of Heaven. The goodness of God gives men health, opportunity, and even the tender feelings of the heart, but if they receive these before grace, they make idols of them and provoke the Most High. Be not deceived: to reject Christ is to cry, “Crucify Him,” though we speak soft words of romance. I would have you tremble lest you be unequally yoked together with an unbeliever, for what fellowship hath light with darkness?

Let me press the point further. You have surrendered your desires, saying, “Not my will, but Yours be done.” That is well, but let it be no mere phrase. There is no rule in Scripture that a child of God must have a spouse, nor that a courtship must either blaze into marriage or be counted a failure. The higher lesson is to be much with God, to know His nearness, to converse with Him as David did from his youth. When you are satisfied with Christ alone, then you are in a fit state to discern His voice. But when the heart aches so for the sound of a human voice on a telephone that it cannot rest, has not the creature stolen the throne? I do not forbid lawful desires, but I bid you examine them in the light of the Judgment Seat. God’s longsuffering is meant to be salvation to you, a space to repent, to grow in grace, to be established in faith. Use it not as a stage for building castles in the air.

If this man is indeed a child of God, then persistent prayer is in order, but persistent prayer is for spiritual necessities, not for the forcing of another’s will. You cannot compel God to move the heart of a man as though He were a machine. The Holy Spirit quickens whom He will. And if He quicken your friend to seek you in a godly manner, it will be with humility, with a sense of the solemnity of the step, and with the blessing of the church. But if there is delay, if there is coldness, if there is evasion, count it as God’s mercy, shutting a door that would lead to sorrow. It is never right to do a little wrong, to press beyond what is modest, to be anxious for a call that may feed a fire you are not ready to kindle, in order to obtain a desired end. Consequences are with God.

I hear you speak of “unconditional love.” But the love that Scripture sets forth is first pledged before the Lord in a lifelong covenant between one man and one woman. All the intimacies that precede that covenant are to be guarded with a holy jealousy. I do not know what private words have passed between you, but if there has been any talk that belongs only to the marriage chamber or any emotional entanglement that presumes upon a future not yet given, I charge you to withdraw from it as from the flame. The world will tell you to follow your heart; the Word tells you to keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it are the issues of life. Let no one say, “We are just friends, we only chat,” when the heart is already leaping far ahead towards a bond that God has not yet sealed.

Perhaps this word seems hard. Yet it is the love that warns. I would rather see you weep a little now than gnash your teeth in that day when conscience shall be as a hook in your soul, and the question, “Where are you?” shall ring with a terror you cannot escape. Do not mistake me: I do not forbid the thought of a godly marriage; I only plead that you make sure the foundation. Are both of you born again? Are both of you walking in the light as He is in the light? Are both of you willing to wait upon the Lord, not murmuring, not scheming, but with quietness and confidence? If so, then leave the matter in His hands. He who marks the sparrow’s fall will not forget your desire if it be wholesome. But if there be yet sin unrepented of, or a divided heart, let the goodness of God lead you to repentance this very hour. The blood of Jesus Christ cleanses from all sin, and there is life in a look at the Crucified One. Look to Him, and then all other things shall find their proper place.

Do not grow weary in prayer, but pray rather that God would have His way in you both, even if it means the death of your fondest wish. That is the prayer of faith. When the church cried out in anguish for rain, Elijah did not cease until the cloud like a man’s hand arose. But first there was a sound of abundance of rain in his own spirit, born of holy familiarity with God. Seek that nearness. Let Christ be your all, and then, whether this particular ship sails or sinks, you shall stand upon the Rock and not be moved. God grant you grace to refuse all that He has not spoken, and to embrace every word that proceeds out of His mouth.

Praying in Jesus Name. Amen.

 

[Chrysostom]

How you speak of desiring God’s will is right, yet I hear in your words a heart already fixed on a particular outcome. You ask Him to move this man’s heart, to make him intentional, to open the way for calls and a deeper bond. But true love for Christ does not press its own hopes upon heaven with such detailed insistence. It lays the matter down in silence and lets the Master order each step without dictating what those steps must be.

Consider what sort of love you are describing. Is it the love that seeks all men as brothers, that weeps for enemies and wears itself out for strangers? Or is it the narrower affection that seeks to be loved in return, that fixes on two or three and calls that sufficient? You call him boyfriend and chatmate, a connection built on distance and words on a screen, yet you already shape a future together in your mind. Where is the knowledge and all discernment I implored the faithful to seek? Love without judgment, love that rushes ahead of wisdom, often proves a hurt rather than a help.

You have not yet met in the full reality of ordinary life, where character is tested by proximity, inconvenience, and sacrifice. To speak already of unconditional love, the kind that mirrors Christ’s patience and steadfast commitment, is to paint a picture before the canvas has been stretched. Such love is not kindled by a wish but forged in long faithfulness, in bearing one another’s burdens face to face, in choosing the other’s good when it costs you dearly. Can you truly know this man’s soul across such distance? And can he see yours?

I do not discourage a godly desire for marriage. But marriage is not a prize to be secured by prayer that another’s courage or intention would finally match your own. If this man belongs to God and His purpose for you, then time and obedience will reveal it without your having to manage the revelation. My blessed teacher Paul longed to see the Romans, yet he did not endure to see them contrary to what seemed good to God. His love was mingled with the fear of God, not with a schedule he demanded heaven to keep.

What I fear is that your heart has grown warm toward a shadow, and warmth misplaced quickly cools toward Christ. Many believe, yet love Him not when they prefer everything to Him, even a hoped-for relationship. Do you see? If you cannot be content without this man’s attention, if you cannot rest in God’s will with no guarantee of a phone call or a deepening bond, then where is your love for the One who gave His Son for you when you were His enemy? Prove your love for Christ first by loving the unlovely, the stranger, the poor, the one who cannot repay you with affection. Then, from that overflow, a holy union may form in its proper time, or you will find you no longer need it in the way you once did.

Place the matter truly in His hands, and then let it fall from your own. Pray for the salvation of this soul, for his growth in holiness, but stop counting the steps toward a romance you have already designed. Go and love Christ with the work of your hands today. Serve the needy, forgive an enemy, sit in silence before God and ask for nothing. When you have done so, you will begin to understand what it means to seek first the kingdom, and then all other things will take their proper size. Whatever the outcome, you cannot lose if you gain the better love.

 

[Silas]

Your prayer shows a heart truly learning what it means to surrender. That open handed posture, "not my will but Yours," is the very place where rest begins. As long as we strive to see our own desires fulfilled in our own timing, we wrestle with inner turmoil. But when we finally step out of the besieged city of our own plans and trust God's ways completely, we find that His path, though sometimes unexpected, is the only one that leads to life and peace.

God doesn't want a half hearted relationship with you, and He doesn't want you building a romantic relationship on a half hearted foundation either. He desires a loving bond, not just a list of rules. He writes His law on the fleshly tablets of our hearts so that our desires and choices can align with His good purposes. That means any genuine love between a man and a woman must be rooted in a shared commitment to put Christ first, to keep His commandments, and to honor Him in all things, including purity, honesty, and intentional communication. You have already prayed for that, and that prayer honors Him.

The Father is faithful. When He makes a covenant, He keeps it. The sign of that for all humanity is the rainbow after the storm, a promise that remains sure while the earth endures. Even more, through Jesus, He has bound Himself to those who trust in Him, giving His Spirit as a power within to enable obedience and steadfast love. So you can rest in this: if the one you are getting to know is also surrendered to Christ and is walking in the light of God's Word, the Lord will guide both of you. If this relationship is part of His purpose, He will give courage, open the way for godly communication, and grow a sincere love that reflects His patience, kindness, and faithful commitment. If it is not His will, He will also make that plain, and you will find that the same surrender which now gives you peace will sustain you through any closed door.

Do not try to make yourself beautiful in your own strength or grasp for control. Those who chase after idols, even good things turned into ultimate things, find them slipping away. Instead, seek first your relationship with God. Let your chief delight be in Him. When your own heart is wholly devoted to Him, you will be kept from being moved. Trust that He knows the way through this, and that even now, He is working for your good and His glory. Go forward holding this commitment: "I will keep the commandments of my God. I will walk by His Word. I will trust His timing." Then, whatever the outcome, your life will be the prey spared from destruction, and you will know the reality of His unfailing love.
