Entrusting ### ❤️❤️❤️

[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 heart’s longing and your desire to surrender this relationship to the Lord. Your prayer reflects a beautiful posture of humility and trust in God’s sovereignty, and we join you in seeking His perfect will. It is clear you love the Lord and desire to honor Him in this relationship, and we praise God for your faith and submission to His plan.

First, we must address the nature of this relationship. You refer to this man as your "boyfriend," which suggests a courtship that should be rooted in the pursuit of marriage. Scripture is clear that relationships between believers should be entered into with the intention of honoring God and reflecting His design for marriage. The Bible says 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?" If this man is not a believer in Jesus Christ, we must rebuke this relationship outright, as it cannot honor God or align with His will. If he is a believer, then your courtship should be marked by purity, intentionality, and a shared commitment to Christ as the foundation of your relationship.

We also notice that you have not mentioned whether this man shares your faith in Jesus Christ. If he does not, we must strongly caution you against continuing in this relationship. The Bible warns us not to be "unequally yoked" with unbelievers, as this will only lead to heartache and disobedience to God’s commands. If he is a believer, then we encourage you to pursue this relationship with the goal of marriage, ensuring that both of you are seeking the Lord first and foremost. Proverbs 3:5-6 reminds us, "Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight."

We must also address the physical and emotional boundaries in your relationship. If you and this man are engaging in any form of sexual intimacy outside of marriage, we must rebuke this sin directly. The Bible is clear that sexual immorality, whether fornication, adultery, or any other form of sexual sin, is contrary to God’s design. 1 Corinthians 6:18-20 says, "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." If this is an area of struggle, we urge you to repent and seek accountability with a trusted believer or mentor. Confess this sin to the Lord, and ask Him to cleanse you and give you the strength to walk in purity.

Now, let us lift this relationship up in prayer:

Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of gratitude for Your love and Your perfect plan for our lives. Lord, we lift up this relationship to You, asking that You would be at the center of it. Father, we pray that You would reveal Your will clearly to both of them. If this relationship is not aligned with Your purposes, we ask that You would close the door gently but firmly, and give them the grace to accept Your plan with peace and trust. If this relationship is Your will, Lord, we pray that You would strengthen it and grow it in a way that honors You.

Father, we ask that You would draw this man’s heart to You. If he does not know You as his Lord and Savior, we pray that You would open his eyes to the truth of the Gospel. Let him see his need for a Savior and surrender his life to Jesus Christ. If he is already a believer, we pray that You would deepen his faith and his commitment to living a life that honors You. Give him a heart that seeks You first, and a desire to pursue this relationship with purity, intentionality, and a focus on marriage.

Lord, we pray for wisdom and discernment for both of them. Help them to communicate with honesty, respect, and love. Guard their hearts from fear, doubt, and selfishness, and fill them with Your peace and Your truth. If it is Your will for them to move forward in this relationship, we ask that You would prepare their hearts for marriage, and that their union would be a reflection of Christ’s love for the Church.

Father, we also pray for protection over this relationship. Shield them from temptation, from the schemes of the enemy, and from anything that would draw them away from You. Help them to encourage one another in their faith and to walk in integrity and truth. Give them the strength to resist sexual immorality and to honor You with their bodies.

Lord, we surrender this relationship into Your hands. We trust that You know what is best for them, and we ask that You would lead them according to Your perfect will. Whether this relationship continues or comes to an end, we pray that they would find their ultimate satisfaction and joy in You alone. Help them to rest in the assurance that Your love never fails and that Your plans for them are always for their good and Your glory.

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

In closing, we encourage you to continue seeking the Lord in this season. Spend time in His Word, in prayer, and in fellowship with other believers who can speak truth and wisdom into your life. If this relationship is not God’s will, trust that He has something better in store for you. If it is His will, pursue it with intentionality, purity, and a shared commitment to Christ. Remember, your worth and identity are found in Him alone, not in any relationship or circumstance. As you wait on the Lord, He will renew your strength and guide your steps. Isaiah 40:31 says, "But those who wait for Yahweh will renew their strength. They will mount up with wings like eagles. They will run, and not be weary. They will walk, and not faint." Trust in Him, and He will direct your path.

Thank you for sharing this prayer with us. We can feel how much this means to you and how sincerely you’re seeking God’s leading. Your willingness to surrender, “not my will, but Yours be done”, is a real and steady place to be, even when uncertainty tugs at your heart. It takes courage to open your hands like that.

What strikes us is that you’re not asking for a quick fix; you’re asking for God’s will to be done, whatever that looks like. That kind of trust doesn’t make the waiting easy, but it does anchor you in something solid. You don’t have to figure everything out today. While you wait, it may be wise to gently and honestly ask him where he stands about moving forward, not to pressure him, but so you aren’t left in confusion. Practical clarity can be a gift you give each other, even if the answer isn’t what you hope.

In the meantime, keep bringing this to God the way you already are. He sees your desire for a relationship built on faith, honesty, and mutual honor, and He cares about those longings more than you know.

Lord Jesus, thank You for hearing this heartfelt prayer. We ask You to give this person deep peace that doesn’t depend on a particular outcome. Guide the heart of the man she cares about, and grant them both wisdom and purity in how they communicate. If it is Your will, open the way for genuine connection; if not, give her the grace to trust Your goodness in a different path. Hold her steady as she waits. In Your name, amen.

[Spurgeon]

The very essence of your prayer betrays a soul in earnest, yet a soul in danger of missing the weightier matter. You speak much of this relationship, of a phone call, of his intentions and your desires, but I hear too little of that single, solemn, all-consuming question: "Am I His, or am I not?" You are placing this entrustment in God's hands, which is right, but see to it that you are doing so as one already certain that God is your refuge, your eternal God who has said, "I will say to them which were not My people, Thou art My people."

You ask courage for him, but what of your own courage to say with Isaiah, "I will trust, and not be afraid"? To be forever scanning the horizon for a sign from a man is to walk by sight and not by faith. The heart that is afraid and then trusts is blessed, but the heart that trusts first and so rises above all fear, that is the far better portion. You pray, "Not my will, but Yours be done," yet your request is filled with the outlines of what you hope His will looks like. Lay down even the tracing of the outline. If it is God's will to open the way, He will do it without your anxiety to assist Him. If He thrusts out this prospect as an enemy to your soul's deeper communion with Himself, will you bless His name as loudly then as you are pleading for this mercy now? A dog will follow for a bone, but a true child of God will follow when the way is dark and the whip is felt.

You ask for a meaningful call, for sincerity and movement. But what is the meaning you seek? Is it not, in truth, a hunger for a creature to fill a space meant for the Creator? The soul that can say, "With my spirit within me will I seek Thee early", that soul is not lying awake longing for a video call; it is longing for the light of God's countenance. You are tempted to be satisfied with the mere shell of human affection when the kernel of divine communion lies neglected. Remember, without getting Him, without getting heart-work and spirit-work, without getting the soul and sustenance of it, all other blessings will leave you parched. The cry of the true Church in her hour of need is not first for altered circumstances, but for the sound of abundance of rain. Pray for that upon your own soul, and so shall your steps be ordered.

Consider the danger of dictating to God what His providential will must look like. You say, "If this relationship is part of Your purpose... help him become intentional." But God's purpose may be to teach you that His grace is sufficient without this man's intentions. It may be His will for you to learn, in a long and lonely waiting, that He alone is your refuge and underneath are the everlasting arms. Those arms are most surely felt when the soul is on the pinnacle of the temple, in a place of great elevation of mind where a fall would be ruinous, or in the valley of disappointment where no human voice is heard. Is God not teaching you even now? The believer who pores over the Scriptures will find God teaching him wondrous things, and that discipline is worth a thousand answered requests that leave the soul shallow.

I charge you, cease from this incessant pleading for a particular outcome and plead instead for conformity to Christ. If you would be saved from the love of sin and the fear of man, begin a new and holy surrender. Deal with God plainly. If He says He will save you if you trust Him, then trust Him now with this single, undivided trust that does not need to know the next chapter. To wish for honest gain in human love is natural, but our best profit consists of doing God's will, and that will may be for you to walk a path quite alone with Him. God will give nothing but judgment to those who will not even believe His bare Word. But to the soul that clings to it, the promise stands: "I will have mercy upon her that had not obtained mercy." Let that be enough. Let your heart say, "Thou art my God," whether the phone rings or forever falls silent. That is the sure refuge; all else is sand.

[Chrysostom]

You pour out many words, asking God to bless and guide a relationship with a man you call your boyfriend, a chatmate. You ask for courage, for a meaningful call, for intentional pursuit, and for Christlike love to grow between you. Yet I see in this a soul that seeks divine sanction for its own desires rather than divine truth to shape them. Where is the courageous prayer that asks first for purity and self-denial? When you speak of boldness, consider what boldness truly is. It is not the audacity to ask God to order a man's steps toward your affections. True boldness is Elijah standing before a king and a people rebelling against God's law, crying out, "How long will you go lame on both your thighs?" True courage is John the Baptist telling a ruler, "It is not lawful for you to have your brother's wife." This is the boldness that stems from a zeal for God's commandments, not from a hunger for emotional fulfillment. To treat the Lord of Heaven as an arranger of video calls and a tester of romantic intentions is to reduce His majesty to a servant of your earthly hopes.

You seek a divine communication, a sign, as if the Holy Spirit is given to you as a private oracle for the affairs of your heart. But the Spirit reveals truth, convicts of sin, and points always to Christ. You have the truth already. What need is there for a special revelation about a relationship that is not yet a marriage? The will of God is not a hidden path to be guessed at in such matters through feelings and circumstances. His revealed will is your sanctification: that you should abstain from sexual immorality, that you learn to control your own body in holiness and honor. Does your interaction with this man, as a boyfriend, build toward that holiness, or does it entertain the passions and the idle curiosity that inflames them? The communication of faith is made effectual not through fluttering hopes and long-distance intimacy, but through the knowledge of every good thing in Christ Jesus and the doing of good works. A dead faith is one that prays for a sign but does not obey the clear command to flee youthful lusts.

You say you surrender your desires, yet your entire prayer is a careful argument for why they should be granted. You ask God to give this man courage to move forward with you; but I ask, have you the courage to step back? Have you the courage to cease from a manner of relating that stirs up affection without rightful commitment? Consider Joseph of Arimathea, who had hidden his discipleship for fear, yet when the Lord was dead, he went boldly to Pilate and begged for the body. He risked his standing, his safety, and his reputation in a single act of devotion to the Lord he loved, not to gain a feeling, but to honor the One who gave Himself up. If your love for the Lord is of that sort, then prove it not by seeking a boyfriend's attention, but by guarding your own heart in chastity and truth until such a time as a man, in the clear light of day and the orderly way of God's people, seeks you for a lifelong covenant. The grace you need is not a sign about a chatmate; it is the grace of repentance, the grace to seek the Lord without any rival, and to find your deepest peace not in a relationship proceeding at your own direction, but in the unspeakable gift of Christ alone. The Lord gave His authority for building up, not for casting down, and a house is not built upon the shifting sands of private, romantic experimentation but upon the rock of obedience. Seek nothing less than that, and you will find a peace that no outcome with any man can give or take away.

 

[Silas]

In your prayer, you have already taken the truest first step: you have placed this relationship into the Lord’s hands and said, “Not my will, but Yours be done.” That kind of surrender is not weakness. It is the quiet confidence of a heart that knows God’s love cannot fail. When you abandon yourself to His wisdom, you honor Him deeply, because such trust declares that He is good even when you cannot see the outcome.

Before any human bond can be healthy, your relationship with God must be settled. He says, “You are My God.” That is the ground on which everything else stands. Out of that comes the fellowship of seeking Him early, before every anxious thought, before every hope for a phone call or a sign. He will not forsake those who seek Him. So keep your heart’s gaze fixed there, not on what another person may or may not do. Man’s heart is fragile, and even the best intentions can waver. But the Lord’s faithfulness is unshakable. He has made a covenant with you through Jesus Christ, and He will keep it perfectly. He cannot fail.

You mentioned longing for courage, openness, and sincerity in this connection. God will provide what is needed if this is His path. But be careful not to lean on this man as your security. It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man. Some people put their hope in a relationship to rescue them from loneliness or uncertainty, much like Israel looked to Egypt for help. But Egypt’s chariots cannot save. God calls you to trust His provision instead, and His arm is not too short. Do not fear that your future will slip away if you release your grip. If the Lord is building something, no misunderstanding can thwart it. If He is closing a door, it is because He has something better. His silence or His delays are not rejection; they are often His way of teaching you to rest in Him alone.

Remember that God treasures you. You are His inheritance, and He takes pleasure when you lean your whole weight on Him, not only when life is easy but when the waiting is hard. He will fulfill the desires of those who reverence Him, and He hears the cry of the humble. Keep lifting your hands in worship, not just in request. As you fix your heart on His kingdom and His righteousness, everything else will be ordered according to His perfect will. Whether this relationship grows into something lasting or gives way to another plan, you will be able to say, “My trust is in You, Lord, and I will not be ashamed.” Walk forward in that peace.
