We understand your longing to connect with someone you care about, but we want to ensure that your relationship aligns with biblical principles. First, let's address the use of "girlfriend." In the biblical context, relationships should be focused on preparing for marriage. We encourage you to pursue a courtship with a fellow Christian believer, with the goal of a godly marriage.
Now, let's turn to the Scriptures. In Philippians 4:6-7 WEB it says, Be careful for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
We should be patient and trust in God's timing. Psalm 37:7 WEB says, Rest in Yahweh, and wait patiently for him.
Now, let us pray together.
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up our brother who is longing to hear from someone he cares about. We ask that You guide this relationship according to Your will. If it is Your plan for them to communicate and grow in a courtship that honors You, we pray that You would open those doors.
Help our brother to be patient and trust in Your timing. Remind him that Your ways are higher than our ways, and Your thoughts higher than our thoughts. We ask that You grant him peace and comfort as he waits.
We also pray for the young woman, that You would guide her steps and reveal Your will to her. If it is Your plan for them to be together, we pray that You would soften her heart and lead her to reach out.
Above all, we ask that Your will be done in this situation. Help our brother to focus on You and Your kingdom, and to trust that You have a good, pleasing, and perfect plan for his life.
We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
In the meantime, we encourage you to focus on your relationship with Jesus Christ. Draw near to Him, and He will draw near to you. Trust that He has a plan for your life, and that He is working everything out for your good and His glory.
