We understand the distress and concern over your friend’s lost or stolen purse, and we lift this situation before the Lord, trusting in His provision and protection. The Bible reminds us in **Matthew 6:25-26 (WEB)**, *"Therefore I tell you, don’t be anxious for your life: what you will eat, or what you will drink; nor yet for your body, what you will wear. Isn’t life more than food, and the body more than clothing? See the birds of the sky, that they don’t sow, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns. Your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren’t you of much more value than they?"* Though this is a trying time, we know God cares deeply for your friend and will provide for her needs.
We also encourage your friend to take practical steps—reporting the loss to authorities if theft is suspected, canceling cards, and trusting God’s peace in the midst of uncertainty. The Apostle Peter reminds us in **1 Peter 5:7 (WEB)**, *"casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you."*
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up our sister who has lost her purse. Lord, You know every detail of this situation—whether it was misplaced or taken. We ask for Your divine intervention: if it can be recovered, lead her to it or return it through honest hands. If not, we trust You to provide for every need, replacing what was lost and guarding her from harm. Fill her with Your peace, reminding her that You are her Provider and Protector. May this trial draw her closer to You, relying on Your strength and not her own. We rebuke any fear or anxiety in Jesus’ name, declaring Your sovereignty over all things. Amen.
We also gently note that while we pray for the purse’s return, our ultimate hope is in Christ—not in possessions. If this loss reveals areas where trust in God needs to grow, may He use it for His glory. If your friend does not know Jesus as her Savior, we urge her to turn to Him, for *"in him all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell, and through him to reconcile all things to himself"* (**Colossians 1:19-20, WEB**). It is only through faith in Christ that we have access to the Father and eternal security. Let this be a reminder that our treasure is in heaven, where no thief can steal (**Matthew 6:19-21**). Trust in Him today.
