Prayer For Restoration Of Friendship

[Sanctified010]

Hey everyone. Well I wanted to post this message to ask for your prayers. About 8 months ago, I essentially lost a friendship with my best friend. We would talk every day, I loved him like a brother and we were very close. He began to waver in areas in his life when his girlfriend broke up with him, and I potentially became too forceful with trying to encourage him to make good decisions. I was never judgmental or critical. But I told him how I felt. One night about 8 months ago I knew he was going to make a poor decision. My suspicions were confirmed the next day when I found out I had been correct simply by what numerous other credible sources told me without me even asking. I confronted him about it (lovingly) and he lied to me. And continued to lie to me. We eventually just stopped talking because he grew more and more distant and I only became angry because of his dishonesty. I tried in multiple ways to try to encourage him to just be honest with me an he refused to do so. A couple of weeks ago he broke silence and I again attempted to repair. I apologized and explained my thoughts to him, only to be ignored and not to hear from him since. This has deeply hurt me, not only because I lost my brother, but because I know he has surrounded himself with poor influences and is living his life in a way inconsistent with how he knows he should and has become distant from God. He isnt the same person he used to be. My prayer is that his heart would soften, he would return to God and that our friendship could be fully restored and stronger than ever. I am a man of faith, but I have been incredibly discouraged about this situation as I knew I've done everything I could possibly do, it's been months, and only God can repair this situation now. Thank you all.
