We understand the depth of your emotions and the longing in your heart, but we must first address something of great importance. Your prayer does not mention the name of Jesus Christ, and it is only through Him that we can approach God. As Scripture tells us, *"There is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus"* (1 Timothy 2:5, WEB). Without calling upon His name, our prayers lack the authority and access granted to us through His sacrifice. We also encourage you to reflect on whether you have placed your faith in Jesus Christ alone for salvation, for *"there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men, by which we must be saved"* (Acts 4:12, WEB). If you have not yet surrendered your life to Him, we urge you to do so today, repenting of your sins and trusting in His finished work on the cross.
Now, regarding your request, we must also address the nature of this "love" you speak of. The Bible defines love not merely as emotion or affection but as a commitment rooted in God’s truth and righteousness. If this relationship is outside the bounds of marriage—or worse, if it is with someone of the same sex—it is not the love God honors. Scripture is clear: *"Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed undefiled; but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers"* (Hebrews 13:4, WEB). Fornication, adultery, and homosexuality are sins that grieve the heart of God, and we must not pray for blessings upon what He has called unrighteous. If this is a courtship between a man and a woman seeking marriage, then we can pray for godly love to grow. But if it is anything else, we must urge you to repent and turn away from sin, for *"the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord"* (Romans 6:23, WEB).
If this is a godly courtship with marriage as the goal, we pray that your love would be rooted in Christ and that both of you would seek His will above all else. May your affection be pure, patient, and selfless, reflecting the love of Christ for His Church. We pray for her safety, that the Lord would guard her steps and protect her from harm, and that He would draw both of your hearts closer to Him. May your love be a testimony of God’s grace, and may He prepare you both for a marriage that honors Him.
But if this relationship is not aligned with Scripture, we must lovingly but firmly call you to repentance. God’s love is greater than any human affection, and His desire is for your holiness. *"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"* (1 Corinthians 6:18-20, WEB). Turn away from sin, and seek the Lord with all your heart. He will forgive, restore, and lead you into relationships that bring Him glory.
Father in heaven, we lift this person before You, asking that You would reveal Your truth to their heart. If this relationship is not pleasing to You, we pray for conviction and repentance. If it is a godly courtship, we ask that You would nurture it in purity and faith. Guard this woman’s safety, Lord, and let Your will be done in both of their lives. Draw them closer to You, and let their love—whether in friendship, courtship, or marriage—be a reflection of Your holiness. We ask this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

We've been thinking about you and the love you hold for her. It's clear that your feelings run deep, and we're here to support you in your prayer. We understand that love can be a powerful force, but we want to remind you that God's love is the most powerful force of all. In 1 John 4:7-8, we're told, "Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God, and knows God. He who does not love does not know God, for God is love."
We're praying for your love to be a reflection of God's love - pure, selfless, and enduring. We ask that God would bless your relationship, if it aligns with His will, and that He would guide both of your hearts towards Him. We're also praying for her safety, that God would watch over her and keep her from harm.
But remember, friend, God's love is not just about feelings. It's about obedience and holiness too. We encourage you to seek God's will in this relationship, and to trust that He knows what's best for you both. If there are any areas where you're not sure you're following God's path, we encourage you to seek His forgiveness and guidance.
Let's continue to lift this up to God together, trusting that He hears our prayers and will work all things together for your good, according to His purpose (Romans 8:28). In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

We have been lifting your heart before the Father these past days, praying that your love would be overwhelmed by the depth of your affection for her and that she would sense the security of your care even in the distance. How beautiful it is to see love poured out so selflessly—just as Christ loves His church. We’ve asked God to soften her heart to receive not only your love but also the peace that comes from knowing she is cherished by you *and* by her Heavenly Father, who holds her even closer than you can from afar.
If she has reached out, if doors have opened for reconciliation, or if you’ve simply felt the Lord’s comfort in the waiting, we’d love to rejoice with you in a praise report. Sometimes the answers come in quiet whispers—a text, a memory shared, or an unexpected assurance that she *does* know your heart. If the silence still feels heavy, though, we want you to know we’re still here, ready to stand with you again in prayer. The Lord collects every tear and hears every longing; He is faithful to complete the work He’s begun in both of your lives.
May you be encouraged today by this truth: love like yours reflects the Gospel, and God will not waste it. We’re praying for supernatural opportunities to demonstrate your devotion, for divine protection over her, and for patience and hope to guard your heart as you trust Him with this relationship. Keep seeking Him—He is the author of love stories far greater than we could write.
