We join you in lifting up your heart’s desires and struggles to our Heavenly Father, knowing that He hears and cares for every detail of your life. It is wonderful to see your passion for serving through puppet shows, volunteering, and your involvement in church activities—these are beautiful ways to glorify God and bless others. We also commend your heart to help your friends and those in need, as well as your desire to steward resources wisely for the sake of others. These are godly ambitions that reflect the love of Christ.
First, we want to encourage you in your walk with Jesus. You have rightly begun and ended your prayer in His name, for it is only through Christ that we have access to the Father. As Scripture reminds us, *"I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me"* (John 14:6, WEB). Your faith in calling upon Jesus is a testament to your trust in Him, and we rejoice in that.
Now, let us address a few things in your request with both encouragement and biblical clarity. You mentioned knowing someone with a boyfriend who has his own podcast. We want to gently remind you that the Bible calls believers to pursue relationships that honor God—specifically, relationships that align with His design for marriage between one man and one woman. If this boyfriend is not her husband, we urge you to pray for them, that if they are not married, they would either marry in a way that honors God or separate to avoid the sin of fornication. *"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). We do not say this to condemn but to call all believers—including ourselves—to holiness, for God’s ways are for our good.
You also mentioned experiencing discrimination, and we grieve with you over the pain this has caused. The Bible assures us that God sees and cares deeply about injustice. *"The Lord also will be a high tower for the oppressed; a high tower in times of trouble"* (Psalm 9:9, WEB). We pray that God would be your refuge and strength, that He would vindicate you, and that He would open doors for you to serve and work in ways that honor your gifts and accommodate your needs. Your desire for a flexible schedule that aligns with your ASD needs is valid, and we ask God to provide employers or opportunities that respect and value the unique way He has created you.
Your heart to provide for yourself and others is commendable, but we also want to encourage you to seek first God’s kingdom, trusting that He will provide for your needs. *"But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well"* (Matthew 6:33, WEB). While it is not wrong to desire financial stability, we caution against placing our hope in wealth, even if the intention is to help others. Money can be a tool for good, but it can also become an idol if we are not careful. *"But those who are determined to be rich fall into a temptation, a snare, and many foolish and harmful lusts, such as drown men in ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some have been led astray from the faith in their greed, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows"* (1 Timothy 6:9-10, WEB). Instead, we pray that God would give you contentment in all circumstances, whether in abundance or in need, knowing that He is your provider.
We also want to address your mention of wanting a "break" or success in your puppet podcast. It is good to have goals and dreams, but we must surrender them to the Lord, trusting His timing and will. *"Commit your works to the Lord, and your plans shall succeed"* (Proverbs 16:3, WEB). If this is something God has called you to, He will open the doors in His perfect time. We encourage you to continue serving faithfully where you are, using your gifts for His glory, and trusting that He will exalt you in due time. *"Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time"* (1 Peter 5:6, WEB).
Lastly, we want to affirm your heart for those with blindness and other needs. Your compassion reflects the heart of Christ, who came to serve and give His life for others. We pray that God would use you mightily in this area, whether through financial means, prayer, or hands-on service.
Now, let us pray together for you:
Heavenly Father, we lift up our brother/sister to You, thanking You for the unique gifts and passions You have placed within them. Lord, we ask that You would guide their steps as they serve through puppet shows, volunteer work, and their involvement in the church. Give them wisdom and creativity as they seek to honor You in all they do.
Father, we pray for provision—a seasonal job that meets their financial needs and accommodates their ASD requirements. Open doors for them, Lord, and grant them favor with employers who will value their contributions. We ask that You would provide not just enough, but abundantly, so they can be a blessing to others, just as they desire.
Lord, we also lift up their heart’s desire for a puppet podcast. If this is Your will, we pray that You would make a way for it to come to fruition in Your perfect timing. Give them patience and contentment as they wait on You, trusting that You are working all things together for their good.
We pray for protection over their heart and mind, especially in the face of discrimination and past hurts. Heal any wounds, Lord, and fill them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. Remind them that they are fearfully and wonderfully made, and that their worth is found in You alone.
Father, we ask that You would guard their heart against the love of money or the pride of life. Instead, fill them with a desire for Your kingdom and righteousness, knowing that You will provide all they need. Give them a spirit of generosity and wisdom in stewardship, that they may use their resources to bless others and advance Your kingdom.
We also pray for their friends, especially those in relationships that do not honor You. Convict hearts, Lord, and bring repentance where needed. May all their relationships—including future ones—be rooted in Your truth and glory.
Lastly, we thank You for their heart for the blind and those in need. Use them mightily, Lord, to be Your hands and feet in this world. Give them opportunities to serve and make a difference, all for Your glory.
We ask all these things in the precious and mighty name of Jesus, our Savior and Lord. Amen.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
