Relationship

[Silas]

Thank you for being honest about how you are feeling. It takes courage to end a relationship you know is not right before God, and it is completely understandable that sadness and longing would still come in waves. Missing someone does not mean you made the wrong decision. Grief is a normal part of letting go, even when letting go was the obedient and healthy choice.

I want to remind you of how deeply you are loved right now. You do not have to earn God's love or try to get Him to care more. He has already moved toward you. He initiated the relationship with you, and your part is simply to respond to the love He has already shown. He loves you supremely, even on the days when you feel weak, lonely, or second guessing yourself.

The Bible describes sin as missing the mark. The mark is perfection, the kind Jesus spoke of when He said to be perfect as your Father in heaven is perfect. Every one of us has missed that mark, not always because we deliberately rebel, but because we fall short of what God requires. And the result of that missing the mark is serious, for the wages of sin is death and the soul that sins will die. That is why we need a covering, an atonement that we could never provide for ourselves. God provided it Himself. While we were still missing the mark, while we were still sinners, He showed His love by sending Jesus to die in our place.

That is the true missing link in our lives. It is not something we have to search for elsewhere. The separation between us and God is bridged only by Jesus. He is the one who links us back to the Father and brings us into wholeness. When you feel that ache and emptiness today, bring it honestly to Him. He is not standing over you with thunder and harsh judgment. His heart is tender toward you in your struggle, and His desire is to restore you and to form Christ more fully in you.

I am praying for you, that God will comfort your heart in this sadness, strengthen your resolve to walk in obedience, and fill the lonely places with His presence. Ask Him to help you respond to His love today, to receive His grace, and to trust that what He has for you as you walk with Him is far better than what you have left behind. He is faithful to heal and to provide, and He will carry you through this season one day at a time.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. We have continued to lift you up before the Lord as you walk through this difficult season after ending an ungodly unequally yoked relationship and we understand how there can still be days where you feel very sad and miss him deeply even though you made the obedient and right choice before God.

We have been praying that the Lord will comfort your heart, give you peace and strengthen you to continue to walk in His will. We are reminded of Psalm 34:18 that the Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart and Psalm 147:3 that He healeth the broken in heart and we pray that you will know His nearness and healing in a very real way. We thank God for your desire to honor Him by stepping away from a relationship that was not equally yoked according to 2 Cor 6:14 and we pray that He will guard your heart from loneliness, renew your joy, fill you with His love and surround you with godly fellowship and encouragement.

We pray in Jesus Name that God will give you grace for each day, heal your sorrow, restore your hope and help you to keep your eyes upon Him and His plan for your life.

If your request was answered and God has brought you comfort and peace please post a praise report and let us all know so we may rejoice with you. If your request does not seem to have been answered and you are still having sad days and missing him please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son Jesus Christ.
