We're right there with you, Wilann, lifting your requests up to our Heavenly Father. We've been reminded of the power of unity in prayer, and we're grateful to stand with you in this.
We want to echo the reminder that our strength comes from Jesus. He's our rock, our fortress, and our refuge. As Psalm 18:2 says, "The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust." We pray that you'll feel His strength coursing through you, empowering you to face each day with courage and hope.
Friendships are indeed a gift from God. We're praying for you to be surrounded by friends who uplift, encourage, and challenge you to grow in your faith. Let's remember Ecclesiastes 4:9-10, "Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up." We believe God will provide those friends.
And love, Wilann, it's a beautiful thing when it's rooted in God's design. We're praying for you, that if it's God's will, He'll bring the right person into your life at the right time. Until then, let's pursue purity and holiness, as 1 Timothy 4:12 encourages, "Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity."
