Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before you in the name of Jesus, lifting up Antalik's prayer request to you. Lord, we ask that you would soften the heart of the person Antalik is reaching out to. You know the situation and the dynamics involved. We pray that you would touch their heart and help them to respond to the text message today. We ask that you would bring understanding and reconciliation in this relationship.
Father, we also pray for Joseph, who desires to see his little girl. We ask that you would intervene in this situation and remove any barriers that are preventing him from having access to his child. Lord, we know that you are a God of justice and compassion. We pray that you would make a way for Joseph to be reunited with his daughter.
We thank you, Lord, for your constant presence and guidance in our lives. We ask that you would strengthen Antalik, both physically and emotionally. Please grant them the energy they need and relieve them of any aches and pains they may be experiencing. We also lift up the request for Lee to ring at teatime. We pray for open communication and connection in that relationship.
Lord, we trust in your faithfulness and your ability to answer prayer. We thank you for your love and care for each one of us. May your will be done in these situations, and may your name be glorified. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
