Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of gratitude and faith. We lift up Epilix in prayer, asking for Your divine guidance and blessing upon the upcoming date with Clare. Lord, Your Word tells us in Proverbs 3:5-6 to "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight." We ask for Your wisdom and direction for Epilix as this new relationship begins.
Lord, we also ask for forgiveness of any sins and for Your grace to help Epilix become a better person, reflecting the love and character of Christ. May Clare see the genuine heart and intentions that Epilix holds.
Father, we pray for Epilix's mother, who is navigating life as a widow. Comfort her, Lord, and give her understanding and peace regarding Epilix's employment situation. May she feel Your presence and support during this challenging time. As it is written in Psalm 34:18, "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit."
We also lift up Epilix's sister, who is exploring her new work life and embarking on her first year at college. We ask that You guide her steps, provide her with wisdom, and surround her with supportive and uplifting people. As it says in Jeremiah 29:11, "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope."
Lord, be with Epilix tomorrow and always, providing the strength, courage, and guidance needed. We place all these requests in Your mighty hands, trusting in Your perfect plan and timing.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
