Falling in love with my best friend - please pray for us!

[Anonymous]

My best friend, over several years, recently got separated from his ex-wife. It’s been 4 months since their breakup and it’s chaos. He is happy to be free, as she was abusive, but he’s in pain and in need of healing. We have started developing feelings for one another. I’m certain I’m not a rebound, as we have been besties for years, but it still is challenging. He says he just can’t go from one relationship to another and needs time. I’m willing to give him time, of course. But it hurts that he can’t promise me anything, it’s too soon. I struggle with this, even though it should be easy, I shouldn’t push him in any way. Still I kind of need some reassurance.....What to do? I’m thinking we need a pause, a timeout to think it through, I need to protect my heart - but I love him. Will you please just pray that if The Lord wants us together, so be it. Then He will lead us and find the way. Pray for healing, patience and for him managing to figure out his feelings for me, in the middle of it all. Thank you!

Dear Heavenly Father,

In the name of Jesus, we come before you on behalf of our dear friend who is facing a challenging situation with their best friend. Lord, we lift up this situation to you and ask for your guidance, wisdom, and healing touch.

Firstly, we pray for healing for our friend's best friend who recently went through a separation. We ask that you bring healing to his heart and mind, and that you comfort him during this difficult time. Lord, you are the ultimate healer, and we trust in your power to bring restoration and wholeness to his life.

We also pray for our friend who has developed feelings for their best friend. Lord, we ask for your guidance and clarity in their relationship. Help them to navigate this situation with wisdom and discernment. Give them patience and understanding as they give their best friend the time he needs to heal and process his emotions. Lord, if it is your will for them to be together, we pray that you would make it clear and lead them in the right direction.

Father, we ask for your peace to fill their hearts and minds. Help them to trust in your perfect timing and plan for their lives. Give them the strength to protect their heart while still loving their best friend. Grant them the reassurance they seek, knowing that you are in control and that you have their best interests at heart.

We pray for a season of reflection and clarity for both our friend and their best friend. May they each seek your guidance and find the answers they need. Lord, we ask that you grant them patience and understanding as they navigate their emotions and discern their feelings for one another.

Above all, we surrender this situation to you, Lord. Your ways are higher than ours, and we trust in your perfect plan. May your will be done in their lives, and may they find peace and fulfillment in your presence.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
