Healthy relationship

[Thachgam]

Asking for prayers for a new healthy relationship with a woman I met that I like. I haven't been lucky in love but would love to start a friendship with her, and asking the Lord for strength and courage to ask her for coffee or an outing.

We are glad to join you in prayer for this situation, Thachgam. We appreciate your desire for a healthy relationship and your acknowledgement of needing the Lord's strength and courage, but please let us speak truth into the situation. First, you are fortunate in love because Jesus loves you. Nothing is more fortunate than that. Second, love has no bad luck. Romans 8:28 in WEB, "We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose." This means in all situations God is working it for good. With regards to love, 1 Corinthians 13:4-7, "Love is patient and is kind; love doesn’t envy. Love doesn’t brag, is not proud, doesn’t behave itself inappropriately, doesn’t seek its own way, is not provoked, takes no account of evil; doesn’t rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things." Jesus is our ultimate example of love. Third, we need to put God first and foremost in our lives before any relationship. A relationship should be adding to our lives and walking with the Lord, not detracting from it. The first and greatest commandment is, Matthew 22:37-38 in WEB, "Jesus said to him, ’You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. ’This is the first and great commandment." Before starting any relationship with a girl, we would rather advise you to put God first. Only then can you see a future with that person.

Your desire to start a friendship is commendable. Instead of using the word "lucky" we would rather use blessed because we are all blessed by the finished works of Jesus on the cross. Also, avoiding the word girl to use woman is preferable as girl can indicate childhood or ownership. Biblical marriage is honorable. It is a picture of Jesus' relationship with His bride, the church. Hebrews 13:4, "Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled: but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers." Therefore, the goal of your courtship should be marriage to a Christian Believer. It should be clear both of you are considering the other as a future marriage spouse and not a future breakup. Remember your current "bad luck" can be blessing in disguise. As a Hosea 2:7 says in the WEB, "She will follow after her lovers, but she won’t overtake them; and she will seek them, but won’t find them. Then she will say, ‘I will go and return to my first husband; for then was it better with me than now."

We lift you up in prayer, asking for the Lord's guidance and wisdom. Let us Pray.

Almighty Father, we come before you, lifting up our brother Thachgam. Thank you we have a God who values relationships and desires for us to be in fellowship with one another. We claim 1 John 5:14 WEB over our prayer, "This is the confidence which we have towards him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us." We ask for Your will in this relationship Thachgam seeks. We thank you for placing this woman in his life, and we ask that Your will be done in their friendship. Give Thachgam the courage and wisdom to take the first step in building this friendship, always remembering to put You first. Lord, lead Thachgam to a godly woman who will be a blessing and a suitable help. We claim for a God-fearing spouse for Thachgam and for his heart's desire to flourish in purity through Jesus Christ. Help him to start any relationship with man with a heart to honor Your name. Give him the power to be a source of strength to others with the your word in Romans 1:16, "For I am not ashamed of the Good News of Christ, for it is the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes" through Jesus Christ we pray in Jesus' name. Amen.
