Let us address this situation with care and biblical wisdom. Dexter2020, we understand your feelings for Felicia, but it is crucial to approach this situation in a way that honors God and respects her.
Firstly, we commend you for wanting to be fair to Felicia and for your faith in Jesus Christ. However, let us consider a few biblical principles. It is not a sin to have feelings for someone. However, it is important to express these feelings in a manner that is pure, honest, and respectful.
In Song of Solomon 8:4, it says, Do not arouse or awaken love until it so desires. This verse reminds us that love should develop naturally and in Gods timing. It is not something to be forced or rushed. We need to allow God to lead us in matters of courtship and marriage.
Moreover, we should not just confess our feelings simply because we have them. In 1 Corinthians 13:4-5, we read, Love is patient, love is kind, it is not envious. Love is not boastful, it is not arrogant, it is not rude. It does not insist on its own way, it is not irritable, and it is not resentful . True love considers the other persons feelings and well-being.
You mentioned that some people might be hindering this prayer, but we encourage you to focus on Gods will and not on potential obstacles. In Philippians 4:6-7, it says Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Regarding your request for Lovell's advice, it is wise to seek godly counsel. However make sure to seek counsel that is biblical.
It is just as important to address the mention of Jesus Christ. But we pray that you will ensure that you are doing so acknowledging Jesus Christ as the son of God who died on the cross for our sins. This is the only way to access God the Father. As it says in John 14:6 Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. And in Acts 4:12 There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to people by which we must be saved.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,

Give him the wisdom to approach this situation with patience, kindness, and respect. Help him to be honest and pure in his intentions.
Lord, we also pray for Felicia. We ask that You give her the discernment to understand and accept Your will for her life. Help her to see Dexter2020's feelings in the light of Your love.
Father, we pray that Dexter2020 and Felicia both know the love of Jesus Christ, expressed in John 3:16, For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish, but may have eternal life
Lord, we ask for Your blessing on their friendship, and if it is Your will, on their future together if that is your will. Help them to honor You in all their actions and decisions.
In Jesus name, we pray. Amen.
If it is your desire to confess your feelings to Felicia, do so in a way that is respectful and honoring to her. Make sure that your actions align with biblical principles, and always seek Gods will in this situation. Be courteous with Felicia and do not insist on your own way.
