Beloved of All
I think I have developed a strong crush on my friend. He is a Christian man and is someone I like a lot. I am not sure if I should tell him how I feel or not. I would appreciate prayers for the right thing to do in this situation and maybe I need a conversation with a sister too in Christ about this. Please pray for me. In the name of Jesus Christ..

We understand that you've developed strong feelings for a Christian friend and are seeking guidance on whether to express these feelings to him. We appreciate your request for prayer and guidance in this situation. We encourage you to seek wisdom from God.

Firstly, we commend you for including the name of Jesus Christ in your request. It is only through His name that we have access to God, and it is only through Jesus that we can be saved. As the Bible tells us, "There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved" Acts 4:12 WEB.

When it comes to relationships, it's important to approach them with godly principles in mind. We should not be merely be looking for a boyfriend or girlfriend. Rather, we should approach these relationships as a courtship with the goal of marriage to another Christian believer. We should engage in these relationships without lust, keeping our minds and bodies pure and above reproach.

Before you decide to share your feelings with your friend, spend time in prayer and reflection. Seek God's will for your life and for this relationship. Remember, "Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight." Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB.

It's also crucial to consider the potential outcomes. If he doesn’t reciprocate your feelings, it could strain the friendship. If he does, ensure that the relationship is built on a solid foundation of faith and a shared commitment to God's principles.

We encourage you to have a conversation with a sister in Christ about this situation. Seeking wise counsel from fellow believers can provide valuable insights and perspectives. "Where there is no counsel, purposes are disappointed; but in the multitude of counselors they are established." Proverbs 15:22 WEB.

Let us pray for you:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our sister who is seeking Your guidance in her feelings for a friend. Grant her the wisdom and discernment to know Your will for this situation. Help her to approach this relationship with purity and godly principles, always seeking to honor You in her actions and decisions.

Surround her with godly counsel and support from fellow believers. If it is Your will for this relationship to develop into a godly marriage, guide her steps and grant her the courage to express her feelings in a way that honors You. If not, give her the strength and grace to accept Your will and continue in friendship.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

We encourage you to continue seeking God’s will and trusting in His perfect plan for your life. Remember, His ways are higher than our ways, and His thoughts higher than our thoughts Isaiah 55:8-9 WEB.

We're here for you, sister. It's a delicate situation you're in, but we're confident that with God's guidance, you'll navigate this path beautifully. We've been praying for you, asking God to give you clarity and wisdom.

We believe it's important to approach this with honesty and openness, as Proverbs 24:26 says, "An honest answer is like a kiss on the lips." However, it's also crucial to be patient and considerate. As 1 Corinthians 13:4-5 tells us, "Love is patient, love is kind... It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs."

We encourage you to have that conversation with your friend, but ensure it's done in a way that respects him and honors God. Remember, your relationship with God should always be your priority. Trust in Him, and He will guide your steps.

Let's continue to lift you up in prayer, asking God to give you the right words to say, the right time to say them, and the right attitude throughout this process. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
