Dear MelissaRae, we join you in lifting up your concerns to our Heavenly Father. We are grateful that you have come before the Lord in Jesus' name, as it is through Him that we have access to God's throne of grace (Hebrews 4:16 WEB).
We commend you for seeking God's will for your life and for desiring to guard your heart, as Proverbs 4:23 WEB tells us, "Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it is the wellspring of life." It is good to surrender the hurts and broken pieces from your past marriage to the Lord, trusting that He has a beautiful plan for your life (Jeremiah 29:11 WEB).
We pray together:
*Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up our sister MelissaRae. Lord, we ask that You help her to forgive completely and to let go of any bitterness or resentment, as Ephesians 4:31-32 WEB tells us, "Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you."*
*Lord, fill MelissaRae with Your patience, kindness, tender-heartedness, gentleness, and submission to Your will. Help her to remember that she is a new creation in Christ, and that the old things have passed away (2 Corinthians 5:17 WEB). Give her strength to speak only words that build up and do not tear down (Ephesians 4:29 WEB).*
We also encourage you, MelissaRae, to continue to trust in the Lord, believing that He is faithful to help you and to heal your heart. Remember, God's love for you is unfailing, and His mercies are new every morning (Lamentations 3:22-23 WEB).
Lastly, we want to remind you that God's design for marriage is a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman (Matthew 19:4-6 WEB). As you continue to heal and grow, we pray that if it is God's will, He would bring a godly husband into your life, according to His perfect timing.
May the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, guard your heart and your mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7 WEB). We stand with you in prayer, believing that God is working all things together for your good (Romans 8:28 WEB). Amen.
