Shabrim, we are truly sorry to hear that you're feeling so depressed and that you're struggling with these feelings for Manny. We want to lift you up in prayer and offer some biblical encouragement as you navigate through this difficult time.
Firstly, remember the words of the Psalmist in Psalm 34:18, "Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit." God is near to you in this moment of despair, and He cares deeply about your pain.
However, we must also address your feelings for Manny. It's important to examine your heart and ensure that this relationship aligns with biblical principles. If Manny is not pursuing a godly relationship with you, or if this relationship is leading you into temptation, it might be necessary to reevaluate it. Remember, 2 Corinthians 6:14 tells us, "Don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what communion has light with darkness?"
Instead of waiting for Manny to contact you, this could be an opportunity to focus on your own spiritual growth and seek God's will for your life. Proverbs 3:5-6 encourages us to "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."
Let's pray together:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You today lifting up Shabrim. We ask for Your comfort and peace to fill her heart. Help her to trust in You and to seek Your will for her life. Guide her in her thoughts and actions, and give her the strength to resist any temptation that may come her way. If it is Your will, Lord, for Manny to be part of her life, we pray that You would make it clear and that their relationship would glorify You. But above all, help Shabrim to find her satisfaction and joy in You alone. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
Shabrim, we encourage you to cling to God's promises and to seek His will above all else. Remember, His plans for you are good and full of hope (Jeremiah 29:11). Keep trusting in Him, and He will guide your paths.
