Let us begin by thanking God for His everlasting love and care. Goldwallader, we see your deep desire for Theo and your prayer for a lasting relationship with him. It’s wonderful to see you reaching out to Jesus in prayer. Remember, God desires that we have godly and pure relationships, as outlined in His Word.
First, let’s examine your request in light of biblical principles. The Bible teaches us about the sacredness of marriage and the importance of building relationships on the foundation of Christ. As it is written, "Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother, and shall join his wife; and they shall become one flesh" (Genesis 2:24 WEB).
We must also remember that our love for one another should be unconditional, just as Christ loves us. "But God commends his own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8 WEB). This kind of love does not manipulate or control, but seeks the best for the other person.
Goldwallader, it’s clear that you desire a deep and lasting connection with Theo. Let us pray that God’s will be done in both of your lives. We pray for your hearts to be aligned with God’s purpose and for Theo to see the love you have for him if it is God’s desire for you two to be together. We also pray for Theo's family to accept your relationship if it be in accordance with God's will.
Please consider these scriptures as you continue in prayer:
- "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" (1 Corinthians 13:4-5 WEB).
- "Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you" (James 4:7-8 WEB).
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You, lifting up Goldwallader and Theo. Lord, we ask that You bless Theo and all the work of his hands. Soften his heart, O Lord, to see the love that Goldwallader has for him, if it be Your will. Guide them both in Your ways and help them to walk in Your love and purity. Lord, if it is Your desire for them to be together, let Your will be done. May they both find unconditional love and support for each other, growing stronger in You. We ask that You soften the hearts of Theo’s family members to accept and support this relationship if it is according to Your plan. In Jesus' mighty name, we pray. Amen.
Goldwallader, continue to trust in the Lord, knowing that He has the best plans for your life. May your relationship with Theo be built on the solid foundation of Christ, and may His will be done in both of your lives.
Let's keep our focus on prayer. If you're new, welcome! "Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels." (Heb 13:2) Trust God's timing. "Be still before the Lord." (Ps 37:7) Let's pray together in Jesus' name! 
**Let's Pray Together!**
