Relationship

[OCheerUp]

Hi Everyone,

I had met someone on a Christian dating site and we met in person and hit it off in January 2024. Things were going well and then he "pulled back." I think he has depression, I haven't spoken to him in 10 weeks. Two weeks ago I added him back on social media and he immediately began liking my photos and stories. I know it's silly but to me that shows that he is still interested in connecting.

Anyways, last night I sent a message asking if he wanted to talk on the phone at some point, and it's been 12 hours with no response. I ended up deleting the message. I feel stupid because I know that if this relationship is from God, HE will cause it to happen, but I was feeling so full of faith last night and confident that it was the right decision. I would move on but there is something in me that says ### is supposed to be in my life. I am embarrassed for how much I want this to work, and I have sought God for months daily. I cry daily still over this. I'm crying right now. I don't know why he pulled back. I know "God's rejection is God's protection" but I have had this strong sense of "God is the God of impossible" and have focused my faith on believing for a positive outcome, even if it's a solid friendship. The last message I sent to him back in June did call him out for his actions not matching his words. Again, I keep reading about scripture where God turned things around, relationships, people, situations that seemed hopeless. I keep reading online "Your Breakthrough is around the corner!" And at this point I would accept not having feelings for him anymore. I am so embarrassed for reaching out to him. I'm embarrassed for caring for someone and praying nonstop that God will make a way. I know relationships are a two-way street but I genuinely feel like this guy cares for me. There's a connection here and our hobbies and life goals match perfectly. I've never been more distraught in my life, and I was in an abusive relationship/marriage for 8 years and went through a divorce.

I don't know what to do. I feel hopeless about this situation. I have pleaded with God, prayed in tongues, journaled, sought counseling, called prayer lines. I feel pathetic for caring so much but I want this person in my life. If he didn't care, why would he have added me back online and started reaching out? I need God's help. I know this is so stupid there are so many other big life issues out there that people are facing and I am so grateful to God for my family, job, home, opportunities. It's just this one area that I am struggling so terribly in that I'm miserable and don't know what is wrong with me. I wish I could just disappear. When will God come through for me? When will he restore this relationship, or provide someone even better? Jesus help me.

Opisiasis, we understand your heartache and desire for a godly relationship. We want to remind you that God's ways are higher than our ways, and His thoughts higher than our thoughts (Isaiah 55:8-9, WEB). Let's align our hearts with His will and trust in His timing.

Firstly, we commend you for seeking God daily and expressing your heart to Him. Remember, God knows the desires of your heart (Psalm 37:4, WEB). However, we must also be mindful that God's plan for our lives may not always align with our desires. We need to trust that He knows what is best for us (Romans 8:28, WEB).

Regarding your relationship, it's important to remember that God desires that we have healthy, loving relationships that honor Him. If this man is indeed struggling with depression, he needs your prayers and support, but not at the expense of your emotional well-being. It's not healthy to pursue someone who is not actively pursuing you back. Remember, "A man shall leave his father and his mother, and shall be joined to his wife. They shall be one flesh." (Genesis 2:24, WEB). A godly relationship should be mutually supportive and loving.

We must rebuke the idea that your worth or happiness is tied to this relationship. Your identity is in Christ, and He loves you deeply. "For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord." (Romans 8:38-39, WEB).

Let's pray together:

*Heavenly Father, we lift up ### to You. We know that You see her tears and hear her cries. Lord, we ask that You comfort her heart and give her peace. Help her to trust in Your timing and Your plan for her life. If this man is part of Your plan for her, we pray that You would make it clear and that You would restore their relationship. But if he is not, we ask that You would heal her heart and help her to move forward. Give her the strength to wait on You and the faith to believe that You have the best in store for her. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.*

Lastly, remember that God is faithful. He promises to never leave you nor forsake you (Hebrews 13:5, WEB). Trust in Him, and He will make your paths straight (Proverbs 3:5-6, WEB). Keep praying, keep seeking, and keep trusting. God will come through for you in His perfect timing.

Lord Jesus please richly bless, protect and guide them. Please help them in accordance with your perfect will Father. Thank you and praise you. In your holy name I pray. Amen.

 

[ThankfulBC]

What are we ask that you bless this person with incredible wisdom and knowledge, that they would be able to discern because they lean on you because they listen to you what the path is. Lord, let us never forget that you are good and you give us everything that we need, everything we desire you have given us. Lord let them pray that they can see you in all their decisions and they would know that it’s you, not to mistake messages or trickery from the enemy as you. I pray that this person has an amazing and blessed life that they always seek you for guidance. They always seek you for the path that they’re supposed to take, and I pray that they would always see when you are showing them. In your amazing name I pray amen.

Bless me to trust You with all my heart, lean not to my own understanding, acknowledge You in all my ways, and allow You to direct my footsteps, actions, and words.

God heal me, body, soul, and spirit. Cleansed me of everything in my life that doesn't honor You or breaks Your heart. Transform and renew my mind. Bless me with love, power, and a sound mind. Let the mind that is in Christ Jesus be in me. God be with me as a mighty warrior. Let no weapon formed against me prosper. Protect me from all the plans of my enemies and the plans of the enemy of my soul. God all that I have asked of You, in this prayer, please do the same for the writer of the prayer, all those who love and care about me, pray Your best for me, and all those I love and care about. God please forever honor this prayer over each of our lives. God Thank You. Amen, so be it by faith. Prayer written by Encourager ###, M.A., Board Certified Professional Christian Life Coach.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
