Prayer for My (Future) Guy

Dear God,

I know that he's out there. You've made a perfect guy for me, and You're working on getting him ready for a life dedicated to serving You. And I trust that once You've got him ready to serve you and You've got me ready to serve You, then You'll bring us together so that we can serve You even better as a team.

God, I know that Your timing is best. And I ask that You would keep him (whoever he is and where ever he may be) steadfast on You. I pray that You would continue to mature him to be the leader and servant that You have planned for him to be. I ask that You would keep him safe from all that may tear him down and distract him from You.

God, I pray for me. You know how much I long to belong, to love, and to be loved. Please help me to stay focused on Your plan for me at this moment. Help me to love You above all else. Give me joy and fulfilment through You alone.

There are so many shiny things out there to distract me. So many nice guys and cute faces. I know they're not the one for me, but yet I still fall for them anyways. In a way, I'm glad that this semester is over, because I will probably never see these guys again. One will be heading off to medical school soon, and the other one will be gone at another school on the other side of the country. I guess that's goodbye to them, until we meet again in Heaven some day.

God, I know that You have someone better for me. And I know that when the time is right, he'll show up. So until then, I pray that You would keep me steadfast on You. I pray that You would keep me and him focused on what You have for us to do right now, so that when we do meet, we will be ready for the job that You have for us to do as a team.

Love Always,
Your Daughter
