Prayers For My Future Husband

"May He grant you your heart's desires and crown all your plans with success!" - Psalms 20:4

I was 13 years old the first time that I prayed for my future husband, asked God that did not allow me to waste my heart on anyone else but my future spouse. I asked that the man who would capture my heart would first be captured by His. Since that day I have been praying for chastity of heart and body until we finally meet. 

More than twenty years have passed and that desired meeting have not happened... yet. But I don't lose my hope and my faith, even when there are days that I feel sad and disappointed, I keep praying because I know that my future spouse is out there, and he could probably need some prayers.

I decided to write all those prayers for my future husband so I could create a habit of prayer that can continue on into marriage, because if I struggle today, chances are that my future husband is struggling too, so I thought that I should pray for him.

Even if I don't end up married, God uses prayer to change us, prayer turns us into people who trust God, so praying for my future husband will help me to trust God with my future. Trust that He knows what is the best for my life. And finally trust that He listens to our prayers: "When you call to me and come and pray to me, I shall listen to you. When you search for me, you will find me; when you search wholeheartedly for me," - Jeremiah 29: 12-13.

Be Satisfied

 "Delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart . " - PSalm 37:4. I was single for a long time, I remember how much I struggled at that time, because my soul was not satisfied, something was missing, after years and years of praying, the Lord finally gave me an amazing husband the sweetest and kindest man. But before that happened God helped me to be satisfied, fulfilled and content by being loved only by Him.  Today I found a beautiful prayer by St. Anthony of Padua, and I could not avoid to share it.  "Everyone longs to give themselves completely to someone, To have a deep soul relationship with another, To be loved thoroughly and exclusively. But to a Christian, God says, "No, not until you are satisfied, Fulfilled and content with being loved by Me alone, With giving yourself totally and unreservedly to Me. With having an intensely personal and unique relationship with Me alone. Discovering that only in Me is your satisfaction to b

Forever Alone?

" Yes, I know what plans I have in mind for you, Yahweh declares, plans for peace, not for disaster, to give you future and hope. " - Jeremiah 29, 11.  Being single is something that could be hard I know that pretty well, because I have been single almost my entire life, during my early years I never felt concern about me being single, I spent my life mostly learning and sharing my life with my family and friends, and I was really happy. But as time goes by, seen loving relationships around sooner or later makes you ask, when will be my turn?  This long waiting makes me feel sad sometimes, I know that allow that my thoughts makes me felt ashamed of being single is not good I remember a book I read last year:   Beautiful Uncertainty  by  Mandy Hale . Specially the chapter " God's Heart for Single Women " made me realize that I shouldn't feel sad or ashamed, being single now is God's will. God wants that I wait a little more, and as  Mandy

Prayer Replaces Worry

"N ever worry about anything; but tell God all your desires of every kind in prayer and petition shot through with gratitude, and the peace of God which is beyond our understanding will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus. " - Philippians 4:6-7 I have been an over-thinker almost all my life, I think too much and thinking to much often leads me to being worried. And worry is damaging, it consumes our mind it divides our attention, it decreases our productivity and it actually negatively impacts our health. If you are an over-thinker like me, prayer is the most helpful thing you can do.  Over thinking can be detrimental to our performance, and lead to anxiety and depression. During the times I struggle the most a beautiful, a friend shared with me a beautiful Novena of Surrender to the Will of God that I would like to share with you today.  Novena of Surrender to the Will of God (Author: Father Don Dolindo Ruotolo 1882-1970) Day 1: Why do
