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...

Increase my Thankfulness

"Give thanks in all circumstances; this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus." - 1 Thessalonians 5, 18. Dear Lord, please increase my thankfulness. Help me to open my heart to You so I could seek You in the midst of my circumstances. Open my eyes to see the signs of Your unseen presence in my life. Allow me to find You in myriad tiny details  as well as in the big picture of my life.  Grant me to notice all my blessings - small and large -  and to always thank You for them.  Thank You so much for Your unfailing Love.  Amen. 

God Works While We Wait

"W ait for the Lord, be strong and let your heart take courage; yes, wait for the Lord. " - Psalm 27, 14 Being honest, we all hate to wait. That is because most of us consider waiting like wasting time. But it's not so with our God, we just need to remember that good things are worth waiting and God only wants good things for us: " If you, then, evil as you are, know how to give your children what is good, how much more will your Father in heaven give good things to those who ask him! " - Matthew 7, 11. God uses waiting to change us, He wants us to learn how to follow Him and put down all our doubts, worries and fear. While we wait we need to relinquish the control to Him in order to experience His love and peace, and remember that even when we are unable to see what He is doing, God is always working on the events to accomplish His purposes for our lives. We only need to trust in His unfailing love for us, knowing that waiting is never wasted when we...
