Praying...

I was looking out the window spacing...and something random crossed my mind. I thought to myself, I should be praying. Praying for my future husband. I know it might sound odd, but I don't pray nearly as much as I should. I feel close to God in one sense, but in the other, He's like a friend I don't talk to. I was talking to a friend awhile back and she told me that it's something people do quite often, praying for their future spouse. Even though we don't know them, or we do and we don't know that it's them. I also remember talking to a friend I've had for years now, and a couple of years ago, we were discussing future husbands. Anyway, this isn't to discuss about my future husband, but praying for him. But when I did more research on it there were a lot of praying about yourself and him. So I decided I should start with myself.

God, I turn to you to ask for your help. Help me in putting off these feelings of longing. Help me wait for the proper time for marriage and a family. Lead me to find the one who You have chosen for me. Help me on this Yjourney to build friendships with those around me and with You, so I can be closer with You. When the time does come, You will be there and help me make one of the biggest decisions of my life, and You will help me know if the time has come and he is the one You have chosen for me. Teach me Lord to seek You and Your love first. Help me to remember on this journey of life, You are always there for me. Lead me, Lord, to do Your will for me and not my own. Amen.
