“I’ve lost my best friend…and I miss him like a hole in my heart.”You used to tell stories of how you were the most ‘bad ass’ kid at school, skipping from one rooftop to another, jumping from tree to tree, racing across playgrounds. No one could keep up with you…not even me! We had plans for our lives; we would find fame and glory, fortune and riches for ourselves…or at least you would. And it was always going to be together.
No matter how dire the circumstances, we know that God, our ever present source of strength in times of need, will hear the prayers we offer for a friend. We cannot always know how our prayers will be answered, but we trust in God’s infinite wisdom and boundless love for us all.
Prayers to My Friend is a bereavement resource center supporting you through prayers and inspirations. Inspirational Scriptures are provided that will help you teach your children about grief, dealing with grief as family members and friends, encouraging them and also helping them to understand the magnitude of loss. We wanted to create a tool that would be empowering and comforting in the midst of your grief journey.

God makes Himself known to us through the people we keep in our lives. Bible verses about friendship even teach us that friends can be just as close as family, so we must be wise in who we choose to surround us with. Whether it is International Friendship Day or a regular day for family, we can thank the Lord for blessing us with the people around us by offering a prayer for family and friends. It is through prayer we are able to show love no matter where we are.
As Psalm 133:1 teaches us, we experience greater joy and wonder when we honour God together. Offer a prayer for family and friends to help glorify God in unity.

I am never alone, because You are here with me through my loved ones. With so much gratitude in my heart, I offer You this prayer for family and friends in thanks. Thank You for showing me that love and care can be found anywhere, especially in the people in our lives, because I can now share my knowledge with those around me. Amen.

Prayers For Our Future Husbands
Our future husbands, we place you before our Lord and ask that He bless you with a wonderful marriage and a happy life together. May the love you share be strong and lasting. We pray that God will protect you from all harm and keep you safe from all danger. May He give you wisdom as you make important decisions about your lives together.
We pray for your dreams to come true. May God guide your feet along the path He has chosen for you. Help us to remember that if it is not God’s plan for our lives, then nothing can change it or stop it, but if it is His plan, He will give us the ability to accomplish whatever we set out to do. Help us to trust in Him completely, knowing that whatever happens is what He wants for us at this time in our lives.
Help us to understand that we need each other; therefore, let us not judge one another too harshly but let us strive always to love and respect each other as God loves and respects us all.
Pray for your future husband, that he would be a godly man who loves you, honors you and leads you in a biblical marriage.
Pray for his family, that they would be a blessing to him and support him in his walk with Christ.
Ask God to give you wisdom as you seek out a husband. Pray for discernment when it comes to friendships and relationships with men. Pray that you will have the ability to see past the facade of a person’s life, so that you can recognize true character and godliness.
Pray for yourself as well, that God will help you grow in maturity over time so that when the right man comes along, he will recognize what an incredible gift God has given him in you!

Prayer for my Future Husband
Lord, I thank you for the man that you have placed in my heart. You know how much I long to be with him and be his wife. I pray that he will come into a relationship with Christ and be ready to marry me when it is God’s time. Please help me to be patient while waiting on him, Amen.
Dear Father,
I pray that my future husband will be a man who is strong in faith, who knows his purpose in life, and who is confident in the Lord. I pray that he will love me for who I am, not for what he can get from me. I pray that he will be patient with me when I make mistakes, and will forgive me when I fall short. I pray that he will always encourage me to be the best version of myself that I can be.
I pray that my future husband will be full of integrity and honesty; that he will live by principles rather than by feelings; and that he will follow God’s word instead of following his own desires.
I pray that my future husband will always put God first in our marriage – before family, friends, or even his own needs – so that our relationship with Him may grow stronger each day.
Dear Lord, please bless my future husband with a good job so that we can provide for our family; protect him from any danger or harm during his daily activities; help him make wise decisions when making important decisions about work or finances; give him wisdom and knowledge about all things financial so that we can live within our means
I pray that the man who will marry me will be a man of God and a strong leader. I pray that he will be someone who loves the Lord with all his heart and soul, and who loves me unconditionally. He should be ready to commit to me and our future family, and willing to walk through life’s ups and downs together. I pray that he is handsome on the outside but even more beautiful in his heart.
I pray that he will love children, because I want to have many children someday. I also pray that he has a good sense of humor because it makes life so much fun!
I pray that my future husband would be able to provide for me financially, as well as emotionally and spiritually. I want him to love me so much that he cannot stand living without me, but also have enough respect for himself not to put up with any nonsense from me either!
I pray that my future husband will not only love me but also respect me; treat me like his queen without being controlling or domineering; provide for not only my material needs but also my emotional needs; encourage me in every aspect of life; make me feel safe enough in his presence so
