Am I running away from love?

Dear God, I know it’s okay to be single, and I know it’s okay to be single for long. I’m 22 years old and very confused. There is a boy who I liked who broke my heart ( I’m ashamed to admit it). He always tells me I’m beautiful, always stares, always finds ways to…

I’m Broken & Empty

Dear God, Please help me. I’m depressed, hopeless, empty, and I don’t like the person I am. I’ve lost the confidence that I had and I feel as if I’m never going to find true love or success. My family and I are in need of financial help. Please help me. I’m naive. I’m heart broken. I’ve been betrayed…

Please Provide For Us

Dear God, I have tried to be a good and kind faithful servant of yours, and in many ways I have failed. I am often quick to anger and hurt people out of my own pain and frustration. Times have been tough lately. I wonder if the pain my mother in law is causing me…

Lost in the Gray

Dear God, I once was on fire for you, I prayed every day, I read my bible every day, I even had a “purity” ring. You gave me the one thing I craved and that was a boyfriend, someone to love me. You and I both know how that ended up: me shattered into pieces, virginity…

How It Is For Me

Dear God, I know you’re there, no matter how much my conscious assaults me otherwise. I released it when *She* died. Although everybody else felt like she was too young, too perfect and ultimately too good to die, I still, even though it made me hurt so damn deep inside, felt happy that she had been moved from this place to…

Hoping for the Hopeless

Dear God, I know you answered my prayers, that answer seems to be a big no. I’m still angry with your answer, because I believe my intentions are real and selfless. Why would you not grant these I ask, there, I did not get answer. I am more lost than before because of these, more…

Forgiveness & Guidance

Dear God, I don’t remember when I last spoke to you. I was young…Dad still preached your word and the world wasn’t so grey. Things were black and white then…right or wrong. I find myself lost and in need of guidance. And while I feel selfish for being so asking in my first prayer in…

He Took Advantage

Dear God, Forgive me, for I have been a tragically naive person and I have sinned. Some time ago, I started seeing a young man who is very ambitious, successful and handsome. I did this against the advice of several mutual acquaintances, who told me that he was not the person he seemed. I chose…

Prayer for Love

Dear God, First of all, I want to say thank you for all the blessings I receive everyday. I’ve been blessed with a wonderful family, great friends, and my career. They say we can’t have everything. The only thing that is missing in my life is a man who would love me unconditionally. I recently…

I need to know if I am following my heart out of good faith

Dear God, I have a dream. I started young doing the wrong things in life. In which you know. Still to this day, I am unsure if what I am doing in life is still the right thing. I believe that I am showing my children to follow their dreams and their hearts, but I…
