How To Pray For Your Future Husband

Praying for your future husband not only prepares your future husband's heart and soul for what is to come, but it also prepares yours to receive his. Praying for my future husband helped me become content with being single while I was. It helped me not only know what I’m looking for in a man of God, but it helped me know what kind of woman I wanted to be for that man. It is so humbling to pray for another person, especially for someone you haven't even met yet. It only makes sense to pray to the One who is the source of true love for your future husband, your true love. When you begin praying for your future husband, don't forget to pray for...

His heart

Pray that God may open up his heart to love and not only to love, but to love deeply, unconditionally, and passionately. Pray that his relationship with God is strengthened daily and that the Lord will reveal Himself to him in ways unimaginable. Pray that his heart be guarded with the Lord's love and peace. Pray that any of his past heartaches be healed and that he will be able to open his heart again for love when the time is right. Pray that his heart remain content and patient through waiting for you, his future wife.

His mind

Pray that the Lord guide and protect his mind so that it would be strong enough to fight temptations. Pray that he will surrender himself to the Lord so that if any parts of his character that need to be converted, he will allow God to change him into the man he was created to be. Pray that the Holy Spirit help him on the path to righteousness and always comfort him. Pray that his mind never be taken over by depression or uncertainty and that his mind remain focused on the Lord’s will.

His family

Pray that his family not only guides him to make good choices but, that they are supportive of his endeavors so that he can be all that he hopes to be. Pray that the Lord always watches over his family. Pray that his parents are loving and caring so that they can teach him to always be loving and caring towards you and others. Pray that he understands how to have healthy boundaries with his family. Pray that he learns how to be a good, loving father by the example of his own father and that he sees and learns healthy ways to love from the example of his family.

His purpose

Pray that he knows and understands why he was created and that he always has a reason to live. Pray he is passionate about what he does and that he is always trying to learn more skills and wisdom to grow as a man of God. Pray that he is drawn away from insecurities and depression so that he may have hope for his future marriage. Pray that God helps him understand the purpose and importance of marriage and the role he will have as your husband.


While waiting for your future marriage, praying for your future husband will allow you to cherish yourself while preparing both you and your future husband’s heart for marriage. Philippians 4:6 says, "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.“ Taking the time to talk to God about the hopes and dreams you have for your future marriage can greatly impact your life as well as your present and future relationships.

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

(For Girls Who Are Interested In Greek Life)

Sorority
Rebekah Lee

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.
