Lord, this is my prayer for my future partner:

First and foremost, I pray that they know you, Lord.

That they not only know your Word, but live it out everyday.

I pray that he is willing to follow Christ first and foremost.

I pray that he can be a man who doesn't fall for the temptations of this world, but for what your Word says.

Send me someone who will show me off and won’t kick me under the table for speaking my mind.

I pray that he is forgiving and knows when to apologize.

I pray he is a protector and makes me feel safe.

I pray he has a sense of humor and loves to laugh.

I pray that he will be a hard worker.

I pray that his faith and love will never falter when things get hard.

Lord, please give him loving friends and family to surround him with so that he never feels alone.

I pray that he is a good, reliable friend to others.

Lord, send me someone who accepts how often I cry.

I pray he is patient.

I pray that he wants to grow together spiritually.

I pray that he challenges me to be a better person.

I pray that when he is faced with a battle he takes it to you first Lord.

I pray for his leadership qualities, that one day he will be a strong head of the household.

I pray that he will be a good father our children can look up to and is a faithful husband to me.

Send me someone who will never stop loving me.

I pray that he is an honest man and wouldn’t keep anything from me.

While I wait for the man you have set aside for me, I pray that with time I become a woman deserving of such a man.

Lord, this is my prayer for myself:

Help me to strengthen my relationship with you, Lord.

I want to be a Proverbs 31 woman.

Teach me to celebrate my flaws.

Help me to develop and maintain lifelong friendships.

Make me more independent.

Help me to be more optimistic and less pessimistic.

Teach me to listen before I speak.

Help me to be kind to everyone, even those undeserving of kindness.

Make me slow to anger and quick to forgive.

Help me to focus less on outer beauty and more on inner beauty.

Help me to realize I don’t always need control.

Make me into a woman my parents will proud of.

Help me to always remember your plan is bigger and better than mine.

Grant me patience until your perfect timing.

Until then, help me to stop looking for love in human form and look to you, Lord.
