Please, I am sending this prayer request from sri lanka needing your prayers. I cant tell about this to my other Christian friends.i am 28 years old unmarried, in love with a Muslim guy called Asfar. I didn’t mean to but somehow I fell in love with him. He is a teacher…very sweet to me. The problem is that he doesn’t believe in love. He completely discards that feeling. I am complete believer in it. Yeah he is all supporter for sex. So far we didn’t do any sex as he works outstation…I have been brought up in culture where the girl’s virginity is greatly emphasized. Of course if we want we can cross those boundaries.But my heart wont allow it as I don’t want to hurt my parents, hurt myself and blacken my name…now Asfar wants to do it. As always I cant find it in myself to disappoint him. But I am terribly scared…of sex, and for losing him. He is a traditional muslim, his parents wants him to marry a muslim girl. Even he frankly tell me that he cant marry me. I have been telling him that I will not be his mistress. I know the situ is utterly ridiculous…I wish I never loved him. I am like a leaf that s blown away by the wind. I want love from my childhood…so far I have showered him with my love…even mellowed him a bit. But this is a huge step for me.I feel so utterly out of control in this. I don’t exactly envy his future wife as well. He says that the reason for his marriage is that he wants kids. I was flabbergasted.I cant imagine any relationship without love, affection. This is like renting some sort of breeding machine. But in some ways his culture does expect that from women. One day he will marry and he will belong to that lady. I will be alone. My love will be discriminated because I am not married to him.That prospect terrifies me. Either way I will lose him. I know enough that with men sex never equals to love. Either way I will get hurt.
God wont help sins…would God help me if I ask for His help and intervention? I know God loves Asfar as He loves me and wants best for us.Please pray that God will give Asfar a spirit of love, truth…that God will teach him the power of His love and instill in him the love and crave for the good things in life…and that whenever Asfar deals with me,talk to me or meet me God will give him His loving heart to love me protect me…Asfar doesn’t have it in himself to love me…would God shield me protect me…I am so terribly scared. I do love him, want to do my best for him…but I am already hurting, I won’t be able to handle more hurt. Please pray for this…
Love from,
S.

Father, please help this precious woman. While love is a wonderful thing and should be sought as it is a primary need for a woman, to continue a relationship with someone who can't or won't love back is not wise. Help this young woman to value herself as you do. Give her the courage to walk away from this man and wait for you to bring her a man that will love her and cherish her and who is a believer in Christ. This man has told her blatantly that he wants to have sex with her...but will not marry her. In essence...he is willing to use her but give her nothing. And what will she have in the end? Shame, upset and pain. Father...help her to remember that if two people can not agree how can they walk together? Bring to her mind the dangers of being unequally yoked. Father protect this woman and give her the strength, courage and wisdom to wait on YOUR choice for her life. In Jesus holy name...Amen!

God I pray for you to remove any strongholds from this woman's life. Please help her to see you through every situation and to run to you with open arms. Please help her to not hurt as you heal her heart and take this tempting situation away from her. Annoit her and protect her. Help her to find someone who will love her and who has the same foundations, values, and beliefs that she has. Help her to avoid the temptation of having sex and help her to turn to you for that protection from this man's suggestions. In Jesus' name, Amen.
