Everyone in the world has the desire to have a loving and caring father. However, in this fallen world, there are many children and adults who have never experienced a father’s love. I have deep compassion for those who are fatherless.
My prayer is that every hurting person (child or adult) will experience the priceless gift of God’s perfect love and rest in knowing how deeply compassionate is the heart of our FATHER IN HEAVEN.
Dear Heavenly Father,
Thank You for loving us with a perfect, fatherly love. I ask You to comfort every son and daughter who is hurting today and missing their earthly fathers. Draw close to them and let them know that You are the Father to the fatherless. Help those without a father to rest in Your presence and know that You will never leave them, nor forsake them. Help them look to You always as their provider, nurturer, and protector.
Reveal Your love to them and fill the void by sending a trustworthy man who can help guide and lead them through their lives. Let them walk with confidence and faith in Your ability to meet the longings of their hearts. I pray in Christ’s name. Amen.
“A father of the fatherless, a defender of widows, Is God in His holy habitation.” Psalm 68:5
