A Prayer for a Non-Christian Loved One

Loving Father, I bring before You someone I care about who does not yet know You. You see their heart better than I ever could. I trust them into Your gentle hands.

Draw them near, Lord. Open their eyes to Your goodness. Place people and moments in their path that reveal Your love. Soften whatever stands in the way.

Give me patience and kindness. Let my words be gracious and my life point to You. Help me to love them well while You do the work only You can do.

I release my worry and wait in hope, trusting Your perfect timing. In Jesus' name, Amen.

When to Pray This

Pray this whenever your heart is heavy for a loved one who does not share your faith. It is a good prayer to return to often, trusting God with the outcome rather than forcing it. Let it steady you to love them patiently along the way.
