Lord, my big mouth has gotten me into trouble, again. I have broken the trust of one of my closest friends. I know Jesus once told us to not let our left hand know what our right hand is doing. I broke this rule of your's in a manner that was most embarrassing for me, and even more so for her. She's ticked, and rightfully so. Please, God, let her find it in her heart to forgive me. My actions were an act of my own insecurities and thus were both juvenile and inexcusable. And I am sorry. Please let me find the best words to tell her that I am sorry, too, and I don't want this to cause problems between what might already be a strained relationship.

I know that my problem here is minor compared to some of the other people's on here who are dealing with serious and life-altering situations. But please look with favor on me in this manner, no matter how you view this. You are merciful, God, and as the sinner that I am, I know that I am not worthy of this mercy. Still you see fit to call me one of Your childrean, and for that I am greatful. Please hear and grant my prayer request. I ask this in Jesus's name, Amen.

God please,

Break down the anger and hurt I've caused in her heart over what I did and said. Let her see that what happened was stupid and an accident. Don't let her stay mad at me forever over this. It hurts me enough to lose my friends, but You know as well as I do that this one will hurt the most. Please.

In Christ's name I pray.

Amen.

Thanks, guys. Last I heard from her, she's still not very happy with me. I appreciate all of you, though.

Update (if anyone really cares about my own personal soap opera)

My friend sent me a message last night. She's still VERY mad. Basically she told me that what she had sent me was to be in strict confidence between her and I. The fact that I sent it to someone else (even for the reasons I did) broke her trust in me, and she says that she will never trust me with things of that nature, again.

She said she needs space, but she's going to be mad for a while.

I have ROYALLY screwed this up, and its killing me more than it should. I don't like hurting people, even by accident... especially when its someone I'm close to. I hate this.

Lord, please. This is killing me. I'm begging of you to please restore Lara and I's friendship. You know that I'm not a person who intentionally hurts his friends like this. If you're trying to make a point that I need to stop gossiping or doing things of that nature, then you've made your point. Please restore this relationship to what it once was, and please help her regain her trust in me. I know others are seeing the strain it is putting on me. Help me to keep a brave face up on this. Also, please, don't let her take the actions against me that she has threatened to. I realize that I am no more worthy of her trust than I am worthy of any of the wonderful gifts you have given me in my life. I am a sinner, God, and I know that many things in my life that I have done are not right. But please, in the name of your holy Son, Jesus Christ of Nazareth, who died for us on the cross at Calvary, I pray and even beg of you. Let this misery end. Let her see that I am sorry, and let her be able to forgive me in her heart and trust me once again. Let her feel the things we felt before as friends so that this can end.

I don't like hurting my friends, Lord God. I don't. Even by accident, and especially not one as close as she is. I'm sorry for everything, God. In the name of Jesus Christ the Savior. I am sorry. To you. To her. And to myself for being who I am. Please help me and hear my prayer and end this suffering between us. Especially if I am truly supposed to be there for her like You told me I am. I ask this in the name of Jesus Christ my Savior who sacaraficed himself for all of mankind, God's perfect and only begotten Son , Amen.

Heavenly Father
Thank You for Your great love towards us.
You paid the price our sin demands and when we confess our sins -
You are faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
It is enough that Jesus died and I pray that TorchHeart will rest
secure in the truth that You forgive us when we are repentant of our sin.
Thank You that You love us so very much that Your Holy Spirit convicts us when we do wrong
and may TH know that there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.
May TH have faith in Your forgiveness and trust Your forgiveness and mercy so that he/she will not
continually wonder if he is forgiven this sin and therefore please protect TH's mind and give him/her Your peace.
Help TH to block out any wrong thoughts or feelings of condemnatin and renew his/her mind with Your Word.
Please also work in TH's friend's heart that they also may find Your strength to forgive TH.
Thank You Father.
AMEN

Lord, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry for everything, and I'm really hurting and stressed out over this. Please, I know I'm being punished by her for what I did. Please don't you be punishing me, too. I'm begging you with all my heart. Restore this friendship to what it was. Help Lara get over her anger and hurt towards me. Help me rebuild the trust and feelings that I may have/actually have ruined. Lord, I know I'm a sinner. I know I have my own prejudices and angers that I need to get over, and maybe that's what I have to learn to do. Overall, though, I know that I'm not worth anything, least of all the gifts you've given me. Above all, the friendships and relationships with people you have surrouned me with. I am as much their servant as you want me to be, as you call all of us to be servants for one another. Please... have mercy and let this suffering of mine end. And more importantly let her anger end. I'm losing my mind over this, and its hurting. I don't know if I can hold out much longer before I simply go over the edge. Do not let her hold a grudge against me... I beg of you with all my heart, in the name of Christ the Savior, your only son, who died for all of our sins. Please... help fix this. Amen.

TorchHeart I know you are not seeing the answers you wanted yet. Remember the Lord does many things in peoples lives that we may never know about.
He may be answering your prayer by helping her heal from the pain she has gone through,.
He may be working in some very intricate way to help her with trust issues again
When people are hurt it can be very devastating in many ways and take time to heal
I know you are hurting but I also know the Lord has heard your prayers.
He may just be answering them in a different way than you expected.
Which you should be thankful for because the Lord wants the very best for you and your friend.

Thank You Lord for what you are doing in this situation.
Thank You for the healing and strength you are giving both Torch and his friend.
Lord I pray that you would continue to work in the lives of these two
Help them Lord to trust in you for their every need.
Draw them Lord to you as you bring healing to their lifes.
Lord I pray that you will bring restoration to this relationship
I pray that both of these people will grow in faith as you help them through this
May your will be done Lord
In Jesus name
Amen

Well, here's an update. I finally heard back from my friend. After about 3 weeks, she's no longer upset with me. She she, though, that she's still very leary about sharing things with me because of how I acted.

I'm embarrassed by this, and I'm still sorry that I hurt one of my friends this badly. Its going to take a while to rebuild that trust, but I pray (and trust that) the Lord will help me do that.

Thank you to everyone who has prayed for (and tollerated) me and my friend during this ordeal. I appreciate it greatly. And thank you to God for finally helping to soften her heart enough to have her forgive me and start talking to me again. In Christ's name, I do fully appreciate it, and I worship you for your mercy. I plan to learn from this, and hope that I never do anything like this again.

Please, God. Now just help me regain her trust and be the friend for her that I should be. I ask this in the name of your son, Jesus christ.
