Not Attached

I Corinthians 7:31

Those who use the things of the world should not become attached to them. For this world as we know it will soon pass away.

O my Father, please allow me to divest myself of this property, so I can end my attachment to it. I feel fettered to this place, and I long to be free of it. 

I also pray that You would show me how to put to use all You have taught me about relationships since You took my husband home to be with You. Would you have me advise and counsel other couples in their attitudes and views of each other to help them in their relationships, or have You been preparing another partner for me, and me for him? 

If You have, then I ask that You would bring his path to cross mine. You know that I would appreciate having another hero, one who would be my life-partner as well as a prayer-partner, a travel-partner, and a missionary and ministry partner. Someone who loves You with his whole heart and knows You well through Your Spirit and an extensive familiarity with Your Word. That we can serve You together until our King returns.

Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
