I have become very stressed, upset and worried over the fact that I may never get married. I am 27 years old, and I am asking prayers for a husband to come my way. My family keeps hinting that I need to find someone and my sister even said that guys think girls who are 27 or 28 are old and don’t want to marry. This really sunk deep and has not left my mind. Lots of people in my community get married young, and the older ones seem to struggle finding someone. It scares me that I may end up never getting married. Especially, because I know my mother and father will not be happy if that happens. I don’t settle for just anyone, so it’s hard to meet anyone that I really like. I ask for your prayers please. Thank you, and God Bless!!!
 
*Hail Mary,
Full of Grace,
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit
of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary,
Mother of God,
pray for us sinners now,
and at the hour of our death.
Amen. *

St. Jude, pray for her!
 
O Lord, bless Cupcake143 with Your healing grace. Comfort her in this time of anxiety, and grant her Your peace. Fill her heart with Your perfect love, that she may turn and love You as perfectly, trusting in Your divine providence, and laughing joyfully at the days to come. Amen.

Cupcake143, don’t lose hope! You are young and full of life, and there are a lot of men out there looking for a good and faithful wife. If you haven’t already, inquire into Catholic singles group at parishes in your diocese, and don’t stop at just one. Have faith that God will provide you everything you need. May the peace of Christ be upon you! 🙂
 
Hello Cupcake143,

I believe it is through God’s grace that I was lead to see your prayer request and make my first post here on the forum. I was 28 years old when I met the woman of my dreams. Until then, I had effectively given up. I thought that perhaps God had some other plan for me, and even considered that this was perhaps punishment for past sins of mine. As I saw most all of my friends get married (and sadly, some divorced) I prayed for a good Christian woman and found out later that my wife-to-be had done the same. We both had dated others, but God had yet to put His plan into action.

One day, my next-door neighbor asked if I would mind if she brought an old college friend over that had stopped by to visit. She said she’d never really thought about it before, but that she felt we had similar interests. Long story short, it was amazing how many things we had in common and…well… we married one year later.

By the way, we have been blessed with two wonderful, strong Catholic children and will celebrate our 25th anniversary in six months.

All I know is that God effectively “delivered” my wonderful wife to me when I’d all but given up. Please keep praying and we’ll pray for you as well.

He truly works in wonderful and mysterious ways!

Blessings,
Brian
 
Take courage.

God’s time takes longer than we want, but it is so amazing.

I met my husband when I was 27, we had our first child when I was 33.

Don’t let the expectations of others weigh you down.

27 is SO YOUNG.

Still, I understand and I will pray that God gives you peace in your heart.

lol. I just read the post above. It was the same for me.
I was set up on a blind date.
I had given up on the whole dating scene and was just doing a favor for a friend by going out with this guy. He continues to amaze me every day.
 
I will pray for you. HOWEVER, why assume that you are going to lead the vocation of marriage? Some lead the religious vocation and others the single vocation. And also for men there is the priesthood. Stay open to all vocations as you may be called to be a sister, nun, or even single.
 
Thank you all so much! Your prayers and responses made me feel better. God Bless you all!
 
God, please help Cupcake find a suitable husband. Ease her worries of never getting married and give her hope that she will find someone to marry. †
 
Memorare (Prayer to Our Lady)
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession, was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in your mercy, hear and answer me. Amen
