Living with older partner, (companions) we are ok living together. He is 83, not a believer and it is his home. His health is quite good. I am 64, and I have a few health challenges.
We are selling, our place which is on a very noisy main road. He is ready to move into a retirement village, while I would like a unit in a quieter street. Where does God want us both to live next? Faith and Trust challenge! Please pray for us/

Dear Child of God, I lift your situation to God. I pray that He will guide your way by His light. I pray that He will make the decision so clear to you that you will have no doubt about where He wants you both to be. As you search for His direction, I pray that He will calm your minds. I pray that He will prepare the e way for you so that it will not be distressing. Lord, please let S. and her companion see clearly Your direction. Grant them Your wisdom and show them Your path. Let Your Word be a light and a guide to them. Amen.

Dear Child of God, I pray that you will find peace over your situation. Make a list of all your needs in a new house and present them to the Lord. He will honour your faith. He loves to give good gifts to His children and will supply all your needs according to His riches in glory. I pray that your companion’s eyes will be opened to the moving of His Spirit and see through your eyes of faith our amazing God. I pray that the eyes of his heart will be opened and he will see Jesus. I pray that the Lord will keep His hand upon his life until the day of his salvation. I also pray that His hand of healing will rest upon you. Amen.

Hi,
I feel your confusion, uncertainty, fear and hope. Like you we are looking to move and, like you, my spouse and I cannot agree what is for the best or even if a move is for the best. Just when we think that we’ve come up with a plan something happens to turn it on its head.
I’m sure that, like us, this uncertainty is putting a strain on the relationship between you. Maybe you have days when compromise seems impossible and you want to go your own ways and then there are days when you’d willingly go along with your companion’s desires and hopefully there are days when he or she would accept your desires.
I don’t have an answer for you. All I can say is that our God is a Great Big God and he’s got this, even though we can’t see the future. I try to remind myself that this could be exciting. He’s got a plan for us that he’s revealing bit by bit and, at some point in the future, you’ll look back on it all and everything will have fallen into place and you’ll say to yourself “so that’s why that happened…”
In this time of uncertainty it is good to look back to previous times of uncertainty that resolved themselves to the best. Those times that God came through for you previously.
Just a thought to finish, could God be using this time to reach your companion? Could it be that God wants your companion to see you modelling faith and hope in Him?
