I've always struggled with relationships. I've been a self-confessed commitment phobe at times and then a recovering commitment-phobe thinking I had things figured out. The truth is I haven't figured it out. I am still very much in the process of figuring it out and seeking God's will for my life on a constant basis.
Recently after a difficult and painful break-up, I found myself replaying some of the lessons I've learned along the way, some of the scriptures that have brought me comfort during hard times and some that have challenged me to think differently about decisions that I have made as I seek a relationship that honors God. What I have discovered is there is a lot of truth, love, peace, and wisdom to be found in those passages - all of which have ministered to me in tremendous ways.
It is my desire to now to spend fifty days set apart, taking an intentional break from dating, to focus on those scriptures once again, seeking God's healing in my life and His will for moving forward. I have chosen to share that journey with my friends, with you, because I am more convinced than ever that God did not create us to live life alone, but to share life together and encourage each other as we walk through the trials of life.
I covet your prayers through this time in my life, and I welcome your feedback and comments. I would love to hear your thoughts on my reflections and to see how God has or is working in your life as well.
I'm not quite sure where this journey will lead, but I know that with God, it is certain to be a great adventure!
