Focus

For some people, dating helps them find the qualities that they want for their future wife/husband...but i dont want to go through a million guys. Im leaving my future in Gods hands. He will bring me who he wants me to be with. Ive been praying for God to bring me that One guy, the one im suppose to marry. I personally do not want to go through all the heartache that many go through. See.. I will only think about dating someone, if I can see that guy as a potential husband. Some may say thats stupid, and/or crazy. But in the long run, Im just saving myself the trouble from going guy to guy. Although, if a guydoes enter my life, I pray about it. I want God to show me if i could have a future with him. Ive had one boyfriend. And have been single for almost the past 4 years. Ive used the last few years to spend alot of time with God, strenghtening my relationship with Him. Its what i needed to do. God did put in our hearts though, the need for someone else, hence marriage. But I believe that if we are patient He will show us who is the right one for each of us. We need to be patient, and not just go around "dating for Jesus" ..meaning, going out and dating someone under the impression of saving them. Why dont you just be freinds with that person first, save them for God, and then if you are still wanting to date them, and see a possible future with them, then date. Our focus should be on God, and pleasing Him. Not on someone else. If you are spending so much time with another person, and forgetting, or not even aknowledging God, then youre not really a true Christ follower. You are not living out your beliefes. The belief that says ou relationship with Him is the most importand relationship, and the most valuable. God send Jesus to die for us, he deserves our undefined attention! He should be our first priority. Keep your eyes focused on the Lord, and not of things of this world. Be seeking His will for your life, not what you want. Being single is a gift from God, use that time to put all your attention on the Lord. Gods was is focused first on or relationship with Him, then our own lifestyle, and then seeking a "significant other"...The worlds model says that you will not be happy until you find "the one". The "one" you need to find is God!
