    im stuck in a dating relationship with someone who doesn't know christ. i love the girl, but i know she's not the one for me. God has made that clear. we didn't talk for a year but someone she's ended back in my life even though we are not officially dating… she is VERY emotionally dependent. If we could just be friends it would be fine.. but thats not enough and she is hindering my walk with God, but at the same time i don't know how to handle the situation because she is so emotionally dependent. please pray for her and for me that i have wisdom and strength in this. I worry about her and want her to know Christ. and i need to be free from this to better my walk with him.

    thank you for your prayers. advice is welcome, i just don't know if ill be able to take it or not.
    love in christ

    Hi:

    I am praying that God will give you wisdom to deal with this situation. You will find that wisdom in His Word. You say advice is welcome, but I don't know if I will take it or not, therefore, I will not give you advice. Will you take God's advice?

    yes. but it needs to come from him. i've gotten a lot of advice from a lot of good christians that is very conflicting. so its hard to always tell what's coming from God. thats why i'm not really looking for advice as much as prayer on this blog.

    Have an open mind. Seek and you will find. God is Love and by loving Him you will find what you are looking for. But first of all, you should be Baptized and be born again and receive the Holy Spirit, without God's Holy Spirit you will not understand that is of God.
    I know that you have gotten some advice from others as well. My Question to you is, why have you not been seeking for God?

    Peace and Love Mrs.

    i am saved. i am baptized. there is no need to worry about that. i have been seeking God. and i am… but that does not mean life isn't still difficult.

    Ah…..love. Don't you wish you could turn it off and on when you want to? It's not that easy, is it? I understand your situation and will pray for you tonight.

    If you are certain that God has told you she is not the one for you, I will pray for strength to obey that word. It may be the hardest thing you will ever have to do. I'll pray for strength and will power! :;):

    A couple of years back I went through this situation with a friend. Months of agonising and heartbreak and he wore the brunt of it.

    My friend was a big follower of Christ but had a penchant for falling for non-Christian girls. And surprise, surprise, no matter how hard he tried he couldn't get them to commit to Jesus.

    Trouble was that he couldn't get it through his thick skull that someone who isn't seeking God is like a smoker who doesn't want to give up. They have to want to do it or they won't do it!

    The Lord gives us choice, Joe. She has to make the choice. You can't make that choice for her.

    You say the Lord has made it clear to you that this girl is not the one for you. If that's the case why aren't you listening to Him?

    In your conversations with God has He ever told you that He wants you to personally save this girl? If not, why are you still going down that path?

    You say she is hindering my walk with God then do yourself a favour and let her go. You seem to be listening to the enemy!

    Throughout your opening remarks the theme is `I want'….not `she wants' or `the Lord wants'. `I want' – despite getting advice from the top man Himself.

    I believe you really know what you have to do but you are ignoring the facts, and even admit that you probably won't take any advice given here. (Hmmmmm, why am I wasting my time? If Joe isn't listening to God he's certainly not going to listen to me!) :laugh: Call it tough love! :laugh:

    You are letting infatuation blind you from the truth, Joe. And if this girl is so emotionally independent – she probably won't even miss you when you're out of the picture!

    I don't think the Lord is putting you through a test, Joe, because He has already spoken – but by following your own agenda I believe you are putting your faith to the test, and in jeopardy.

    You aren't `safe' just because you are baptised and think you are safe `by His blood alone', Joe, you have to truly believe in and follow the Lord's instruction.

    You, have to put your own selfish wants aside and do what He wants. Any diversion puts you on a very slippery slope. :O

    I know that you don't want advice, Joe, but having seen a friend lose a lot from a similar situation, you've got it! :laugh:

    Praying that commonsense will drop by your house soon.

    God bless!

    Well dating and unbeliever is not a sin, it is a great witnessing oppretunity, but I'll keep you in my prayers.
