Day 142 - Your New Relationship
Ask yourself two questions: Is my new relationship God-centered or me-centered? Why do I want this new relationship?
Gretchen says, “Over the years I have seen people so desperate for marriage right after their husbands had died. They were so desperate to get married again that they would just run the men down. I’ve seen men do the same thing with women. They would think, I just can’t do without a person in the house with me, and it didn’t work out. It wasn’t God-centered. It was me-centered.”
Take an honest look at your new relationship and decide if this relationship will bring honor and glory to God. If you aren’t sure, then wait, pray, and seek God’s guidance to distinguish His will from your will. His will is always best for you.
“Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will” (Romans 12:2).
Thy will be done, Lord, not mine. Amen.
