help me trust that god is in control

I am sixteen, almost seventeen years old and I have been a Christian for a about ten years now. However, I have struggled all my life in really trusting God and knowing him. I've always prayed that one day God would show me someone who would help me on my journey. Last year I met a guy, and yeah i guess you could say I had a crush on him. Well we eventually started dating and I was amazed at how fast I really started to fall for him. He is an amazing Christian and brought me SO much closer to God and really helped me on my journey towards knowing God. I truly believe that God sent him to save me..I was about to go down the wrong path and then he came into my life and I really saw the light. We were together for about five months and everything seemed so perfect to me. We went to church togeter, he got alone with my family..I really felt like he was the one for me. Well, he really took me by surprise a few nights ago, when he shared with me that he felt like he wasn't as close to God as he wanted to be. I asked him if he thought having a girlfriend was keeping him from being close to him. He said that wasn't it, but he just needed some time to get things right between him and God again. I fought so hard but I gave in, because i knew it was the right thing to do. I care about him SO much and want him to be happy, but it really kills me that we're not together right now. I am so upset by this because I really did love him. But i guess I just need to sit back and let God do what he needs to do in both of our lives and if it is his will for us to be together, then God will bring us back to eachother after we have both grown in our faith. If anyone has any words of advice or encouragement, i would really appreciate it!
