Don't know what I need

I'm thanking God for answering my prayer request two weeks ago for direction and peace with a decision about ending the relationship with the guy I was dating. Marriage wasn't something he was heading toward anymore, but he was willing to compromise sexually. He was trying so hard to be obedient to God when we first started dating. The same day I felt the Holy Spirit giving me my answer in church I told my guy I needed to move on. He was expecting it and understood I was looking for marriage and a father figure for my kids before they're all grown up.

I have peace with the decision, but it doesn't make the lonliness and sadness go away. I've decided to change churches-to the one where I felt God's presence so strongly. They have the evening services I need and the ministry for singles that was lacking at my old church. I emailed the associate pastor today telling him of my decision and asked about getting into a small group.

Now what? There is a male friend I've known for a year and we're both attracted to each other, but I haven't been seeing him go to church. I asked him about this, but he hasn't answered yet. He's very stressed about finding a new job. Seems like the timing is never right with him, but we always got along so well when we went out with our kids. He is very special to me, but I don't know if I should be waiting. I have such an ache for a man who can spiritually lead me and my kids. There are two Christian guys wanting me to call them and I've just prayed for God to direct me. I want to do things better this time around.

I have faith that Adonai will give you the guidance and direction that you so desire. Open your heart to Him and consult Him. It is written in Psalm 37:4, "Delight thyself also in the Lord; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart."

I have faith that the Lord will give you guidance, that He will.
