God broke up my relationship with my beau

[esther18]

i had a steady relationship 2 years ago with Ab.God always wanted me to tell him about the gospel but i was hesitate to do so,coz there was nothing fruitful in my life to show him.sometimes i will just pray for him,dont know what to do.i have a small bible with me n always think bout when i"ll ever have the courage to give him.
we were passionately in love and he was absolutely crazy bout me.but all of a sudden he broke up with me n finally i gave him the bible n prayed holding his hands the last nite we spent together.i finally have the courage.
i saw jesus just after that ,now im really happy.
sorry for the long text.

Hey sis... that sounds rough, but that's great that you did what God pushed you to do He definitely knows best... and everything always works out perfectly in the end, when we hang on to Him. He's awesome like that ;-)
Somewhat interestingly, I recently went through something similar... I went through a very messy breakup that hurt me very much... but it was like as I fell out of her arms, I fell into my true love's arms: Jesus. I've since then had a lot of rough times missing her & the like... but every time I do, all I have to do is rememer what a wonderful relationship I have in her place. I mean, I always loved God and everything.. but now God is not only in the role He was to me before, but now He's my *everything*... and while I miss my girl dearly... I must without one twinge of doubt say that my beloved Jesus' love is far sweeter. He's so amazing; like KJ put it, "He picks up the broken pieces that they've thrown away".

Rock on

[p.s.: I must add that I am not sayign that we should all give up on earthly relationships in trade for a closer Heavenly one; but it is truely amazing the way we can be so much more intimate with God when we do not have other relationships to get between us. For reference, read what Paul had to say on the matter... First Corinthians 7:1-40.
Also as a note, I'm not going cellibut or anything... just enjoying the benefits of being single ;-)

The potential of losing a relationship to the most precious girl in the world to me
is in my life right now. She claims no faith and I'm a born again believer. God can
do anything but if this thing isn't in the will of God then I can only accept that
her leaving my life is the way God intends it to be (note: we're still
together and our love remains -- I'm trying to break to her, lovingly,
the truth of the world, the futility of pursuing the world, and the peace
granted by making peace with God).
I hope your emotions can hold up because I'm sure that when you spend two years
deriving so much happiness from one source (in this case your boyfriend), to lose
that is pretty stressful and nerve wracking. Love is like any other drug, unfortunately,
in that chemical reactions take place that cause us to receive pleasure from a
source and our brains look to that source for continual pleasure. Thankfully
it's something that God gave us to enjoy, naturally.
Sorry if I said more than I needed to. I just felt compelled to offer that little bit and
hope that if God doesn't give you someone of the faith soon, that He'll at least
make it easy for you to find comfort when you long for what you once had.
Of course, it would be wonderful for the person you love to find Christ and come back
to you a new creature, but what God wills, He will.

As an aside, it's interesting how this is playing out in my life re: my attitude toward
the lost.
I love this girl. I naturally want her to be happy, and as a person who believes in
afterlife (this is very basic, of course I believe much more than that ), I want
her to be happy forever.
I see her standing before the judgement seat of God. I also see images of us
standing across from each other and her hand slipping away from mine as she goes
off into an eternity separate from God.
I've never felt love for another human being like I have her. But this brings about
a great burden. God hears the prayers of an honest child of God. My prayer is
for her salvation, and the Creator of everything will do all He can to see that
she is made aware of her position before God and the way out of eternal separation.
But it's up to her to accept it...
Anyway, this situation is breaking my heart and that's what God wants from us.
If anything it will get me to take to God an honest burden for the soul of another.
And this is making me tender towards all people, which is how we should be.
We should have a burden for all souls.
So from this girl that I love, God is showing me what it means to care for someone's
eternal destination, and is softening my heart as to the eternal destination of
everyone else.

Just wanted to share that, thanks for reading .
