my dilema

[TravellingGrace]

Crissy is sort of adopted into the Panorama crew even though I've known her since grade 10 in highschool...

Yeah, I have Ken, and other friends too, but most of my friends are from church or school I think I've sheltered myself too much lately... hense feeling so hopeless and like I'm failing at something horribly...

Well, people tend to become friends with people that they spend a lot of time with. It makes sense that you wouldn't be friends with people that you haven't spent much time with yet.

lol, I've spent more time with some friends that I've known for a month and a bit than I have with friends who I met them through that I've known for at least a year

Hmm, okay.

What are you talking about?

 

[TravellingGrace]

maybe knowing a friend you've only known for a month better than a friend you've known for a year...????

I think that's the only logical answer.

 

[TravellingGrace]

I try to be logical

So friendship can vary from time to time !

My advice, don't date the non-christian no matter what, I had a non-christian girlfriend recently and ended it having to explain to her how it was kinda pointless cos of our different life stances and i can see how that would have hurt her heaps. and it's really hard when u hurt someone who is nice .

but neway i know what u mean when u say u just want somebody, but don't give up, when i broke up with my Girlfriend God made a promise to me by showing me the type of person i may be with, he did this with a scene in my mind then followed it up physically a few days later by showing me i could talk to and get along easily with Christian girls.

don't despair! if u know that God has promised u that sorta Guy (which i'm sure he has) just focus on wanting to be everything u could be in Christ for that Guy God promised u!

Cheers, Sean

Great post. I agree.

 

[TravellingGrace]

Trust him and have faith and be patient! I am sure a wonderful man - a special man will walk past you one day!

 

[TravellingGrace]

past...?

Hadn't read this post until now, I've only read your original post, and I just wanted to commend you on realizing that dating a non-Christian is not a good idea, and its wonderful that you've been able to recognize that, stick to it, be friends with him.. its a very responsible and mature choice for your faith.

Having married a non-Christian, I can say its a struggle that you don't want ontop of all the regular challenges and struggles that life already has to throw at you. I think there are a lot of struggles and challenges in life that are healthy for us, but this is something that truly can crush your faith if you aren't extremely cautious, and even with caution its a constant uphill battle of the harshest kind some days..

Stick to your guns on this one, never compromise yourself, your values, your beliefs, etc.

It's hard when they guy pays attention to you, I'll give you that. Although I almost wonder, is it better to be attracted to a non-Christian or a Christian who you're not so sure is really living out his faith... at least with the non-Christian you know where they stand. Pick and choose Christians are a different story though...

 

[TravellingGrace]

I suppose, but if they are faithful in some areas... it's even hard to find a good Christian man these days...

I meant - pass -- ChurchPunk86 -- sorry about the mispelt word.

I am sure there are positive aspects from each relationship if you've ever have one.

People are never the same but sometimes it is good being different.
