Hi there. I am new to this forum. I am so glad I joined. I don't have a lot of fellowship in my life. Although I have some and I am very thankful for that. My fiance and I have been engaged since last April, so a little over a year. We have gone through some VERY VERY rocky parts, and we still are. He recently moved back to his hometown and he wants me to move with him. I have never left my town ever. I have always lived here. I really think it will be a good thing for me to move and face my fears and experience something new and scary. The church down there is awesome and I will have plenty of new Christian lady friends! I am very excited!

However I am worried about our relationship. I pray everyday that God will bless us. We still fight. We have huge trust issues. Since we don't live in the same city anymore (350 miles away) we get upset if one of us doesn't answer the phone or texts. We are constantly asking each other is we still love each other. I am getting very anxious and depressed about it and I am just asking for some prayer right now. Pray that God will reveal Himself to us and that we will live our life honoring Him. Pray that God will instill His spirit in us and that we will always think of 1 Corinthians chapter 13. Pray that my fiance will yearn to become the man that God wants him to be. Pray that I will become the Godly woman that He wants me to be. I ask that you pray that we obey him and wait for marriage and do not fall into temptation.

I really appreciate this. It means the world to me for prayer. I believe in miracles and I believe people can change for the better and I believe that God can completely consume your life and help you live according to His word.

Thank you all so much!

I will pray for you hun. My advice for you is to not move in with him, and if you don't want to have sex before marriage...don't move in with him. No one is too strong to be tempted. Have him visit or go through pre-marital counseling together. You can even do this over the phone with a counselor. Get some work books, go to a seminar. This is important even for strong relationships. You need to be prayiing together and feeding each other. Trust is hard so far away but love like its says is not jealous, is it jealous thoughts driving you two to act this way? I don't think moving and marriage are a good idea to go forth with without sorting things out. Get some married women around you for fellowship. Not married just one year, but many years. Love ya and I'll go pray!:prayer:
