I am currently single. But recently about a few months ago me and this boy that goes to my church, he happens to be the pastors son, I noticed that I was starting to see him in a different way. And at the moment I thought I was crazy but I felt like God was telling me that that’s who I’m going to marry or that that’s who he wants me to marry. And I thought that for a few months and I prayed and prayed about it and ask God to take those thoughts away if it wasn’t for his glory or it wasn’t what he wanted for me. And one day I went to go visit my mom because I currently live with my dad and she said she wanted to talk to me about something. Mind you, I’ve never ever ever mentioned this boy to my mom. And for a long time I was praying to God to show me and sign if he really is the one for me. And my mom wanted to have a talk with me and she said the following “I don’t know if I’m crazy or if this is all in my head but I feel like God really, really wants me to tell you this. I think that you and the pastors son are meant to be more then just friends. I think that you guys will do extraordinarily things for the lord and he wants you to know that.” At the moment I was so shook and I started to cry. I was so overwhelmed with emotions because the thought I have been having taht I thought were from God but I wasn’t sure so I just kept denying it, it ended up being true. And once I got back home he said that he urgently needed to talk to me about something. And he said the following “I know this is going to sound crazy, and I know that this is completely out of the blue. But I truly feel that this is what God is telling me. I think that God wants us to be more then friends. Maybe husband and wife one day.” And at that moment I started to cry and cry. He said that he have been praying about it for about 5 months and the answer has never seemed so clear. And I have been praying about it for about the same amount of time. We talk about things and for now we are just friends. We are both very very young, he is 17 and I am 16. And for now we want to focus on God and have God be the main focus of our life. Because we don’t want to have to be in a committed relationship at such a young age. We want our relationship with the lord to be as solid as can be before we decide to go further into our relationship. This dating video really helped me see some views on what I should work on and what I should consider once me and this guy start dating. So thank you so much for this video and so sorry for the long story.

@@GentlemenJack109 confronting your heart is often difficult. I myself sin and fall short of the glory of God, as with everybody else in the world. While many struggle with addiction, lies, hatred, disobeying parents etc. Others struggle sexually. Dating an object is not Gods way or nature. In the recent years people have tried changing, twisting, misinterpreting and reinterpreting Gods word. But that will ultimately never change his judgment or ways. Our hearts are at many times deceitful and that is why we must trust God and not lean with our own understanding. I am also not here to judge you but to remind you that He will sooner or later judge you based off of your actions and believes. God wants you to follow him and his ways.

It is not the sex that will make you see if you two are right for one another. 5) date graciously. Be kind to yourself and the other person. 6) community; don’t isolate yourselves but get together with a prayer/ any group whom will help to let you know if both are good for one another. 7) date patiently; be wise and pray as you are dating somebody.

I’m 18, and I’m not a virgin. I thought that I owed my boyfriend (now my ex) sex, and I was too scared to have that conversation with him. I want the next time I have sex to be on my wedding night, and if a man doesn’t understand that, then he’s not the right man. If any young woman or man out there is reading this and feels like their SO is pressuring them to have sex (or even be intimate in any way), please know that you deserve better than that. Just because so many people have sex, doesn’t mean that you have to as well. I wish I had heard this when I was in that position.

Thank you for the advice!! ❤️ I recently began dating someone. And we both know our intentions. We have clarified where we want to take our relationship to. I also made it clear that I am saving myself for marriage and he respects that. I think what we may be struggling with is patience. Our relationship has developed fast in just a couple weeks. We already know that a forever is possible for with us as long as we put God always first. But, we are both still young, and I think although we seem to be focusing on our goal we may need to focus more on the process of getting there. It’s nice dreaming about our future together but I’m realizing that we should take a step back and ask, “okay, this is what we want. How will we achieve it?” Idk. But this was a nice reflection about my dating life rn. I really enjoyed the advice thank you so much❤️❤️ I look up to guys and you guys inspire me to have a relationship similar to you guys. A relationship that is full of love and is God fulfilling. I want to ask for your prayers. I pray that God guides me in my relationship and so that it turns into something beautiful. ❤️

I read in a book (Defining Decade by Meg Jay--10/10 recommend!!) that couples think that living together is a good way to test whether they'd work out as a married couple (seems logical). However, studies have shown that it is actually not a good way to test this because of what psychologist call the sliding effect. Most couples live together because they had already been sleeping over at each other's places so it would be more convenient to just live together. They just casually decide to live together; there's no serious commitment involved. People always rationalize that if they wanted to get out of the current situation, it would be easy because they're not married to the other person. (This is also flawed thinking. Obviously, moving out is much easier than getting divorced, but moving out is still much more difficult than just breaking up with someone.) Because couples *slide* into a situation that requires commitment without the actual commitment, they are more likely to drag their feet in getting married or they might *slide* into getting married without thinking of how much of a commitment it is. Don't quote me on this because I don't have the book in front of me. You can google "the sliding effect" for more informed information, though.

I understood she meant the goal is marriage, and it is a good thing to get married. When you‘re confident that the person you are with is “the one,” don’t put it off (putting it off will probably be harder and more tempting.) But don’t be rash and naive in making that decision, so take the time you need to make the decision to get married. I hope I got my point across. I’m sorry for the long paragraph.🙂

I live in an area where it's proving very difficult to meet men with this viewpoint and it has made dating very frustrating. Thank you for the reminder not to give up and settle. Honoring God first is always the best choice, even if that means remaining single. Keep speaking the truth and thank you for reminding me that I'm not alone in my beliefs! God bless you both.

It's not always easy but God's ways are the best. Agree? I could prob write a book on the difficult parts of dating lol but ultimately it has come down to two deal breakers for me. I don't drink/party and don't ascribe to the hook up culture that has become so acceptable. Never imagined it would be so hard to find someone who strives to put God first and of course a sense of humor never hurt 😜

Check out Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s wedding sermon. He’s famous for one that he wrote while imprisoned by the Nazis.. That “not wanting to text” mood though... It’s not exactly wrong. I’m more of a phone call kind of guy. I barely text my Mom. It’s also important to give grace to people and stick around long enough to get to actually know them. The most important, is that marriage is a commitment; One of the the biggest commitments one can make. And it’s nobody’s decision to make but your own. I’m of the mind that expecting God to give you a wife on a silver platter, and do the heavy lifting for you is not exactly correct. And our Christian dating culture is full of talk about it. I would expect that God, having sacrificed his only Son, would prefer us to learn what it’s truly like to lay down our lives for another person and commit to them, despite our own fear and misgivings. Just because something doesn’t “feel right” at any given moment doesn’t mean it’s wrong. As someone that’s looking towards marriage, I can tell you that not everything is rainbows and unicorns: I’m excited, but there have also been moments of anxiety, and I think that’s pretty natural. Imagine being a woman, and being given over to a complete stranger by your father 🙄 Choosing a husband or wife today is tame compared to how it used to be.
