“Sometimes I worry that I’m a terrible Christian. A lot of times actually. I worry that I sin too much and that I don’t pray or read my Bible enough. I worry that I don’t even share my faith enough and that I don’t give enough. Sometimes I worry that I am a complete failure. And then it hits me I AM a complete failure. I’m a terrible Christian. But Jesus is perfect. And by faith, I belong to Him. So I keep trying my best and even though I worry that my best is terrible. He credits me with His Perfection and then covers my failures with Grace.”

Si tan solo pudieras estirar tu mano y tocar a la divina persona del Espíritu Santo tu vida cambiaria y se transformaria

NO necesitas tatuarte “Jesús” en el brazo. Necesitas la Ley de Dios escrita en tu corazón.

A woman without a man is still a woman. A lover. A sister. A daughter. A friend. A mother. She isn’t lost. Her name isn’t lonely or angry black woman. She isn’t thirsty? She isn’t hunting for a male to carry home. She is aware of her fire; herself. Nothing can quench her thirst besides God. He alone satisfies her soul. A woman without a man is still a poem, the world is trying to understand. She is woman, every morning. every blessed day.

Mutual Friends

So as Christians, we’re supposed to only date other Christians and make sure to be “equally yoked” with our spouse. What does that even mean? We’re supposed to make our eggs the same way? Naw.

I’ve dated a few guys in my short twenty two years on this earth. Some most of them have not been Christians and the others haven’t been as strong in their faith. But, about 34% of guys I’ve dated have played the God card on me to get out of a relationship (which PS that freaking sucks and I think is total BS).

I’ve thought a lot that maybe having God as the center of a relationship isn’t thaaaaat important. Like, I could totally pursue God and date someone who isn’t. It was pretty much just a technicality and I could totally skip out on it.

But falling in love with the Creator of the Universe has so completely soaked my life that I can’t just leave that part out. God is woven into in my life that I can’t really not talk about Him or live a life without Him. ***side note - that’s definitely NOT me saying that I am a super Christian. I most definitely am not. I’m actually not a walking model of a Proverbs 31 Woman and I’m a hot mess that totally operates and relies on the grace of God to get me through every day*** What I mean by that is that God has impacted my life in such a way that I can’t help but talk about it. I can’t help but wonder about Him and I can’t help but to continue to learn about Him and worship him.

I think when we have God in the context of a dating relationship it’s like having a mutual friend. I know who God is, I’ve been friends with him for a while now. And the person I’d date knows who God is because they’ve been friends for a while. And we don’t know God in the same way, but we both know God. But we can talk for hours about things that we’ve learned from this mutual friend and we can share our experiences and our relationships with this mutual friend. And we can hangout with this friend together.

But without knowing that mutual friend? In my experience, it’s like I can’t be fully myself with the person I’m dating - I don’t know what to talk about. There’s not a common platform, there’s no commonality in the way that we see the world, the same beliefs don’t shape the way we see things. I can’t talk about this mutual friend because the person I’m dating maybe hasn’t even met this friend yet.

I’m just waiting for this mutual friend to set me up with the love of my life. Because that’s what mutual friends do, right? They know their friends so well that they have the ability to say, “I think you would be great for this person!”.
