God speaks

God speaks to us in ways familiar. I have been holding on to a dead relationship with a man whom has a different faith than myself. We have been in an off and on for four years now. Friends have told me that, aside from not being equally yoked, that this person is getting in the way of other men whom might be more compatible with me. Recently, a man moves into one of the rooms that was avaiable in his house. My on and off rents a room in a house with other people. This new man and I have talked at length about our shared faith, philosophy,common places that we have both lived and visited, history and the like. The first night that I met him, I told god secretly, that if he did not live under the same roof as my on and off that I would love to befriend him. The next day, my on and off told me that he is moving out of the house in January and into his own house. God was listening to me. Or it is just sheer coincidence. I am not certain.

This scene made me consider my motives in relation to my relatonship. God was speaking to me. God was saying that, Valerie, there are other options avaiable to you. You do not have to settle. While there is no romantic connection between me and the new guy, we are interested in establishing a friendship. He is new to the area and I have invited him to my church. My eyes are now open.

Why did I write this? I just needed to share.

Peace,
Valerie~
