Well, I"m new here but not new to posting. If you are married then yes, I think you should try everything to make it work. But I do think God has a plan for our lives and that he will lead us to the one we were meant to be with. I say that cause I was married two times and did not wait on God and it was a disaster, now I am waiting on God. I don't think its up to us to go out and find the one we want without praying about it first. It doesn't work and never lasts if it is not God's will. So many times we take matters into our own hands and then wonder why it didn't work out. I don't expect a lightning bolt but I do expect a door to open. When God is in something you know it, you also know it when he's not but sometimes do it anyway. I have experienced all of this. I made a wrong choice and now i'm living with the consequences because I have to leave but I am not married to him, engaged, but the relationship was formed when I wasn't walking close to God. I did love him very much. I just posted something in the testimonies about my relationship so I don't want to go through it again here but it is important to wait on the one God has for you.

We make mistakes sometimes and think something is going to work out and sometimes it does and then sometimes it doesn't. I'm not talking about marriage now but relationships. I'd rather wait on God than make another mistake.

Hey Lianson, I hear you, bro.

The thing is, some people do genuinely believe in fate, destiny, and a God who pulls all the strings. Though I'm a free will guy, I know others aren't.

So why bring this up?

I just wanted to note that not everyone who speaks about God's will are throwing their arms in the air or blowing smoke. I genuinely loved and strived in a relationship for over six months with a non-Christian girl. We thought we would get married, and we were happy.

Then, God confronted me about the situation. I had completely ignored Him the whole time, and started the relationship not caring about His approval. Considering I'm earnestly trying to live all my life and make all my decisions based in Him, this is/was not good. He dealt with me over the fact that I could choose this, but it was not what He had planned for me.

I broke off that, and that being the only broken off by me, relationship, and it was the hardest thing I've ever had to do. I realize the scepticism many migt meet with this, but it is my true experience. I will do anything for God, and He promises us in Scripture that such sacrifices are not in vain. I also know I'm not alone in this experience,
