So my boyfriend and I are are both Christians and we've both been raised in Christian homes. Right from the start, we've done our best to keep our relationship different than those in the world. By that I mean not focusing our lives completely around each other, controlling our jealousy, remaining pure, and realizing there's more to life than just each other. I admit it's been hard. I mean, I cant control the butterflies sometimes :eek: and sometimes allll I can think about is him. I dont find anything wrong with that :)
But our main purpose is to remain serving God and living for Him. We want to keep reading His word and keep a close relationship with Him.
So to insure that we can live life without needing each other constantly and turn to God, we've decided to go one month without talking. There's nothing wrong between us. We just want to prove that we depend on God more than each other. No texting. No Facebook (we deleted our accounts). No phone calls. No letters. Nothing. I thought it would be fine. I mean,its not like we're over. If anything, this will make us stronger. But yesterday was the first day without talking. I broke down last night and called him. I feel so ignored that he didnt answer. I know its me being selfish, wanting his attention, but I can't help it. We've been together 8 months and yesterday was the first time I hadn't spoken a word to him.
So pretty much, Im asking for prayer from anyone who reads this. I know things will be fine, I still have God. But I really really need strength. My heart feels all broken inside without him. And i have to go 29 more days. :(
It may seem like a little problem and no big deal, but I miss my best friend all ready. Please pray.
Love In Christ.♥
P.S. Forgot to mention... we live on opposite sides of the country. :/

Dear faithful Sister. I pray that you are not too disapointed in yourself. That was quite a fast to put on yourself. I am sure whether you complete the task or not, God will appreciate and cheresh your desire to please Him.

I too have been separated from the one I love, it is not easy.

I pray God will give you a special blessing and provide you with other good things to occupy your time, and will keep your heart filled with joy thinking of your wonderful reunion, in Jesus name, Amen

Love in Jesus Christ
