Sometimes we have to walk away from a relationship that’s not Godly, and it hurts.
Have you ever loved someone that didn’t want a relationship with Jesus?
Sometimes walking away can be one of the hardest decisions. But you know in your heart it’s the right thing to do.
If you love someone that’s not a believer, you need to let them go. Let God have that person. Pray 🙏🏻 for him or her.
We are called to the Narrow Road. It’s what the Lord has chosen for us. Matthew 7
14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.
If you-“’Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind, then you have found the Narrow road that leads to life.
Don’t miss what God has for you. For all His promises are yes and Amen in Christ Jesus our Lord! 2 Corinthians 1:20
When you choose to follow Jesus. He will take you places you never dreamed 💜
Dear children of the Light~ Remember this always, 1 Peter 2:9
But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.
God loves you!

Sometimes a heart that needs to be new needs to be broken.
Such a painful experience for far to many. Its so personal, devastating, and brings us to the valley of dispair and pain.
But God....oh i love this phrase...but God.....
He can make beauty from ashes, he can restore our soul, he is our redeemer (our restorer) that promises us things more than we could ever hope for.
Oh this old heart, how can we trust it? For the lord says it is wicked and deceitful, therefore we must trust the Lord whos mercies are from everlasting, who shall bring peace to the troubled soul and bind up the broken hearted.
For he knows our frailties, and has tasted our dispair.

I agree that you may need to walk away from a romantic relationship (or potential thereof) where the other person is not a believer. I don't believe you need to walk away from other kinds of relationships simply for the same reason. We are called to be salt and light in the world, not to avoid it.

There are situations where walking away may still be appropriate: where the person is repeatedly causing you harm. Then you set and enforce a boundary. If the other person repents and changes their behaviour, you may reconsider.

In any case, it's worthwhile seeking the Lord's guidance for any relationship that is causing you concern. :)
