It is certainly important to have goals...but these should help us walk along with The Lord. And whatever comes to our way, He should come first. When we choose Him first the rest is added by Him, is important to obey and have faith. Whether is a bad choice we made or a partner that does not help us walk our way to The Lord, pray for guidance, and once you receive it, follow it. Beware, make sure you are hearing the voice of the Lord. If the partner is not right, do not question, God knows better than all of us together, for our wisdom is based on temporary things, therefore is nothing; He in the other hand has all power and wisdom to guide us and provide us with a Heavenly Fatherhood love, for He is indeed our Father. He only wants us to come back home safe, and He knows how we can do it, so let's listen.
