How do we know when it's the wrong guy?

God knows exactly what man he has for us, but the question is... how do we know? When deciding whom we should date it could kinda feel like walking into a room with all the lights turned off. We cannot read a guys mind and know what he wants, or how he feels. So in a sense we are blinded. But we do not have to be in that dark room alone. Our Father who watches us so carefully, can see so clearly in all darkness. He is the only one that can see and truly know a man's heart. It says in 1chronicles 28:9 "...for the Lord searches every heart and understands every motive behind the thoughts." So if we serve a all knowing God, than why do not trust him? In fact, when it comes to our dating lives we have basically shut him out completely! We chose to trust our own wisdom verse the all powerful wisdom of our Lord God. Ladies lets give up our control we so dearly hold on to when it comes to being in relationships. Let us move forward setting out dating guidelines according to the word of God. But we can only know what that looks like if we are reading His word daily. For now here are some things to think about...... If our relationship is not helping us grow closer to Christ, than it probably isn't the one. A boyfriend should encourage us to put Christ as our first love. If we have to pull away from our friends and family when in a relationship, than something isn't right. We can only see a persons true character when we see the way he treats the people we love most. Also, if he isn't the man of your dreams right now, he won't be in a year from now either. Ladies God desires the best for us and all we have to do is trust Him. Nobody says it's going to be easy, but how else does God build our faith and prove his love to us!
