Christianity Oasis Member Forum & Chat Room

Well as I see many here, this is my first day. My trials, my concerns, the light of truth? Yikes...... Well, my dilemma.... I am struggling with my faith and a relationship. I have been in a long term relationship with a man whom has no real active faith. Doesn't honor my faith by wanting to marry me, and I am having a hard time with ending the relationship because I feel it is the right thing to do because it is what my faith teaches. I love this man more than life it self, he is what I want for my life, whom I want to spend the rest of my life with, we have been together 7 years, we don't live together. But I am too the point I want full commitment or nothing. He is terrified of commitment due to a really bad marriage and divorce. We have tried many times to walk away, but we can never stay apart. I am confused and struggling. I want to do what is right with my faith. But he just cant take the marriage step and he will never be able to with anyone, he will never marry again, it isn't just me. I am so torn and broken hearted.

Hello Michellelynn, Welcome to the Oasis. We are delighted to have you here.

Sounds like your a bit torn sis...honoring your Father in Heaven...or staying with someone who might not be right for you. Sis...I want to suggest that you reach out to Jesus and ask Him to help you grow nearer to Him and make Him first in your life. Then you will begin to see God working in your life and He will guide and direct your path in all things...including your relationship with this man. God's path will bring peace...peace that you honestly deserve.

You are now on your way to finding that peace.

Again welcome and I hope to meet you in the chatroom sometime.

Take care and God Bless
