I had almost lost faith and believed that perhaps I was done with relationships, being in a partnership, and getting married (lol even though I had only been in one "relationship" that was only 3 months). But then I had an epiphany: the problem with my first relationship was that it wasn't centered on God or led by Christ. Instead, it was guided by us, and when humans make decisions on their own, we often fall short. We let negative thoughts cloud our judgment, and that was ultimately the issue. However, God and Jesus are stronger than our shortcomings. Their guidance brings clarity, peace, and joy that surpass human understanding. When we rely on our own decision-making, selfishness, manipulation, fear, and even biological instincts can get in the way. But when we allow God to lead, everything becomes clearer and more purposeful.
