Please pray that God's direction will be given to us. We both are saved Christians that are coming back to a closer walk with the Lord. This is scary for me because I have love for someone who needs to first find God's will for himself, and it may not include me. He was in the ministry many years ago, and because of life circumstances, has blocked God, and therefore, any relationships from crossing the safe lines he has drawn. I met him 2 years ago, and we have many life situations in common, share our convictions, and as I said, are coming back home to a closer walk. I feel (I don't know what else to call it) such strong and stirring gut feelings that we will be right together, but because of his background, has many walls and insecurities about what he really wants/needs in his life. I left our relationship two weeks ago because of a situation that I believe stems from the above past hurts, but felt STRONGLY to go back to the relationship rather than letting it go, in spite of being extremely hurt at the situation. At the time, I was beginning to pursue a closer walk with the Lord, but he was NOT. I believe as a result of my leaving, he re-thought his life, and wanted to do things differently this time, to not make the same mistakes as before, to not just move on to any other relationship. He had a real convicting spiritual experience, and as a result, is seeking to contact
people he had left in the past (a strong pastor he was close to), to re-connect with his life in the ministry, and to be open to God again. When I tell him how I feel, that I want us to grow as individuals and together in the Lord, he said that a large part of him feels the same way, but everything is so new again, that he doesn't want to make the same mistakes, so just wants us to grow in our individual lives with the Lord, and see what happens with us. I feel that things are happening, doors opening, almost that I'm being carried from day to day, waiting for the Lord to give us answers. I don't know if what I feel is the Lord giving me answers, is the answer to my prayers, that quickening in my heart when I pray,but I just ask for prayer for him, me and for us if it is to be the Lord's will. And that we will be shown in a definite way, the way to go.
Thank you all.
