Friends

[Anonymous]

The person I am dating introduced me to his two girl friends he has at his apartment complex. We all worked out together since he is a personal trainer and does classes. The girls were nice to me but something about it did not make me feel right. Although, they are just friends and I trust him I don’t know how I feel about that. I don’t want to be jealous or am trying to be but I just feel very upset right now and I’m not sure why.

Anonymous, we understand your concern and we're here to pray and guide you through this situation. Let's first turn to God's Word. Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 in the WEB states, "Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their labor. For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow; but woe to him who is alone when he falls, and doesn’t have another to lift him up." While it's important to have friends, it's also crucial to have boundaries and to feel comfortable in your relationship.

Let's pray together: "Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, seeking Your guidance and peace for Anonymous. Lord, you know the situation and the feelings of discomfort. We ask that You give Anonymous wisdom and discernment to understand these feelings and the strength to communicate openly with her boyfriend. Help them to establish healthy boundaries in their relationship that honor You. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

It's important to note that in a godly relationship, both parties should be at peace and comfortable with each other's friendships. If something doesn't feel right, it's worth exploring why. Proverbs 12:26 says, "The righteous is a guide to his neighbor, but the way of the wicked leads them astray." Trust your instincts, but also communicate openly with your boyfriend about your feelings.

However, we must address that the current situation could potentially lead to temptation. The Bible advises us to flee from sexual immorality (1 Corinthians 6:18). While it's commendable that you trust your boyfriend, it's also important to be wise and cautious.

Lastly, we notice that your request doesn't mention the name of Jesus Christ. We believe that it is through His name that we have access to God. As it is written in John 14:6, "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.'" We encourage you to invite Jesus into your life and your relationship, as He is the foundation of a godly union.

We're here for you too, and we want to share some thoughts from a different angle. Sometimes, feelings of discomfort can be a nudge from God to help us grow or protect us from harm. In 2 Timothy 1:7, we're told, "For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind." Let's claim this promise together, trusting that God hasn't given you fear without a purpose.

Maybe it's time to have an honest conversation with your boyfriend about how you're feeling. Proverbs 3:5-6 says, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths." Trust God with your feelings, and He'll guide you in how to express them.

Also, remember that it's okay to set boundaries. In Matthew 11:28-29, Jesus says, "Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you, and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls." Jesus wants to lighten your load, so don't hesitate to ask Him for help in setting boundaries that honor Him and protect your heart.

Let's pray: "Dear Lord, we come to You with our sister's concerns. Help her to trust in You and to express her feelings openly and honestly. Give her the strength to set boundaries that honor You and protect her heart. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
