I don't believe in equally yoked anymore as seen this time

[Dexter2020]

I don't believe in equally yoked anymore as seen this time I dated a so called "Christian" and it is the Christian who broke my heart severely as she is not interested in me but came off as dismissive and someone who is interested in church activities but have no time for me and since Jesus cannot answered my prayer and gave me this type of "Christian" rude and dismissive and I can choose people out of the religion and it means to severe my ties and all connection with him so be it anyway Jesus doesn't care. Why bother when everything come apart and it is means that I cannot merry it church but ROM so be it. This is the thing that he want and I cannot even trust him with my job it is an agony of waiting for nothing so I just got to be me instead of focus on Christianity equally yoked. Because this is the qualities of "Christian" in a relationship to be dismissive to my feeling and self centered. I am not blaming Jesus or anything but the qualities of Christian who is not bearing the fruits of the holy spirit (love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance)is just sick and is the caused where I am prepared for a marriage and a relationship but she isn't. But she is more interested in church building and ministries to earn God grace and neglected me throughout the whole relationship throwing cold violence towards me. Although I am called to marriage and train my kids in the ways of the lord but I can't be with one who preach but do not practice and neglected the feeling of me letting me carried the emotional baggage and only when she needs me then contact me and was like a transactional relationship. Jesus just don't get it sometimes.

We understand that you're hurting, Dexter2020, and we're here to pray with you and guide you according to God's word. First, let's address your disappointment with the concept of being "equally yoked." The Bible encourages us not to be unequally yoked with unbelievers (2 Corinthians 6:14, WEB), and that's because our relationships significantly influence our spiritual lives. However, even among Christians, we're not perfect, and we can hurt each other.

You mentioned that the person you dated was dismissive and more interested in church activities than your relationship. It's important to remember that even Christians can fall short of God's glory (Romans 3:23, WEB). The fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23, WEB) should indeed be evident in a believer's life, and it's disheartening when that's not the case. However, let's not confuse someone's imperfect behavior with Jesus' unfailing love and care for you.

Jesus tells us, "Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest" (Matthew 11:28, WEB). He cares about your pain, and He wants to comfort you. In times like these, it's crucial to draw near to God, not pull away from Him.

Let's pray:

"Father, we lift up Dexter2020 to You. Lord, heal his broken heart and comfort him in his pain. Help him to remember that even when people fail us, You never do. Guide him to someone who loves You and will love him as You intend. Give him the strength to trust You with his future and his relationships. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Regarding your mention of finding someone outside the church, we encourage you to consider God's design for marriage—a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman who both love and serve the Lord (Ephesians 5:22-33, WEB). This doesn't mean you should limit your search to people within your church walls, but rather, seek someone who shares your faith and commitment to God.

Lastly, it's concerning that you mention Jesus doesn't care. Scripture assures us that He does (1 Peter 5:7, WEB). He cares about every detail of your life, and He has a purpose and a plan for you (Jeremiah 29:11, WEB). Hold onto that promise, and don't lose heart. Keep trusting in Him, even when it's difficult.

Let's end with this encouragement: "We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose" (Romans 8:28, WEB). Trust that God is working in your life, even in this challenging time.

Praying in Jesus Name.

Hey there,

We're really sorry to hear that you're going through this, but we're here for you. It's understandable to feel disheartened, especially when someone who claims to be a Christian has hurt you. It's like finding out that the horse you thought was pulling your wagon is actually a donkey, right?

But remember, even donkeys have their uses, and God can use all situations for our good. The person you dated might not have been the right yoke for you, but that doesn't mean all Christians are like that. There are plenty of horses out there, pulling their weight and running with the Lord.

We know it's hard to trust again, but don't let this one experience sour you on all Christians. Keep your eyes open for the genuine ones. They're out there, and they're worth waiting for.

And hey, even if Jesus doesn't seem to be answering your prayers right now, that doesn't mean He's not listening. Sometimes, His answers are 'wait', 'no', or 'not yet'. But He's always working things out for our good, even when we can't see it.

So, chin up, buttercup! Keep trusting in the Lord, and let's pray together, okay?

"Dear Lord, please heal Dexter2020's broken heart. Help him to forgive and to trust again. Show him the right path and the right people. Give him strength and courage to keep moving forward. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Stay strong, friend. You're not alone.

I'm wondering, do you want God for who He is or for what He can give you? God is always supposed to be our first Love... He has to come first. We are following Him and His will, need to lay down our life and live for Him. Seek first His kingdom, and His righteousness, And the rest will be added to you. That's a Bible verse. If that was what the Christian lady was doing, she is being obedient to the Bible, which is God's word. I gently want to nudge you to do the same. Seek Him first. I'm sorry if she has been rude or whatsoever to you though.

Also, we can't force anyone into a relationship either. People have free will and Jesus always respects our free will choices. We should too.
Invest in getting to know Jesus better, make Him your focus and learn from Him, for He is gentle and humble of heart (Matthew 11:28-30).
