What God’s Been Teaching Me About Love Lately
I have been in such a real season lately where God keeps bringing me back to the importance of relationships. With this move coming up and selling all my stuff, everything feels so real. And when my boyfriend came to visit for my birthday, it honestly hit me how much I had been missing with him. Long distance makes it easy to act like everything is fine, but seeing him in person showed me the little ways I had been neglecting our relationship. Not on purpose, just because life gets loud. It reminded me that love is honestly the most important thing we have. The Bible talks about that a lot. It reminds us that men are called to lead and women are called to support. And I know people hear that and think it means something old. But it is not that. Supporting your partner does not mean shrinking yourself. It means bringing peace. It means helping where he needs it. It means speaking life over him. It means being his strength when he is tired. Eve came from Adam’s rib which shows that we walk side by side. Equal. Different roles. Same worth. And I have been struggling with that balance. I live in a place where everyone is obsessed with work and career. And I love working too, but I have noticed that if something does not align with my purpose, it drains me. God has been showing me that my mission starts with the people He gave me. My family. My relationship. My friendships. If God has been showing you something about love or partnership lately and you feel comfortable sharing, I would love to hear it. These conversations always help me grow too.
