Relationship with Christ as the Focal Point!

Relationships are: complicated, fun, dramatic, goofy and even stressful. Boys are like unending puzzles and most people are always missing that last puzzle piece. Girls search and search for that “perfect guy.” Along the way people sacrifice one of Gods most precious gifts. Couples build relationships on false foundations like; physical attraction, popularity and common interest such as partying! The relationship ends in heartbreak and then you’re left confused and hurt. You have this sick empty feeling in your stomach like someone just punched you and all you want to do is sleep and be alone. Not all relationships are bad and not all end in heartbreak, butthe majority of people that date just to date, experience heartbreak time after time. That last puzzle piece is actually the most important piece in the entire puzzle. It gives you a sense of completion and fullness. It finally makes you feel like you can overcome anything. That last puzzle piece is God.

All relationships should start on a firm unshakeable foundation. God is that platform. As a couple you should discuss you spiritual relationship with Christ and encourage one another to grow each and every day! I know you are thinking…”Say what? No way we’re too young and that’s awkward!” But the truth is having a relationship with God as the focal point makes relationships a tad bit less stressful! (THERE WILL STILL BE STRESS but this gives you a firm foundation) I encourage you to discuss your boundaries and hold each other to them. It’s easy…SAID NO ONE EVER! It’s not easy but it is possible! Pray together, pray for each other and spend time in the word together! These things will make you a powerhouse couple! 

I speak from experience. I have been dating my boyfriend for over 2 years and we started out our relationship on a foundation with Christ. It has made us so much stronger! It can be done!:) Our relationships not perfect, and there is stress but that’s true for anyone! My boyfriend pushes me to grow and I couldn’t be more grateful! 

When you find the right guy don’t make God that last puzzle piece!!! MAKE HIM FIRST!:)  And single ladies…DON’T SETTLE!

Xoxoxox Katelynn!
