It took a lot of strength and faith to ask him to leave and to cut off a physical relationship after so long. We are still together but in a different way now. I know it was the right thing to do but I am scared of loosing him also. I know we cannot be married for at least 3 to 5 years because of some situations in our lives we need to clear up. I need God to give me strength; the celibate life is not as easy as I imagined to be honest with you. I dont want to disappoint God but at the same time I am looking for loopholes which I know is wrong. I keep trying to figure out a way to make it ok. I have not broken my vow but I am nervous that I may. I hope this is not inappropriate; I really need some feed back on this. It is a hard topic to discuss. |
God Bless you for taking a stand to be celibate. God will bless you your decision. Just remember that you are in control of your life and life is not in control of you. I will keep you in my prayers that God will keep a Protective on you. It takes a lot of BOLDNESS to post the stand you have taken. God Bless you. ODIE
