Ready to RemarrySample
Go or No-Go?
The Bible warns us not to rush into anything. If we hurry, we make mistakes. If we are hasty, the Bible says we will come into poverty. However, if we pray and wait upon the Lord, our plans will be diligent, leading to an advantage. That's why it's wise to work through any relationship issues before remarrying.
Suggestions
It would be best to be confident about remarrying before introducing children into your relationship. That's why it's wise to take some time to evaluate if your remarriage is a go or no-go exercise. Consider the following questions.
- Are there relationship issues you still need to resolve? Those are red lights.
- Do you have any concerns?
- How confident are you that it's time to remarry?
Suppose you're not confident. In that case, it's best to continue working through the red lights before introducing children into your relationship. You may need to seek the help of a professional Christian counselor. The other option is to consider putting the brakes on the relationship altogether. The last thing you want to do is rush into a remarriage.
Prayer
Thank you, Lord, for this opportunity to learn and hear your voice. God help me not to be the one who looks at myself in the mirror and then forgets what they look like right after. I ask that your words and ways be written on my heart. I will not forget all I have discovered about myself and this situation. I want to be a good steward of all the hearts involved. Please help me to stay in my lane and not be controlling. I give complete control to you, God. Speak to me now if this is not what will be best for me or if I am not ready to step into this role. Holy Spirit, I need your guidance to help me through this. I will keep my heart open, ears keen to hear you, and my mouth slow to speak. Lead me and teach me, God. I love you and am ready to listen to you. Whether you say this is a go or no-go, I will listen to you, God. In Jesus' name, amen.
