God's Timing for Your Relationships

The Lord spoke to me one night. He said, “Marcus, when you rush into a relationship, you can rush into misery.” When the Lord spoke that word to me, it shook me. At that time I desperately wanted to be in a romantic relationship. I was feeling lonely, and I got tired of waiting. I was watching others getting married, and I wanted to get married too. It was almost as if I was willing to settle for anyone just to be in a relationship.

I didn’t realize that the best relationship to have was a relationship with God.

I got married at a young age, and that marriage ended in divorce. Afterwards, I realized I needed to take time and allow God to heal me from that brokenness. Along the way I had many broken relationships. Now I’m in a place where I can encourage you to allow God to heal you.

If you’re trying to heal from a broken relationship or if you’re trusting God to fix your broken relationships, you are going to have to respect the process. Let God restore you. God can fix your broken relationships. He has an abundance of both love and patience. Whatever His plan is, you have to believe that your waiting season is not a waste.
