When You’re Dating: Will She Encourage Your Faith?
Do strong dating relationships just happen, more or less by accident, or are they carefully chosen? I guess the answer is both. Sometimes you plan the relationship. And sometimes you are startled to realize that you have fallen in love with someone you thought was just a friend. A key question is what to do when you realize that you are getting deeper and deeper into a relationship with someone who is not a Christian.
It’s just not a good idea for a Christian to marry a non-Christian. “Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common?” (2 Corinthians 6:14). Granted--that is a principle, not a law. It is possible, of course, that you may help an unbeliever come to faith in Christ. But it is just as likely that the nonbeliever will become a boat anchor in your spiritual life and drag you under.
What will married life be like if your faith in Christ is just tolerated? mocked? sabotaged? resented?
Wouldn’t you rather go through life with someone who will pray for you? pray with you? go to church with you? read the Scripture with you? sing hymns with you? receive Holy Communion with you? be a true partner in raising your children as Christians?

Marriage is an amazing gift from God, but it is also hard. Many marriages struggle - partners either don’t know how to treat each other or they know and don't want to change. These devotions, one for each day of your month, are for married people, for those who hope to be married, and for all of you who used to be married. Re-listen to God's words about this sacred institution and rededicate your ways to be more like his ways.
