Remember that God trancends all traditions and customs! At times, he even defied tradition! (Matthew 15:6 NIV) Don't let tradition and custom hold you back when when God can make a way in the wilderness! Trust God and don't look at this situation in the natural but in the spiritual (I Corinthians 5:7). I would also encourage you to begin seeking God's Face for your future husband and BELIEVE that God will not give you a snake if you ask for a fish! (Matthew 7:10) Remember: the devil will usually put out his best before God puts out His Best! You must be patient and wait upon the Lord if you really want the man God has for you. Don't settle for second best. You won't be happy in the long run. I would pray for God to give me the strength to break this relationship off in a peaceful way and it will be very important for you to do whatever it takes to keep yourself built up in your most holy faith (Hebrews 11) such as a prayer partner, church, Christian music, keeping your thoughts in check and so on while you wait on God so that you can stand against the wiles of the enemy (Ephesians 6). I pray this encourages you and that you find hope and direction! As for others talking about you behind your back: if you are innocent of the accusation-don't worry about it. Jesus was talked about, too. However, if you are guilty of what they are saying, repent. Be blessed! :HiBye:

Hello! My input would be to give it time (James 1:19) and test the spirits (1 John 4:1). Everything has a time (Ecclesiates 3:1-8). Be patient, pray and watch the 'fruits' of this persons life. You will get your answer! I would not worry about what anyone else said as you don't know facts yet but make a determination from your own observation and listening to God. Be blessed!
