Four days ago I was struggling. I did the tough thing and let the guy know it felt too much like dating. I let him know that the point of 6 month without dating was to learn to lean on God and not expect a man to solve my problems. He seemed disappointed but was kind and said that I needed to do what was right for me.
Not dating has given me a chance to reflect on things. It's hard to admit mistakes, but I can admit I never should have dated Mr. X. He showed me who he was two weeks into dating. I should have believed him.
It's been a month of growth and challenges and seeing God at work. I have been relying more on God, but at the same time, I think I could be spending more time with Him. It's something I will continue to work on.
The best part is being in a better place emotionally. The saying "let go and let God" sounds trite when offered as advice from well-meaning people. One month further down the road in my journey of life, I can see the truth in that phrase. God can handle anything so much better than I can if I will let Him.
