Have you had this feeling before; you see two young people in love, you get this smiley face but the next moment, you hear they have broken up and there's this awkward feeling "what really happened". Did their love vanish or what? You tend to ask yourself many questions which all the answers seems futile. I recently discovered, the reason why many relationships are breaking us is due to wrong motives and wrong agent of connection. People are in a relationship for financial gain, sex, pleasure, peer pressures to mention but few. All these reasons or agent of connections have expiry date but there's only one that doesn't have expiry date because it can be passed on in the future to children- thus Purpose!
The
simplest definition for relationship per my understanding is the “state of connection or been connected”.
You don’t enter a relationship with someone unless you are already connected to
the person. You relate with your family because there is already a “blood connection”; you relate with your
friends because of “common interest
connection” as well as you relate with God due to “Spirit connection”. Finally, you relate with boyfriend/girlfriend
or husband /wife due to “purpose
connection” therefore you need to discover the “agent of connection” before the relationship can start.
The
question is “what connects you to that
man/woman? If you realize that, what connects you and the person you have
interest in is other than PURPOSE, then that cannot lead to marriage in a Godly
function. The only connection that leads to being husband/wife is Purpose! Common interest is friendship
connection, blood is family connection so before you even decide to enter a
relationship that leads to marriage, you first need to know your purpose, your need to know the timing for your purpose and destiny- getting your timing
right, you can’t
tell me a 10years old person who knows his/her purpose can enter a
relationship.
Now, you should also ascertain if that relationship is for purpose
or not because you need to connect to that person sake of purpose. After
knowing your purpose and timing and whether you need that relationship at that
point in time, you need to also know the other person’s purpose if it
compliments yours- not an opposite purpose.
NB: Never enter a relationship because of your
intense sexual, emotional drive because there will come a stage that your
emotional drive will be heightened- that should not be the motive for the
relationship but, the motive for the relationship should be to connect you to
your helper for your God-given purpose!! You need a relationship because of Purpose!!
