Are You Dating? Be Picky!

Do not be mismatched with unbelievers. For what partnership is there between righteousness and lawlessness? Or what fellowship does light have with darkness! - 2 Corinthians 6:14

If you're still searching for that special someone, be patient, be prudent, and be picky. Look for someone whose values you respect, whose behavior you approve of, and whose faith you admire. Remember that appearances can be deceiving and tempting, so watch your step. And when it comes to the important task of building a lifetime relationship, pray about it!

If you happen to be one of those very lucky persons who has already fallen madly in love, say a great big thanks to the Matchmaker in heaven. But if you haven't yet found your love, don't fret. Just keep trusting in God, and keep your self open to the direction in which He is leading you. And remember: When it comes to selecting someone, God wants to give His approval - or not - but He wont give it until He's asked. So ask, listen, and decide accordingly.

Heavenly Father,
We are glad that You know all things. We bring the request for a partner to You, and trust that You will choose a partner that will complement us in the task that You have given us.
Amen

2 Corinthians 6:14-18

New Century Version (NCV)

Warning About Non-Christians

14 You are not the same as those who do not believe. So do not join yourselves to them. Good and bad do not belong together. Light and darkness cannot share together. 15 How can Christ and Belial, the devil, have any agreement? What can a believer have together with a nonbeliever? 16 The temple of God cannot have any agreement with idols, and we are the temple of the living God. As God said: “I will live with them and walk with them. And I will be their God, and they will be my people.”[a]
17 “Leave those people,
    and be separate, says the Lord.
Touch nothing that is unclean,
    and I will accept you.” Isaiah 52:11; Ezekiel 20:34, 41
18 “I will be your father,
    and you will be my sons and daughters,
    says the Lord Almighty.” 2 Samuel 7:14
