Should I wait or should I start seeking?

[Mikeangelo7]

Hi, I came upon this site while searching the same question on Google. So I've been doing a whole lot of thinking and waiting
for the "right one". I'm to this point where I know that it is a God fearing woman I am looking for, I've had experiences dealing with my past girlfriends
which led me back to God. I've read that it's better to wait for the right "mate" and I've also read that we should seek one and that God doesn't provide us with one.
I believe if we carefully live a life according to God's Word and listening to instruction, we will be led to the right one. So right now I've been
seeking advice from friends on this, and I'm hearing different types of advice. There is this girl I've liked for awhile even before I was involved those past relationships
and I just started to notice her again and really caught my attention because to me she seems like the girl I feel I will get along with and by the way I found out we go to the same church,
is it better to wait on God's timing or should I go ahead and pursue her? I'm also afraid that she might say no if I try to ask her out. I've been praying for it and I really just don't know,
maybe God's has another woman waiting that I don't know of?

Matthew 6:33 King James Version (KJV)

33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths.
Proverbs 3:5-6

Be patient brother @Mikeangelo7

If this is the right girl for you...then the Lord will open up the way......"He shall direct thy paths"
His word says it....so it won't fail you.

I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, and in His word do I hope.
Psalm 130:5

This I feel is the best advice. Thank you sister. I feel more comfortable and more at peace when I just wait for God and this
is how I know this is the right way to go. They say God's timing is perfect.

"there is a time for everything and a season for every activity under heaven..." ecc. 3:1 ... keep the faith and wait unto the LORD... True love waits, that's for sure...:smiley:

Personally I believe God does have the right mate for us. but we tend to try to help GOD out so to speak and mess up many times?

But it easy enough to find out ? we just fast and ask Him and He will tell us what too do. Every part of our Lives is important to our Father God. Nothing is to small or unimportant to Him. He wants us happy here and Have nice healthy children and make a good living .

He really is the best Father ever. And He wants a Close daily relationship with us ,more than we want one.

You know? Every Good Dad and Mom wants the best for there kids . But they cannot always tell us what is best for us? But He not only can . He can make it happen Always.
But He wants us to ask and obey Him.
