Dating the Right Way

​1 John 3:18

"Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth."

Love is a four-letter word that we all desire to have in a relationship. Before we get to experience love, we have to date. Dating means going out to eat or on other formal outings to learn about a person and get to know them on a personal level. Many people treat dating like they’re applying for a job, which is why you cannot rush the process. 

There are some people who date solely to impress and are not genuine about who they are as a person or their intentions. After researching the qualities of Godly Dating, I discovered that the essence of it is when both people pull each other closer to God. Godly Dating also includes genuinely caring to get to know the other person and how you can help and encourage them. Godly Dating desires to uplift and support instead of focusing on what you can get from the other person. 

I hope this is a blessing to you.

Sincerely,

Trish
