"Take God on a date"

Here are a few more quotes from the next chapter of "Boundaries in dating":

  • "It is good to want a spiritually based relationship. Your relationships with God is the deepest, most profound, and most important part of your soul.If relationship is about connecting all of ourselves to another, then the spiritual aspect is inconceivably significant . So we all yearn for a person that we can be one with, all the way down to the core self, where God resides also. In fact, God designed our need to connect." 
  • "Through many experiences, conversations, and questions, we settle in on a person who loves God as we do, one who can help us grow even closer to Him."
  • "The issue is not how to fit our spiritual life into our dating life; rather, it is how to fit our dating life into our spiritual life."
  • "Life and love are God's gifts under His domain." 
  • "The One who designed emotional connections knows best conducted, in a way that is satisfying for us and glorifying to Him."
  • "It is good to offer our dating life as part of the living sacrifice that helps submit all aspects of our lives to God's order for our existence. The more our lives are surrendered to Him, the more He is able to fashion out lives as we were meant to be." 
  • "The alternative to surrender in dating is idolatry."
