I’ve never really thought about God too much in my life. I would talk to him in tough times, but rarely say anything to Him in my daily life. However, very recently a good friend of mine answered my question on how to get more spiritual. She said, “Having a relationship with God is like having a relationship with a friend. You have to talk to him often, and over time, a relationship forms. He even starts answering back.”
This ‘good friend’ is my now ex-girlfriend. As of writing this it has been 3 days since we broke up. I am absolutely heart-broken. She was the first girl I truly loved in a very long time, and I’m trying to get through it as best I can. I am constantly thinking about the good times, the things I could have done differently, the faults I have in my personality…
But I can’t keep dwelling on these things. I think it is okay to do for a couple days, but after that it serves no purpose but to bring me down. It is a perfect time to strengthen my relationship with God. I have to trust that He knows what is best for me, that He has a plan, and that things will get better. I try to talk to him often, but I often forget. With my usual habits and the busy state of my life, I have to learn to stop and just talk to him about things. I do have faith though, I have faith that everything happens for a reason, that God takes away and puts people in your life for a reason.
I will use this time to strengthen myself, better my life, and talk to God most of all.
