Anxiety Over Online Relationships Advice

Anxious About A Relationship - Online?

I have prayed for you and I am concerned about what you wrote in your inquiry. My ministry is full time on the Internet, and I know there are people who go online and are not who they say they are.  Being careful is of utmost importance and you want to place yourself totally in the hands of the Holy Spirit for direction when a person wants to draw you into relationship via a social network website.

You are telling me that you have a relationship with a person online.  My question for you is, Have you met this person in the flesh? If so you need to make contact with other people who know him, and find out more about his background. If this was an online contact, you need to find out if he is really a follower of Jesus. If he is in fellowship with a good church, you need to try to get in contact with the Pastor of that church, and see what this person is all about, is he faithful to church and living right.

Most of all, pay attention to the 'red flag' that you call 'anxious' because that may be good reason to break off this relationship. When you meet the right person you should check him out carefully, and have no 'red flags' to deal with after you have all the information from others about him.

God says in His word,  "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith Jehovah, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope in your latter end." Jeremiah 29:11.

God is more interested in you finding the right person than you are. Hang in there and make sure you are moving in circles where Godly men are gathering. I had the most wonderful marriage for 50 years, but I met her in a Church where the people were real followers of Jesus.
