Challenging Times Are NOT a Sign to Move On

Full Video: https://youtu.be/ERe5bSPPRFE If You Want to Run from This Person Because They Are Challenging You to Be the Person You Know God Has Called You to Be, This Is a Sign the Lord Does Not Want You to Move On I’m not talking about that person who thinks they need to shape you into their own image. I’m not talking about someone who badgers you because they think you should be better than they think you currently are. Rather, I’m talking about that person who motivates you to live better not just by their words but simply by the way they live their own life. Sometimes the best people to be around are the ones who challenge us the most. Again, for a relationship to work between a man and woman, there must be mutual respect. One person can’t take the role of the teacher while the other takes the role of a student. That is unhealthy for a romantic relationship. But sometimes God will put you with a person who will cause you to grow because they will challenge how you have been living your own life. Their ideas about God, dating, and life may contradict some of things you believed before you met them. Your wounds from the past may perfectly clash with their wounds from the past, causing you both to need to deal with these wounds to grow individually and together. As Proverbs 27:17 explains, “As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.”
