Bible Question: There's this guy that i really like, i dont know why but i never have noticed him before until we started talking. I like him because he looks into my eyes when we talk. Anyways, one day he asked me to go to a party at school and there was going to be drinking. He told me he would come pick me up, but at the last minute i said i decided not to go. Later on he asked me why i changed my mind and i told him that i dont drink, and now i think he wont talk to me anymore. I feel really hurt and that i never should have told him that i dont drink. I dont know what to do. Should i feel hurt? Should i have not told him? |
Bible Answer: Hi WingofAngels, Though he may seem like a nice guy, if he likes alcohol more than you, listen to that. When people demonstrate to you by their actions the kind of people they are, believe them. Jesus said that we will know people by the fruit they bear. When we see their fruit, don't ignore it. God is trying to save you from heartache down the line. Hold out for the guy who values praying with you, and reading the Bible with you, and taking you to church, and who truly demonstrates maturity in Christ. Wait for the guy who is willing to wait for you. And stand up for what is right. I wish more were like you! Love in Christ, Mark |
