Sometimes we equate another person’s choices as God’s will for us. But just because someone pursues you or expresses interest in you does not mean this is definitely the will of God for you to be with this person.
As I explained in my article called 4 Reasons a Christian Man Should Not Be Nice, I am using the phrase “nice guy” in a very specific way that may not mean the same thing you mean when you use that phrase.
Here are 4 reasons our Heavenly Father will allow his sons to suffer.
When someone says, “I don’t have any regrets in life,” this is usually not a healthy sign. If we don’t have regrets because we are too prideful to admit that we’ve done anything wrong, this is simply sinful, delusional thinking (Ephesians 2:3).
Some men who want to be married will remain single. That’s a different topic than what I’m talking about here. I’m talking about a man’s choice to intentionally remain single and not pursue a relationship with a woman that leads to marriage.
If these odd things happen to you, oftentimes it’s a sign you’ve truly heard the voice of God.
Perhaps you were doing just fine in your singleness, but then you met someone new and an intense wave of unmet longing came rushing over you. Or maybe you dated someone years ago, but for some reason you’ve been thinking about them a lot lately.
Can single men and single women really be just friends? Sure, it’s possible. It happens sometimes. But in the vast majority of cases, they either both like each other and are just waiting for the right time to become something more, or one of them has feelings but the other does not.
God is ultimately sovereign over Satan. So even if Satan does send someone into your life, we need not fear since God is with us.
