Available But Not Needed

There is a difference between availability and necessity. Real wisdom is in you knowing the differences. Your necessity in life is fully dependent on who you are in Christ and what God has called you to do. LOVE AND RELATIONSHIP is not an exemption of this.

The fact that a man asked you out does not mean you need him, and the fact that you like a lady does not mean you need her. The fact that she is still single does not mean you need her. The fact that he is still single does not mean you need Him. The fact that this person is Godly, tongue speaking, demon chasing, and Spirit filled does not mean you need this person. We all do go to super market and shopping moll. Is it every thing in the super market you buy? Is it every thing you like in that super market you buy? So is it in life, love, and relationship. Necessity is key!

“Necessity is the mother of needs”

The first wisdom in relationship is your ability to know, recognize, and identify what you need. Your needs can only be identified through who you are in Christ, and what God has called you to do. Using Joseph the son of Jacob as the case study; When He was taken into slavery, His master’s wife was available but not needed by him. It was enticing, the woman pressurized him daily and it appeared like a big time opportunity. Joseph said some thing profound “I can not sin against God and my master.” His first concern was God. Your Need is not all about you; it is all about God’s Purpose and Grace (2 Timothy 1:8-9).

God’s word and what God has called you to do is what will determine what you really need. Needs are defined by necessity. Necessities are defined what God has called you to do. What has God called you to do? Have you discovered it? 

“An individual who does not know what God has called him or her to do
will be a liability in Relationship.”

Beauty is not enough. Handsomeness is not enough. Money is not enough. Love is not enough. What Has God called you to do? In that same light, DO YOU REALLY NEED THIS PERSON?

Can this person add value to what God has called you to do?
Can you add value to what God has called this person to do?

It’s okay that you need this person but, DOES THIS PERSON REALLY NEED YOU? Are you sure you are not accepting him or her base on pressure or pity? 

Its okay to see that there is a possibility of this guy proposing to you. It’s okay to see the possibility of this lady accepting your proposal. The big question is; it’s available, but DO YOU NEED THIS PERSON? Yes! It’s available but DOES THIS PERSON NEEDS YOU.

Be honest with your self, do you even know what you need?
Can you take your stand like Joseph and say ‘NO,’ to what’s available to you but not a need to you?

For Help study John 15:5 and Matthew 11:28-29.

Watch out for my next post “Available But Not Free.”

Thanks 

Yours sincerely

How to Stop Settling for Less in Dating Relationship - Part 4

Settling for less in a dating relationship is something that many Christian youths may find themselves doing, often without even realizing it. It's important to recognize the different ways people might settle, so you can avoid falling into these traps and ensure that your relationships are grounded in the love and purpose God has for you. Here’s a detailed look at 30 kinds of people who often settle for less in dating relationships, along with explanations of why they might do so. The Fearful: These individuals settle because they’re afraid of being alone. They might cling to a relationship that isn’t fulfilling or godly just to avoid the fear of loneliness. Their fear keeps them from stepping out in faith and trusting that God has someone better for them. The Impatient: Patience is a virtue, but those who struggle with it often settle for less. They want a relationship now and aren’t willing to wait for God’s timing. In their rush, they may overlook important red flags or settle ...

The True Essence of Love: Protection and Respect

Hello, lovers! Love is a beautiful and powerful force that binds two people together, creating a deep connection rooted in trust, vulnerability, and mutual respect. However, love comes with responsibilities. One of the most crucial aspects of a healthy, loving relationship is protection. Love culture demands protection—emotional, intellectual, and physical. If you cannot protect the person you love and instead abuse the access you have to their vulnerability, it’s time for a serious self-reflection. Protecting Vulnerability When someone loves you, they open up their heart, sharing their deepest fears, dreams, and insecurities. This level of vulnerability is a precious gift that must be cherished and safeguarded. If you exploit this vulnerability, manipulate their emotions, or demean their intellect, you are not only damaging the relationship but also becoming a toxic presence in their life. Recognizing this behavior is the first step toward change. Repentance and transformation are ess...

How to Stop Settling for Less in Dating Relationship - Part 6 (Final Part)

In the world of relationships, it’s easy to focus on whether we’re settling for less, but what about the other side of the coin? As Christian youths, we must also consider whether we’re unintentionally causing someone else to settle for less by dating us. Relationships are meant to be mutual, uplifting, and Christ-centered. If we’re not careful, our actions, words, or even our approach to dating could cause someone else to compromise their values or settle for something less than God’s best. Here’s how you can avoid putting someone in that position. First, it’s important to be honest with yourself about your intentions. Before you enter into a relationship, ask yourself why you want to date this person. Are you genuinely interested in them, or are you just trying to fill a void, combat loneliness, or conform to societal pressure? If your motivations aren’t pure, you might end up leading someone on, making them believe the relationship has more potential than it actually does. Pray for ...
