Falling in love is a beautiful thing that makes our hearts happy. But sometimes we fall in love with someone who causes us to feel sad. In situations like this, we begin to live a life of sadness instead of joy.
If we love someone and he takes us away from God, we are spiritually destroyed. We should stay away from such a person because if we lose eternal life only because of love, it would be our foolishness. The Bible gives us instructions on what kind of people we should marry.
If we read the Word of God, we will understand that God wants us to be involved in a loving relationship with someone who will encourage us to walk in God’s way. But if the opposite happens, we will do real harm in life.
In this regard, we should pray to God, and He will send the right person into our lives at the right time. This is why we should never be impatient. God knows when we need something in life, and He will provide it for us.
Therefore, we should not indulge in love with anyone for our flesh’s desires. If we go against God’s plan, there will be great damage to our lives, and we will be further away from God.
Let’s see the Bible scriptures below that talk about falling in love with the wrong person.
