SCF seeking SCM and accepting no substitutes

This weekend I had the opportunity to participate in a young adult event. The speaker and band were amazing and it was just what I needed. The weekend before was Resurrection and it was all about the youth. This weekend was for me. The seeds were planted the weekend of Resurrection. I needed to be thinking about what in my life was holy and what wasn't. This weekend it really hit me that I wasn't living life the way I should be. I was letting things come in between me and God. I am his and he has claimed me. But I haven't been living like that. I've been living of the world. Here I am trying to find someone to date. There's nothing wrong with that but I've become obsessed with it. I've been talking to this guy who I like. He's sweet and cute but he doesn't get it. He doesn't get that the most important thing in my life is my relationship with God. He thinks I'm too busy and don't have time for dating. I realized that even though this guy makes me feel good about myself, he isn't the right one for me to be dating. There is someone out there who gets it. Someone who has a relationship with God and will recognize it is the most important relationship we have. If I'm not focused on that relationship, no other relationship will be healthy. It isn't easy to break off those relationships that aren't healthy. I'm the queen of unhealthy relationships. But I know this feeling of being lost will only go away once I give myself to God again.
I have to trust that God will send me the right someone and that I don't have to settle for the wrong one or the convenient one. People do not change that much. I can't change anyone or make them have a relationship with God. I realized this weekend that there is a big difference between saying you believe in God and living it. There are lots of guys and girls out there who consider themselves Christian but don't have a real relationship with God. I'm a single Christian Girl seeking a Single Christian man who has a relationship with God. I can't accept any substitutes.
