relationships. Their partners lack clarity and openness, with little to no

honesty or transparency.

The unsaid doesn’t go unnoticed, so if you don’t speak on what’s ailing

you, it will make some men feel uneasy.

Holding back creates insecurity.

Cause a Man to Walk Away

Do not think, for one second, that just because this man is of God that

he’ll stick around, tough it out, and jump through hoops and hurdles just to

get through your emotional blockade—it’s just not true.

I’ve sat down with a lot of people individually, and with potential couples

who I knew were for each other, as well as had a deep and genuine

connection. However, because of their past, outside circumstances, and not

connecting with what God wanted them to do, the relationship did not

I get it.

It’s scary and your feelings are valid. I’m not judging you for being afraid

and I don’t want you to beat yourself up over it either, especially if you’ve

done this before or are experiencing it currently.

However, what I need you to understand is this is not OK and it goes

against what God wants you to do. The only reason to run is because God told

you it’s time to go.

When you attempt to move forward, while holding back in fear, you miss

the opportunity to see the full potential of the relationship. You have to move
