But if the unbeliever leaves, let him do so. A believing man or woman is not bound in such circumstances; God has called us to live in peace. How do you know, wife, whether you will save your husband? Or how do you know, husband, whether you will save your wife? (1 Corinthians 7:15-17)
You can only do so much.
Remember that, Beloved. You do not bear the responsibility for anyone else’s relationship with God.
You are not that strong.
You are not supposed to be.
Live your life before God with faith and fidelity, and you will influence many.
But not all.
When you learn to be OK with that, you will know peace.
Until you do, you will make yourself nutso.
Granted, you’re funny to watch when you’re nutso, but peace is still preferable, ya?
Happy Thursday, Beloved.
