Can You Truly Love But Be Without Peace?

What does it mean to be in love but not at peace in your heart about the relationship?


ANSWER:
Hi dear, being in love with someone - really loving someone carries peace with the feeling. So if you're not at peace in your heart about the relationship, then that love comes with a question mark because TRUE love comes with peace.

Infidelity, distrust, doubts can also deny you peace in your heart in a relationship but you're in the best position to answer that. What do you see in that other person or what does she do that troubles your heart and bothers you?

You may try to convince yourself that you really love him/her but something is wrong somewhere and that's why you don't have peace in your heart. It could be that you're in love with the wrong person or you guys are engaging in sexual relations and your conscience is bothered about that.

A good question to ask yourself is this; if you truly love this person, then why are you not at peace with your heart and self? There’s also a possibility of being in lust and not in love with that person. Maybe it’s her beauty, manner of speech, shape etc. that captivates you and this would not give you peace.

You also have to be honest with yourself about the relationship. Do you have plans to marry this person or are you in the relationship just to catch fun and pass time till someone better comes along? All these are bound to bother your conscience and deny you peace.

Finally, table the matter and commit everything to God in prayers because when some issues gets beyond and above us, only Him can bring the hidden things to light and grant peace to our hearts.

Remain richly blessed..
