Searching for a partner who is a Christian can be a bit like searching for a needle in a haystack. The main questions are where to go, whom to look for and should you even be searching for someone to begin with? These questions seem like very reasonable ones. Since we say that God knows everything and He sees all, certainly He will bring someone into our lives who is right for us at the right moment.
So then why use a Christian dating agency? Well, think of a scenario in which you sat at home all day long for your whole life, not going out to parties or church events anymore. That would result in you meeting with no one of the opposite gender with whom you might develop a friendship and perhaps even marry someday. Extreme as it may sound, this would be the logical result of not mixing with general public and engaging in social activities, making new associates and getting involved with a church.
In our opinion, getting involved with a church IS an excellent way to meet other Christian singles. But what happens if you are always on the move and need some help? Well, there is a possibility that your friends may invite you to parties or for evenings out with their friends who are single just to help you out a little. So I ask, what’s the distinction in getting help from the church or a friend to meet up with new people? It doesn’t really have to include dating, and getting a little help from a devoted Christian nun or Christian- owned dating and companionship service that dedicates itself to finding new Christian acquaintances is fine.
There is absolutely no dissimilarity. Yes, there is the shame of belonging to a Christian dating agency but let’s just forget about that. Just try. God likes people that DO, not people that DO NOT. It’s the old axiom about being easier to direct a ship that’s moving than one that stands still.
There is, however, one very significant thing: You should not consider a Christian dating agency as a shortcut to God’s plan for you. Use this service to interact with other people, make new acquaintances and practice making good relations. Don’t use it as a way to go on a lot of dates and see if one of them fits! Stay open to everything and feel the quiet word of God and see the magic of God. See where He is leading you, where He’s taking you , either to one person or to other good Christian associates. I believe that God would like you to have good Christian friends first more than anything else.
