					<description><![CDATA[This is almost exactly what happened to me. After 12 years of being with my first ever bf I felt God tell me to break it off. I had been trying to force the relationship convinced he had to be the one. He would tell me we were gonna get married and we even started planning for one and I purchased a dress. But he kept dragging his feet and treating me badly. This back and forth went on for years with him. I was mentally and emotionally spent. I felt like I was loosing my mind! I would cry out to the Lord to please make a way and work it all out but time after time every door slammed in my face. Finally during a time of prayer and fasting I had dreams I broke up with him and when I woke up I felt the Lord compel me to do it. Anyone who knows me knew this was unthinkable as I am stubborn and didn&#039;t want to admit defeat after 12 long hard years. But when the Lord wants something to end it ends.. just like that. I realize now almost a year and a half later that it was a blessing in disguise. As hard as it was to walk away from the only man I&#039;ve ever had in my life it was for the best. He wasn&#039;t a believer and I was unable to grow in my walk with the Lord when he was in my life. I have changed and grown so much since then and I literally feel the Lord at work in my life. No I haven&#039;t found the right man yet but I feel like he is right around the corner. So if you keep trying to force something whatever it may be and it keeps not working out then maybe try to realize and make peace that it&#039;s not what&#039;s best for you and God is protecting you. Just trust Him and surrender it all. He cares for us and only wants what&#039;s best!]]></description>
