How Dating Apps Intervene with God's Plan

Meeting Organically vs Forced Dating

As we grow closer to God, we learn that everything means something and God is controlling all the factors around you within the universe. One of the things many of us humans tend to forget frequently is that the positive loving people that come into our lives are a result of God as well. 

All interactions with friendly and loving people are the results of the heavens above bringing people into your life to make a positive impact on you. This logic also applies to dating and finding love with our soulmates.

We will label this as "Meeting Organically." Meaning, instead of forcing an interaction with a significant other, we instead allow God to bring people into our lives naturally. This could be as simple as you being at a grocery store and having an beautiful encounter with someone that you feel a connection with. Maybe it could be at a gas station or possibly someone at your work place. Any and everywhere this happens from day to day. 

However, due to our heartache and frustrations with dating, we tend to shut out all people into our life and say we're done or revert to dating apps only. We walk out in public with our heads down and begging to not be interacted with. This way will only lead to sadness, loneliness, and a lack of ability to connect with all humans that we encounter. This ultimately can lead to depression and extreme sadness while feeling hopeless. 

On the opposite end of this, when we date only by using dating apps, we will label this as "Forced Dating." The reason we call this forced is because instead of meeting someone organically, we force the interaction with dating apps. 

This also means that you've given up the major advantages that come with meeting organically vs forced. When forced, you don't get the gauge a persons initial first impression energy. This is vital with determining whether you're compatible and if they have a loving heart from within. 

When forced, a person can tend to "fake" how they think you want them to be which can be extremely misleading if you're not paying attention. Also because you've already determined initially that you like this person from their profile, it also throws off your judgement of their energy and heart. You seek lust and attraction first instead of what's deep in their heart.

How many times have you thought you were hitting it off because of the profile and attraction, only to find that this person isn't for you and that somethings "off" but you cant quite tell what? You then keep trying and going through this same pattern over and over again until eventually you quit on dating all together or worst case, settle with someone that you're not meant to be with.

The Negative Impact Dating Apps Have On Us! 

When we use dating applications exclusively, we also can become unintentionally cruel within our hearts. Think about it on a deeper level. We tend to judge people from their profile pictures meaning we're only judging them from an attraction level, their height and weight, and what they bring to the table from a financial standpoint. This viewpoint can make us extremely dismissive and hurtful towards one another and can lead into our daily lives of how we treat everyone we come in contact with.

A person may not be your initial "type" but due to how much love and energy you two can have within, they can grow into the man or woman you desire them to be. True love has no boundaries and the truth of the matter is that you can fall in love with someone who is the exact opposite of what you thought you wanted. It's all about the connection you build one another and as you both grow with kindness and love, you'll see that there's no better person for you than the one you're with. God knows the exact person you're meant to be with and will bring them into your life. You just need to be in the correct mind and spiritual space to be ready for them. 

How Do I Find Love?

Trust in God's love from within, his process and you'll find love once again. It's truly that simple. Try not to force things on your end and let it happen naturally. Most importantly, remember who you are personally and remember to love yourself. Once you have the confidence from within, you'll be ready to open your heart for the right person once they come into your life. 

Approach every day like it's your last, love and laugh, and remember to give all glory and trust to God.

We love you ♥️
