It sounds to me that your not happy with the relationship or the things that it's led you too. I suggest you break it off and go back to your family it sounds like they love and miss you but it's your decision and if you want a better opinion pray to God for guidance on what to do.

I have been in two relationships with men who were not Christians. It takes its toll on you. I know that right now you are scared and dont want to do what you know you have to do. But continuing to walk on a path that you know is outside the will of God for your life (you know this based simply on the fact that the two of you are unequally yoked)will only cause you to walk in to devastation and destruction. Ending the relationship will be the hardest thing you will ever do, but trust me when I tell you that I found myself there twice and God is so faithful, even when we are faithless. I am getting back to where I am supposed to be, walking in the light of His mercy and grace and you can return to His grace too. "If you want to walk on water, you have to get out of the boat." You can add me on facebook (Stephanie Faith) if you want to chat some more. In the mean time, I was reminded of this scripture when I read your question:

Isaiah 1:16-20:

“Wash yourselves, make yourselves clean;
Put away the evil of your doings from before My eyes.
Cease to do evil,
17 Learn to do good;
Seek justice,
Rebuke the oppressor;[a]
Defend the fatherless,
Plead for the widow.
18 “Come now, and let us reason together,”
Says the Lord,
“Though your sins are like scarlet,
They shall be as white as snow;
Though they are red like crimson,
They shall be as wool.
19 If you are willing and obedient,
You shall eat the good of the land;
20 But if you refuse and rebel,
You shall be devoured by the sword”;
For the mouth of the Lord has spoken."


God Bless. I am here for you and I know what you are dealing with right now. Praying that you would have courage, boldness and discernment.

I definitely agree with Stephanie. I just want to add one more thing that my sister and I were discussing the other night. It's true that if you want to walk on the water you have to get out of the boat. BUT don't just wait until the water is calm. Jesus is calling you now, even though the water may be rough. Trust Him and go. He will be there for you.

^^ Agreed with them. I'll be praying that you have the strength and courage. God loves you, and He will never leave you. Come home to Him--He died for you <3

Sounds like things are going to get worse if you stay with him.
