Where is human responsibility? What is the place of human responsibility in dating?Following on from my previous post, I have been wondering about the place of human responsibility.
My premise for contentment, and specifically contentment in singleness, is found in God’s sovereignty and God’s goodness.
But simply because God is in control, it doesn’t absolve human responsibility.
Imagine if we were to take the attitude of ‘Well, if God wants it to happen, then it will happen’ with evangelism. If this attitude is taken, then it is easy to sit back and not take part. So what does this mean for the dating scene?
I speak about contentment in singleness, marriage, financial matters, every area of your life. When people allow their desires to consume them, they not only become discontent, but they make those things their idols.
I am wrestling at the moment with the place of human responsibility in the dating scene. I am also wrestling with the place of discontentment in the life of the believer. What does it mean to be discontent? Is it ok to be discontent with sin in your life? What about being discontent with being in poverty?
But what does all this look like?
