Day 2: The Right Timing for Love

Five-day devotional based on the message by Pastor Jeff Maness on February 23, 2025. Watch/listen to the full message by clicking here.
Devotional
In today’s world, people are often pressured to rush into relationships. But God calls us to wait for the right timing. We should not awaken love prematurely, as dating without readiness leads to heartache and confusion. God’s plan is always better than rushing into something out of fear or loneliness.

Bible Verse
"Promise me, O women of Jerusalem, not to awaken love until the time is right." — Song of Solomon 8:4 (NLT)

Reflection Question
Am I trusting God’s timing in my relationships, or am I trying to force something before I’m ready?

Quote
"If you don’t have the emotional and spiritual capacity to cope with a breakup, disappointment, or rejection in a healthy way, you have no business dating right now." — Lauren Windle

Prayer
Father, help me trust in Your perfect timing. Give me patience and wisdom to wait for love when the time is right. Keep my heart focused on You. Amen.
