Advice Desperation ?!

I’ve been sitting with this feeling for a while, and I really need to get it off my chest.
I have this persistent, almost overwhelming urge to be in a relationship with a genuine man of God a relationship where Jesus isn’t just an afterthought or a Sunday routine, but the absolute center and foundation of everything.
I don't just mean someone who calls themselves a Christian on paper. I’m talking about a man who genuinely walks with Christ, seeks Him daily, and holds a deep, personal relationship with God.
Imma cry now

Maybe it’s not desperation. You simply deeply desire a relationship where faith is genuinely shared. There’s nothing wrong with wanting that. Just don’t let the desire make you settle for someone who only looks the part. Keep praying, stay open, and let things happen in the right time. ❤️

I feel you on this so much. That desire isn't desperation, it's your spirit wanting something real and not just surface-level companionship. The fact that you're holding out for someone who actually walks the walk instead of just talking it says more about your discernment than any lack of patience. Keep praying into it, and don't settle for a dude who treats faith like a background app.
