Bible verses about god sending you the right person

If faith is an important part of your daily life, it stands to reason that faith is an important part of any romantic relationships you'll have, too. Whether you're single, dating, or married, God has a plan for you and your future partner. Being able to lean on Christ throughout your relationship in times of stress, disagreement, or distance can be an important source of strength, no matter how long you've been with your partner. Reflecting on Bible verses about relationships can be as beneficial as studying Bible verses about grief during times of loss or Bible verses about anxiety during times of stress.

Knowing where to find these verses about love and relationships (and not having to search for them) can give you an easy, go-to resource for strength and comfort even in the hardest times of your relationship. Remember: No relationship, not even a Godly one, is perfect. Being able to put all your trust, hope, and faith in Christ throughout your relationship may help you have a clearer vision of your future with your partner and as an individual. Here are 25 verses about relationships to comfort you throughout your Christ-centered relationship or marriage.

"An excellent wife who can find? She is far more precious than jewels. The heart of her husband trusts in her, and he will have no lack of gain."

"I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace."

"A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother."

"A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another."

The Good News: We must always remember to love each other just as much as God loves us, which is unconditionally.

"Better is the end of a thing than its beginning, and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit. Be not quick in your spirit to become angry, for anger lodges in the bosom of fools."

"Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken."

The Good News: Two are better than one.

"For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love."
