Don’t slow your role, because you know have someone. Instead keep going, doing more for God. But as necessary with all things have a balance. Don’t spend all your time with your partner that you don’t have time for God, but also don’t stay in church all day that you end up not spending time getting to know your partner better. Find time for everything. There are 24 hours in a day, enough time for it all. No matter how busy you are, you just need to balance it out. In the Bible a wise King called King Solomon once wrote about this subject; read (Ecclesiastes 3: 1-8). By doing all of these things your partner will see in you a strong character, one that represents the Almighty God you serve. This will only put more of an assurance in his/her heart that you are of God.
When His light shines in you, it is impossible to be covered. “You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lamp stand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your father in heaven.” Matthew 5: 14 – 16 (NKJ). By seeing your goodness or good deeds, your partner will praise God for having you. But in everything you do, do all things for God and not for men. “Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not men,” Ephesians 6:7 (NIV).
Do these things yes because they are necessary, but not to show off to men what you are doing and supposedly how great of a person you are. Not to show your pastor, your friend, your current girlfriend or boyfriend not to show to anyone, for credit. The credit of anyone in this world is not worthed, compared to the rewards of God. Doing that for physical praise is pride, and pride is not of God, so be careful. Do it with a sincere heart of a humble and true servant who wants to glorify God in Spirit and in Truth.
