I have a girlfriend. Well I had a girlfriend I should say. Shes a widow with 3 children and she needed some time away to concentrate on her children and her relationship with God so we agreed to take a 4 month break. I prayer for her everyday and God always told me the same thing...just wait. So I did just that I waited. I talked with her today and she's been seeing another, another widow that she can relate too. She has no interest in dating me again. Why did God want me to wait? Why? Why would God want me to wait if it's over??? Please pray for my broken heart. And that God would show me what he wants me to do. Thanks

Precious one - it is possible for us to do everything right in a relationship - and still lose it. I know this all too well.
God will ask us to wait **on HIM** ...and this is where you still are. You need to wait on HIM - not another human.
He is there for you this very moment to heal you broken heart, dear one. He needs you to trust Him and to center your wounded heart on His love and His path for you.
I know this is a bitter, lonely time for you. I know that it seems like the pain will take your life, as it has taken so much of your peace... but hang on. God is near you now, and is holding you very close.
Psalm 22:24 For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto Him, He heard.
Isaiah 54:10 The mountains and hills may crumble, but My love for you will never end; I will keep forever My promise of peace." So says the LORD who loves you.
Philippians 4:7 And God's peace, which is far beyond human understanding, will keep your hearts and minds safe in union with Christ Jesus.
Father God - I mourn with dear one's pain. I understand the pain far too well. Please lift him up and bring him joy through this pain. Open his eyes to Your love and Your timing, Father God. Please - God of all comfort - put your arms around him and give him relief from this sorrow. In Jesus' name. Amen.
Peace.

We don't always get what we want in life. We aren't to ask for our wants and needs, but ask God for what He wants for us. It's all about placing God's needs above our own. Instead of us questioning God as to why this happened or that happend, we are to trust in Him that He has something very special and far greater in store for us, to be given to us according to His will and time and not ours.
Proverbs 3:5 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
James 4:14-15 Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.
15 For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.
What we will do is ask the Lord to heal your heart and restore it with His peace and comfort. We are going to trust in Him that His plans for you are on going, and that He will bring you the happiness according to His will and time and with whom. God wants all of His children to be happy in life. But true happiness must first come from placing God above all others first always, and then our cups shall runeth over.
Luke 6:38 Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.
God bless you always!

Will do.
God gives us the desires of our heart. Thing is, He knows what they are before we do. So He is just preparing to give you the yet unrecognized desire of your heart.
God has reasons for the answers He gives. I pray that in time you will praise God for ending this relationship and brining you something even better in the future!

Sorry to hear that.
This is rough perhaps, but I feel maybe God told you to wait because he was working something out in her life and she had to make that choice. I know that may seem unfair to you but listen.............If he told you to wait and you did and obeyed. You will be rewarded. Its His promise. Hang in there because believe me , It is better to be with someone God places you with than someone He didnt.

Father God in heaven, help heal this man's broken heart. Give him your wisdom and guidance in discerning your will.
Your ways are above our ways, heavenly Father, and we pray that your will be done in this man's life.
In Jesus Name, Amen

I'm sorry your relationship broke up but.... dude, you need to move on! Make your own path in life, don't wait for a God who may or may not exist to do it for you. You are an intelligent human being, act like one!

God wants you to live for him. She doesn't have to date you. God wants us to be with other believers, not just the one.
