Pitfall #1 is the tendancy to jump right to relationship dating. It is often awkward and uncomfortable. There is a better way: Friendship Dating.
Pitfall #2 is when you do not understand not take full advantage of relationship dating. We are looking for a match; which is the absence of deal-breakers.
Pitfall #3 is when we let our hearts jump to marriage before we know if we are a match.
Pitfall #4 is when you are dating at one level (ie. on a date with a 1), but your focus and purpose is at another level (ie. you're looking for a match).
Pitfall #4 is when you are dating at one level (ie. on a date with a 1), but your focus and purpose is at another level (ie. you're looking for a match). In this class, we look at appropriate dating at levels 4, 5, and 6.
Pitfall #5 is not knowing the difference between 'Being in Love' (the thrill) and love (the choice, the committment).
Pitfall #6 is not considering that perhaps your best partner is someone who sees what you do not.
Pitfall #7 is not jumping in when you should (preference on the deal-breaker list) and pitfall #8 is not jumping out when you should (deal-breaker on the preference list).
Pitfall #9; Part A is not allowing others to repent or change; expecting them to be perfect. That is hypocritical since none of us will offer our spouse a perfect partner. We must grant each other and ourselves a probationary state.
Pitfall #9; Part B is staying in a relationship with deal-breakers and hoping change will occure and not recognizing that change is not occuring and will likely result in a broken relationship. In this class we talk about how to recognize then change is and is not occuring.
Pitfall #10. Like the one who only received one talent, our human nature often causes us to be so afraid of failure that we do not try. This, the Lord rebuked in the parable. He wants a people that would rather fail than not try.
Heavenly Father's greatest priority is helping create eternal families.
Heavenly Father will help you find an eternal companion, but we must understand some of the rules of revelation the apply to dating.
We live in a day very similar to the Prophet Joseph Smith, in which there is a "war or words" and a "tumult of opinion." The solution is still the same: Hear Him! and not the crowd.
1When we understand the many ways God speaks to our heart, we invite more revelation and our confidence grows.
When we understand the many ways God speaks to our mind, we invite more revelation and our confidence grows.
The journey of the Jaredites to America reveals several key rules of revelation.
Perhaps the best way to Hear Him is to pray better and more frequently.
We all have a spiritual navel; a connection to the divine. How we treat our body has a tremendous effect on the flow of nutrients through out navel.
The Lord will pour out blessings in our lives if we forgive others.
