What are God's standards on Christian brothers and sisters praying for each other? I have been spending too much time with A Christian Brother and at first I felt the fear of God over it, but it was such a mix of 1) I was becoming inappropriatly emotionally attached to a brother in Christ 2) very sutle sin of lust in me towards my bro, in that I was folling my flesh and I like to hang out with my bro alone in my car to all hours of the night.... 3) fellowship and freedom. So we kept hanging out for fellowship and freedom, and really it was awsome, and we felt we were under Grace. But I didn't obey the Lord I think, and I got my heart off God and onto someone else it shouldn't have been towards. I think too much of him. Well, sometimes. Anyway. Besides this, what do you think I should do about it?

Actually, I hear God saying, "Purity," at the moment.

Are you intrested in him romaticly? I dont see anything wrong that. you are both single, but stay accountable toa friend or something. However; I would not continue doing that if he was not pursuing me. I would stay guarded. And play hard to get.

I'm not interested in him romanically... I'm in love with Jesus. But if it turned out he was the one I wouldn't be against that... but I love Jesus. I like to think that Jesus is my Husband. Also my friend made it clear to me that he is not interested in me like that at all, he just wants to see me healed, and is encouraged because he sees me being healed

Jess..It's pretty simple.. ask Jesus what you should do! He'll make it very clear to you.

You shouldn't be alone in the car with him. Maybe in a group sitting. There is nothing wrong with falling in love with someone but keep it pure.

K, thanks. I did good tonite. I drove him home, but when we got to his house I got out of the car right away. I have a habit of pouting inwardly (in lonliness) so we talk and pray some more before he goes home. Which is not right. And I'm repenting of that.

Hey Lisa I just wanted to respond to what you said, "play hard to get." I really don't understand that and plus I don't think we should play games with people. In fact, God will lead us to the right one and we won't have to play games! lol

I am not spending time with him anymore. I sat a couch away from him at the Spring Retreat (bible camp) and he scared me, like a snake or something. And last young adults, Artur Pawlowski spoke, and afterwards an elder asked to pray for anyone who had been called to be a prophet. Well David went up, and when we were praying over him, the elder rebuked the "Jessica spirit," (like Jezebel) and IM Jessica! And there were two different congregations there that night that I am a part of. (The Street Church, and the Young Adult Center Street Church community). I didn't know how to feel that ashamed, so I am like, God have mercy have on me.
