I feel like I have found my match made in heaven.

When I look at her smiling face I just feel like “this person makes sense to me” and everything seems to just click. 

The more I get to know her the more beautiful she gets. 

But my mother thinks I am a victim of a love scam. 

Since talking to her last night I have felt stressed out and torn in two directions.

On the one hand I have my mother who raised me and lets me live under her roof. 

On the other hand I feel like Angel is my bright future. 

I don’t want to alienate my mother.

But if I let her get in my head and give up on Angel because of it, then I am sure I will regret it forever.  

Furthermore, I am worried that if I tell Angel my mother thinks our relationship is a scam, she will get discouraged and give up on me. 

Last night Mum sowed seeds of doubt in my mind… maybe it is too good to be true?

People in Australian society are frustrated trying to maximise dating outcomes, or they’ve given up entirely. 

That was me too, until I found God.  

When I speak to God or close my eyes to meditate, it seems clear that his hand is in all this. 

When I trust my true beliefs, it makes me believe that what Angel and I have is genuine affection, fireworks chemistry, practical compatibility and honest intentions. 

There are some challenges, such as being far away in different time zones, but to be honest, I feel like that is only a minor problem to have in the grand scheme of things.

Actually, I feel motivated by having a clear goal and an interesting problem to solve.

Through Angel, I feel God’s grace shining on my life more each passing day, and it’s made me rediscover joy.
