• 1 + 1 = 1

• 1 + 1 = 1

• 1 (ME) + 1 (HE/SHE) = 1 (WE)

  • ME is trying to find someone that makes ME happy, by finding someone ME is ATTRACTED to.
  • You TRYOUT different people through the process of modern dating, to try to find the right FIT for the person ME IS RIGHT NOW.
  • I know ME…So I need to find the right HE/SHE…To form a happy WE

Matthew 7:1 “Judge not, that you be not judged. 2 For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you. 3 Why do you see the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? 4 Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when there is the log in your own eye? 5 You hypocrite, FIRST take the log out of your own eye, and THEN you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye.

1.) Am I the person, God has called me to be?

Matthew 16:24 Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. 25 For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. 26 For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what shall a man give in return for his soul?

• How has ME died:
  -Serving?
  -Finances?
  -Connecting relationally?
  -Submitting?
  -Purity?
• Does ME love well?

1 Corinthians 13:4 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant 5 or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; 6 it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. 7 Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
