I want my boyfriend to convert to Christianity
(Sorry for my bad English, it’s not my first language)
So I’m in a relationship with my boyfriend for 1 year but i know him for 3 years already. I already talked about religion to him because I hardly see myself marrying a man who doesn’t have the same beliefs as me. He believes that there is a God but I fell like he is not really convinced about what I tell him about Christianity.
My mom tells me sometimes that she doesn’t want me to marry a nonbeliever and I totally understand her pov but at the same time I love my boyfriend. So I’m kinda lost on what to do.
I sometimes pray about our relationship, believing that God will make things right as he planned and I’m aware about the fact that maybe the plan of God for me is to break up with my boyfriend at some point. I’m still really lost because I prayed multiple times to God to stop the relationship if it’s not meant to last but each time nothing happens so it makes me believe that maybe we’re meant to be together…?
We’re both still young and pre-adults but we see marrying each other and have plans for the future. I’m just kind of split between the idea of hoping something and hoping nothing.
And I’ve talked about religion to him, even gave him a Bible as a present but I think that he never opened it and it kinda makes me sad because I want to save him too. And to clarify things, I don’t want him to convert just because of me but I want him to convert for himself and by his own love for Christ. For me, it doesn’t make sense to force my boyfriend to convert just for our relationship to last because it’s not a real conversion, it’s just interests.
So I’m kinda lost on what to do and I’m praying to God for Him to change his hearth but I’m kinda losing hope :( I feel like he’s never gonna convert… so idk what to think about our future…
What are your advices ? Or maybe thoughts?
