Christian Post Report – Adrienne Bailon, one of the members of the pop music group “The Cheetah Girls”, poses as she arrives for the world premiere of the animated film “Wall-E”in Los Angeles, California, June 21, 2008.
Last year, Adrienne Bailon and her longtime boyfriend Lenny Santiago split up. Now the singer, actress and co-host of “The Real” talk show is focusing on the love of Jesus.
The 32-year-old took to her Twitter Saturday to let her more than 600,000 followers know “real love brings the Jesus out of us.”
Earlier this month, the entertainer tweeted “Psalm 139” to fans.
Bailon has used the social media platform to share her faith and her journey after breaking up with Santiago, her then music executive boyfriend of six years.
“Life lessons are hard but I’m grateful that I have a platform to share my journey and hopefully encourage, inspire, or just let women know they are not alone and to never give up on finding love. I still believe,” Bailon told Us Weekly last year after splitting with her fiance.
Although she’s staying positive, Bailon admitted that breaking up with someone you’re emotionally attached to isn’t easy.
“I am, of course, sad that things didn’t go as we planned, but we still remain close friends,” she said. “Six years is a long time to be together, but we had to make the decision to go with our hearts and not be embarrassed or afraid of change. He absolutely helped make me a better person and I will forever cherish the time we shared together.”
In 2014, Bailon spoke to The Christian Post about seeking God to overcome emotional trials, such as a breakup.
“It’s so funny because in that moment you think you’re going to die, you’re like ‘Oh my God, how am I going to live without this person.’ In those moments, cling to God and build your relationship with God,” Bailon told CP. “I love the saying, I believe it’s from Maya Angelou, but it’s a woman’s heart should be so focused on God that a man has to seek Him to find her. It’s funny because people in the world even say ‘Girl, when you’re not looking that’s when the right one comes along.'”
While Bailon stressed the importance of forgiving people and letting go of bitterness, she also insisted that people will recognize what a good relationship should look like when they are at peace.
“God gives you peace in a situation that’s meant for you. I feel like the moment that you don’t feel peace, you’re not where you should be,” Bailon said. “Being in a relationship that doesn’t give you peace, that makes you not want to sleep at night, that makes you want to go through their phone and all of those things … that’s not God’s perfect plan for your life.”
