You found the right man / lady to be partner of your life yet both of you are not in the same belief hence one of you have to choose. Will you leave your partner or God?
If there's any unfair situation where you lost your love ones (family or spouse), will you hate God and leave Him?
If around your working place, the non-believer who just enjoy life always do better and get more bonus than you. And you, doing so well, always obey God's command yet seems there's no blessings come.

Or in any other situations, will you choose to trust in Him or leave Him?
This sentence has been ringing in my head since early of this year. And here's my top reasons why I don't want or couldn't leave God:
1. He's my Saviour
God has been worked so hard thru other people around me to save me! Why would I want to leave my savior? I'm grateful for who I am today and where I am today. It's really because of His grace.
Even when I'm lost, God never leave me and He always show His way.
2. His Eternal Love
God is love and He gave us eternal love. An unending love, unconditional love. How could I say it's unconditional? It's because He has died on the cross to paid off all our sins so God need not to judge us when we step into the next life (after death). His love is eternal compare with human's love. I didn't mean bad but at the end human are created by God, how could their love is bigger than God?
3. His Presence
Leave God and choose other god, I don't think I will have the same peace that I ever experience. I'm not saying other religion is bad, but being a Christian, it has been sticking in my life and I'm proud to be called a Christian.
When I was kid, my parents never asked / pushed me to choose between Christian or Buddhist. Fyi, mum is Christian and dad is Buddhist. I just went to both; temple and church taking turns and actually I prefer to be in church. His presence always be with me wherever I am, God never left me alone, He always with me. Not only Him, but Holy Spirit too.
To answer the question on the top.. Here's my decisions / answers:
If I have to be in first situation where God asked me to leave the guy that I have been dating, I will leave him. Yes, it will be very hard but I believe that God's decision is the best and He will provide and give me that even better guy in my life!
Second situation if I have to lose the love ones in my life (spouse / parents), I believe that it's the best way for God and me. God has His own reasons and the way He plans things are totally different than ours. Remember that God's plan is always higher than ours. If our plans are same like His, we will not need God anymore.
Third situation if seems that other people blessings are more than me, I believe that God's blessings are on its way. I really just to have surrender and fully trust in Him.
The key is to keep believe in Him, have faith and obey Him! Do not lose heart and believe that the best is yet to come!
God is never late, nor too early, He's always on time. Even though we thought it's kinda late, but His plans are bigger than ours. And He always think of us as a father would be really thoughtful to their children.
Jeremiah 29:11 (Amplified)
For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the Lord, thoughts and plans for welfare and peace and not for evil, to give you hope in your final outcome.
Yeremia 29:11 (TB) - Bahasa Indonesia
Sebab Aku ini mengetahui rancangan-rancangan apa yang ada pada-Ku mengenai kamu, demikianlah firman TUHAN, yaitu rancangan damai sejahtera dan bukan rancangan kecelakaan, untuk memberikan kepadamu hari depan yang penuh harapan.
