It's never easy dealing with a breakup, so "Fetish" singer Selena Gomez is drawing strength from God as she deals with her reported separation from on-again, off-again boyfriend, Justin Bieber.

She was recently spotted by TMZ carrying the book, "The Everyday Life Bible: The Power of God's Word for Everyday Living" while walking into Nobu last Thursday afternoon in Malibu.

The book, which is written by Joyce Meyer, seeks to help Christians gain a deeper understanding of the Bible. In it, Meyer shared her thoughts on each book from the Bible and she broke down how biblical truths can have an impact on one's day-to-day life.

Maybe Gomez is searching for answers about love and relationships, and looking to God to help her as she navigates through this difficult period in her life.

A source earlier told E! News that the lovebirds have decided to spend some time apart for now. "They were having a lot of little disagreements recently and one fight in particular blew up and caused them to decide to 'break up,' however, they've been in contact the entire time and their feelings for each other have not changed," the insider claimed.

Fans need not worry because Bieber and Gomez are really working hard to make their relationship work this time around. "They will absolutely get back together and they are not over, but they both need some time away from each other," the source continued.

A different source added that the two have been "having issues" about their newfound romance, especially as the public is heavily invested in it. "They both have expressed that they have been feeling overwhelmed with a lot of pressure that has come with their public relationship, and haven't been seeing eye to eye on things," said the insider.
