You want to get married. Celibacy… is not for you! So should you seek, like Matthew 7:7 says, or should you wait for the Lord like Psalm 130:5 says?
Seek (everywhere!) and you shall find
If your faith is really important to you, you need to marry someone that not only claims the title of “Christian”, but really demonstrates their commitment to Christ. Where could you find such a person? Surprisingly, they may be outside of your local church!
Married to give
Many single Christians say “I can’t wait to receive the husband (or wife) God has for me”. Others will encourage singles by saying: “He (she) is coming, God is preparing you a good one.” These are nice words, that look very spiritual, but aren’t they completely selfish?
Opportunities to serve; Opportunities to be blessed
This week, I want to honor my best friend, whom I affectionately nicknamed “Cupcake”. She just got engaged and learned a great lesson in the process of finding her sweetheart, one that many singles should follow.
When will God give me my soulmate?
For a lot of singles, the wait for their beloved turns into frustration against God. We don’t want to admit it, because we are afraid of making Him angry, or because we are afraid to ruin our near perfect journey. But why hasn’t God done it?
