I enjoy being a single

I've been praying for my soulmate for 20 years (since I was 12 years old). God hasn't answer it yet. I believe that God has set His own time to answer. I enjoy being single. After I received Jesus as my savior, I can overcome my lonelyness. Having Jesus is more than anything in this world. I try to be active in my church and I have many friends. It's difficult for me to share in English, I hope u can understand. Thanks. Gbu

Having Jesus is more than anything in this world

Amen
I too enjoy being single, I believe when God is ready to share us, its going to be worth the wait.
This may sound silly but I say a prayer for my future mate sometimes, for his daily walk.

I pray that God will bless you with your heart's desire .

I enjoyed being single... Paul remained single. I, however, married in 1993 and now have 2 lovely children. Does that mean marriage is for everyone? No, it does not. And there are times when life as a married man would have remained simpler had I remained single. Would I change the past? Probably not (at least not all of it) and Jesus has changed/is changing what needed changing. Your past is what brought you to where you are today.

Remember the phrase, "Please be patient, God is not finished with me yet"?

Although I enjoy being a single and I feel having Jesus is more than enough, it doesn't mean that I don't pray for my future mate at all. Every morning I pray for it coz I believe God will answer it at His time and in His way. God knows when I will be ready to get married.

Better to wait until death than be sorry and suffer a living death with the wrong one. We are entering into an age where Paul's injunction to be single if you aren't burning is especially significant. It is easier to make it through a period of persecution alone than have to worry about a spouse and children. Single people can have more time to serve as well. Single is not bad and neither is marriage but there is a season for everything.

Well everyone is different I guess. I found my soulmate when I was 16.That was 1976. We married in 1981,and Oct. 17th will be our 26th anniversary. We got 4 kids that all know Jesus as Saviour. God is good. There as has been peaks and valleys,but we have a wonderful marriage.
I think the one verse that has helped us the most is the second part of Eph.4:26 where it says "let not the sun go down upon your wrath". Sometimes we stay up all night working out a disagreement,but it's worth it. We get out the book "The Five Love Languages" by Gary Chapman and read it every 3 or 4 years too. It's a great book for young couples to read before they get married too. So, I'm enjoying being married.

I agreed all of you guys. Single is not as bad. I'm single for now. No matter what i am not alone. I thank god that i have jesus in my life my personal savior. Continue to walk with the lord serving him and share others to those who fnd it dfficult in their life. To tell you the truth. I don't worry to much of my singleness. Have no fear for he ever leaves us nor forsake thee. I committ it to god the author and finisher of faith. If his plans that makes him willing and happy and i'll be happy for that in the future. My desires and plans are in his hand. He knows what best for my future. His promises never fails. It will come through in his time and his way...

God bless u all..:lightning

God knows what is the best for everyone, so there's need to be worried.

As I mentioned in another thread, I met my soul mate last year in September and I am very grateful for our wonderful relationship. We trust in true love that is for the whole life, although we need patience and strength, since we are from different countries and also we can't get married and live together untill we finish university studies and have some jobs... So please guys pray for us at times if you remember.

Before meeting my love, I wasn't worrying about it at all and I was even considering staying single for whole life. However, now I feel at peace about how it is because this relationship has been given us by God, who knows our hearts and what is the best for them.

Although it it hard sometimes because of realizing there are yet a couple of years to wait, we can still build our relationship a little with every day and I can say I had never been so happy before in my life.

praying for your future spouse

Hi there,

I don't think that you are silly at all to pray for your future spouse. The Lord wants us to talk with Him about everything so that seems to naturally follow.

I prayed for my husband years before I ever met him. And I am blessed. No one is perfect, including me - yet we know that our spouse is God's good gift to us.

Keep praying. And growing in Jesus. He is key for all areas of my life. He is The One.

Being single is a whole lot better but you've got to deal with issues like emotional stress and the pressures of an adultrous life.
This guy has three adopted daughters and he lives happily in North Hill.
He said he saw no reason in the unity, but he suffers a lot fantacising over his ''lost wife and begotten kids''...kids of his blood.He cant help but feel like he betrayed 'her'...
The choice is yours not of God's.Its up to you...

I admire those who stay single and wait for God's time patiently.
I remember the time I decided to stay single and to wait for God's timing, i felt so much peace and love from my Heavenly Father.
But that's also was the time I faced the most trials. And i have to admit that I have failed to stand strong.
I missed those time when I was so in love with Jesus. And I'm still trying to find my way back to that stage :shade:

How do you fight it when emotions or hormones start reacting?

To fight our emotions or hormones when it start reacting, is to get down to our knees in prayer.

Ask God for wisdom as in James 1:5 says" But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all men, generously and without reproach, & it will be given to him."

ASk God to give us strength and control of our emotions & hormones for our body is a temple of the Holy Spirit &not our own. !
1 Cor. 6:19-20.

6:19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? 6:20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.

It is through God's Grace that we can do it.
