Rehab, this article is refreshing. I'll tell you why. It's not confining one to 'accept' or conform to being single. The scripture that is so over used for singles (and it's sickening) is 'Being content with where you are...' Well that doesn't apply when you have a Godly desire for something.
Marriage is definitely Godly...God ordained. No where does the word of God say one has to 'accept' being single. It promotes marriage more than singleness. Case closed.
Prime example: I have a friend who kept sending 'group' emails on how to be content in the single life...etc. I was sick of it. I shared with her to re-focus and to prepare for what she wanted which was marriage. Our morning group emails between my 'girls' and I changed drastically. We focused on marriage instead of being single.
Ummmm, she's now happily married.
Another is engaged; another has a new boyfriend...and me...I'm in prayer about my friend. I'm not sure if he's the one. The Lord said for me to 'wait' and trust Him.
Soooo, "I'll keep you posted..."
(See, that's what happens when you pray...God says, Trust me....wait'...
) But I'm happy that God is in control of my life decisons and not me. I don't want to make anymore mistakes in my life. I want to marry the right man who gets to hold my hand....
