The Single Fear

I have a confession...a few years ago as I was approaching the age of 26 I was very anxious about finding a husband. I couldnt believe that I was still single and couldnt understand it either my personal deadline for marriage was approaching fast! The thought in my mind was I'm a nice girl, kind of cute lol and a woman after God's own heart so why am I still single, I wondered. Well the revelation didnt come until after I  turned 26; I was having devotion time and being honest with God about feeling lonely and asked him to take it away. Well over the next two weeks he did it!!! I honestly didnt feel lonely anymore! God spoke to my heart and told me to continue to put him first and once I really devoted my time to putting him first, the lonliness went away. Although I still would love a husband/companion the reasons have changed. I'm not as selfish anymore, I'm not looking for someone to complete me and truthfully I'm just not looking. I know that when the time is right God will send the person he made especially for me and he will do the same for you. No matter what it is you want to happen in your life, be encouraged that God's timing is perfect.YOU DO NOT NEED TO SETTLE for anyone or anything. In the mean time feel those spaces with his word and heart to heart talks with him. What have you been anxious about? Read Phillipians 4:6
