\u201cEvery good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.\u201d (James 1:17)<\/p>\n
Some Christian singles will stay single for the rest of their lives, but there are also many singles who will marry. If God wants you to be married, rest in the assurance that it will happen. It is also important to pray scary prayers, such as \u201cLord, do You genuinely want me to be married? If not, please make it clear to me.\u201d<\/p>\n
Praying these types of prayers can be challenging, but they will give you the answers you need. If you do get to the stage of dating someone, make sure you are praying over the relationship. Ask the Lord to help you know if this is the right person for you. God will remove them from your life if they are not the person He wants for you.<\/p>\n
Trust God\u2019s judgment over your own. You might be surprised at the workings of God in your life. Give God time, pray to Him, and keep bringing your requests to Him. Whether you stay single or get married, they are gifts. Every good gift comes from God. Give Him praise for your singleness!<\/p>\n
Dear God, my singleness is a gift. It is not a curse. For too long, I have seen singleness as something to be avoided at all costs, but I’m embracing it today. Whether I get married or stay single, I am blessed. You have blessed me beyond measure in Your love, God. I have You, which means I have everything that I need. Amen.<\/em><\/p>\n Photo credit: \u00a9Unsplash\/ Priscilla Du Preez<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u201cEvery good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.\u201d (James 1:17) Some Christian singles will stay single for the rest of their lives, but there are also many singles who will marry.
