I'm sorry but let me repeat that...it is perfectly, without a doubt, entirely
OK TO BE SINGLE!
Because you...
1. Don't have a boyfriend right now
2. Aren't engaged or married right now
3. Aren't having kids right now
Does NOT mean there is something wrong with you!
Because you have HIGH standards...
Does NOT mean there is something wrong with you!
Because you ARE SINGLE...
1. You get to fall in love with a PERFECT MAN
2. You get to be pursued by a PERFECT MAN
3. You get to find joy in a personal relationship with a PERFECT MAN
LIES that the world/man/Satan tells us ladies:
1. You are NOT good enough
2. You are NOT pretty enough
3. You are NOT worthy enough
TRUTHS that the PERFECT MAN tells us ladies:
1. You ARE PRECIOUS
"You are precious and honored in My sight and I love you." ~ Isaiah 43:4
2. You ARE BEAUTIFUL
"I praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Your works are wonderful, I know that full well." ~ Psalm 139:14
3. You ARE WORTHY
"Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes. Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight." ~ 1 Peter 3:3-4
Ladies, being single isn't about picking out your flaws and wondering what is wrong with you. Being single is about falling in love with the PERFECT MAN, our Father, Creator, Savior. Being single is a time to learn more about Him and how to be a woman who flourishes for Him. Being single allows for a time to grow deeper in faith and understand pure joy. Being single allows our hearts to be full and look to Him to pursue us. Being single is a beautiful journey with Him.
When He is ready to bring the "perfect man" into our lives, He will. Know that. Believe that. Trust that. Quit looking for the "perfect man." It's easier to pursue and love Christ in every aspect of our lives until He brings the "perfect man" to not only love us like Christ does, but encourage us, pursue us, honor us, and do all of these things in His name.
Be patient ladies.
Until then...
"dance with the PERFECT MAN until He lets our 'perfect man' cut in."
