God, Life, Women

You’re single, now what?

In my past, I remember breaking up with a guy that I had planned on being with forever.  We had great times, but other times were rocky. I stepped out by faith when ending the relationship. After finally breaking it off, God guided me to the steps that he wanted me to take. These steps consisted of finding myself again, enjoying the single life, and waiting on him for a courtship.

    First, I had to find myself again. It’s crazy how, when entering a relationship, we can slowly begin to change. The change can make us better or worst depending on the person that we’re dating. I remember doing things that I usually wouldn’t do, and I remember trying to make myself perfect. In reality, I will never be perfect. The only perfect person is God. I lost myself, but I’m thankful that God brought me back to my safe place. The kind of place where I didn’t have to change, and I was happy being me.

Second, it was time for me to enjoy the single life. What do you mean to enjoy the single life? Enjoying the single life is the best time to grow closer to God without any distractions. I no longer had to deal with unwanted arguments and feelings of not being appreciated. While single, I’m able to focus more. It’s the perfect time to better myself for the man who God has ready for me.

Third, Cheers to waiting on God! The best thing I could do is wait on God. Why rush into another relationship knowing that God is not a rush God? God keeps us waiting, so he can work on us before bringing the right man along. When you truly trust God, you don’t mind waiting on him. It might take a week, month, or year, but the goal is to remain faithful. God knows what we want and need.

You might feel like you’ve been waiting forever for God to bring you a man, my message for you is to keep waiting. While waiting stay faithful, and always stay ready! I don’t mind waiting, because I know what God has for me is for me. I’m trying it his way now, and I’m not doing it on my own anymore. I urge any woman reading this blog to stay faithful. God is going to bless you, but you have to believe it so that you can receive it.

  1. Awesome blog post. Everything you wrote about reminds me of a past relationship I was in before meeting my husband. Cheers to cutting off dead in relationships. Singleness is not a bad thing at all.

  2. I thought my comment had posted, I guess not. Nevertheless, I agree with your blog. I remember when I was with a guy before my husband and thought it was going to work. God is so amazing when he shows us warning signs. There is nothing wrong with being single. Just wait and watch how God moves. Sometimes the waiting is longer for others.
