Single and Making It

. Single and making it. It means that you're handling all that life has sent your way. You're not depressed; you're seeking God for all answers, and you're even careful of your choice of friends. As Christians, we should always depend on God for our strength and comfort. Basically, you're seeking the kingdom of God, and everything else is just falling into place. As Christians we want to live that total and acceptable life for Christ, but we don't know how. God intends for you to be single until he is ready to send you that soul mate. Stop focusing on the when, why's, and how's, and live for the now. Like my grandmother used to say, "A watched pot never boils." No one ever knows when that special person is coming into her life, just like we don't know the time and date of the rapture, but we prepare ourselves for it daily, just like we should be preparing ourselves for our companion. We fast, pray, read God's word, associate ourselves with other Christians, and attend church frequently-all for the sake of getting into heaven when the time comes. We should take this same attitude about preparing ourselves for our soul mates. We should read the word on a daily basis, learn how to compromise, share, accept change, and even practice being submissive. If we do these things appropriately, we will be in a position to accept our precious gift and enjoy the rest of our lives together serving God. As Christians, we should never settle for less. Always do what's right by God, never sacrifice your Christian beliefs for no man, and always remember, God will never send an individual into your life that will cause you mental grief or bodily harm.
