Until God reveals
His choice for you, He wants you to find contentment in your unmarried state. Single people often envy those who are married, and married people often envy those who are single. But the Bible tells us, "Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, 'I will never leave you nor forsake you' " (Hebrews 13:5 NKJV).

Many, in their desire to be married, have become desperate in their search for the right person. But the singles' scene, from nightclubs to mindless TV programs that only emphasize sex, offers nothing but emptiness. Not only is it shallow, it's also spiritually harmful.

Don't let this world tell you what to look for (Colossians 2:8).

I know it's hard sometimes. It gets lonely. You might be thinking, "I'm tired of waiting. I'm just going to go out and find someone and hope I make the right decision." Please throw on the brakes. Slow down. Don't make that mistake. Rushing into marriage without the proper timing is like building a house without the proper foundation.

Some people are called to be single their entire lives. This is rare, but it happens, and it's a special calling from the Lord. However, this isn't God's calling for everyone. Just as surely as God has created you with a void in your life for Him, He also has created you with a void in your life for a companion, someone with whom to share your life (Genesis 2:18).

If you're single and want to be married, then I believe that God has handpicked someone just for you. It might be someone you've never met.

You might meet that person next week, next month, or next year. You might meet that person today. Or, perhaps it's someone you've known for years. Whoever it may be, God will reveal that person in His timing.

Until then, it's so important to follow God's way and wait on His timing. Be faithful to Him and live the way He wants you to live.

Seek to live a life that pleases Him (Matthew 6:33). He will bring that person into your life. Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God.

I can so relate with this. Sometimes don't we just get tired of waiting for the right person to come? And with our idesire to search for this someone we end up with the wrong person after all? And don't you feel that you've got so much love to give, yet no one to share it with?

All these years, I've been waiting for the right person to come into my life. I know that in His time, I will meet this certain someone. He might be someone I've known all my life, or someone I haven't met yet. But i intend to wait.. "All good things happen to those who wait.." This quote has inspired me to wait for the better things to come my way in His time..
