3 Questions to Ask Yourself When Waiting for the One

If you’re able to file your taxes as “single” or if the doctor’s office asks for your marital status and you answer with “single”, then this post is for you, friend.  Because no matter what our relationship status actually is (single as a pringle, newly talking to someone, dating, or engaged with a shiny rock on your finger), we all need to be reminded of the importance of waiting for the one.  The right one.

I’ll be quite honest with you, friend.  Writing posts about singleness and relationships is not really something that I enjoy doing.  I’ve got a lot of reasons for why it makes me uncomfortable.  But, when God places something on your heart, you better do it.  Truthfully, I should’ve written this post weeks ago.

Dear Christian Single: An Open Letter

Dear Christian Single,

I see you there stuck in despair.

Are You Single? Don’t Let Rocks be Kicked in Your Path

Wow.  Okay.  This post has proven to be a little tougher to write than I imagined it would be.  Especially since it is a topic that seems to come up in conversation almost daily… you’d think the words would just flow, but no.  No, I am not talking about politics… Although, I suppose I have a few thoughts to share on that front.  But, that’s a different time and a different place.  I’m talking about marriage, relationships, and being single.

My sweet mother and I were discussing this very topic a few weeks ago and she said something that has been running back and forth in my head ever since then.  It’s pretty much a guarantee if something has been stuck in my head, y’all are going to see a post about it (#sorrynotsorry).

If any of you have ever had a discussion about marriage with your mother, your grandmother, your aunt, your whoever, I’d almost venture to say that she may have told you something like “I just want the best for you!”  Am I right?
