First and foremost, I want to say a HUGE thank you to the people that have contributed their beautiful thoughts to this post. May God bless you. This post is based loosely on 1st Peter 5:9 Resist him (the devil), stand firm in your faith, knowing that the same kindsContinue Reading

There are times as a single when you can’t help but wonder “will it be this year or next year, will I be single foreverrrr.” When having a conversation with my friend, it came to me. The gift of singleness is like a pregnancy. There is a long wait forContinue Reading

I mean this question with the utmost sincerity. Have you? Have I? I don’t just mean the words you utter under your breath when you see a girl giving her guy grief or when you see how much money and energy your friend spends. No. Have we and do weContinue Reading

Why I’ve chosen a path of emotional unavailability

Scandalous right? When the thought to consciously pursue this came to me, I had to pray because I couldn’t imagine how a guy would take further interest if he was just getting a little bit above the bare minimum from me. But you know God, ever so wise, confirmed thisContinue Reading

If I had a pound for every time I heard this response to me being single…I wouldn’t be a millionaire but I’d have some spare change. Singleness is not a disease that can be cured by a beautiful exterior. If this were true there would be no lonely ‘beautiful’ peopleContinue Reading

I’ve been planning (and procastinating) how to write this blogpost in a diplomatic way lol. The Holy Spirit is in control.
