LOVE LETTERS|DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR SINGLES|DAY 46

Scripture for Today

1 Corinthians 7:17 And don't be wishing you were someplace else or with someone else. Where you are right now is God's place for you. Live and obey and love and believe right there. God, not your marital status, defines your life. Don't think I'm being harder on you than on the others. I give this same counsel in all the churches. (Msg)

So yesterday was Valentine's day. So how did you spend it?. Did you have fun alone or with someone special? So I know a lot of us work up this morning with a lot of worries in our heart after yesterday. You were obviously disappointed at the out come, maybe you were expecting that by now you will be married, have a family of your own and not alone.

The time of singleness is the time when you embrace who God has called you to be. God has called us to love, to be happy, to cherish every phase we find ourselves in. Was talking to someone yesterday after an event and she said she was wishing she was with someone else. The truth is, where you are right now is God's place for you. Why the rush to get out of it? Get me, as believers God has called us out of the world to make a difference, he has called us so we can be people of influence and impact. Whether you are single or married, divorced or widowed you have a place in God and he is more than enough for you.

The time of loneliness and singleness could be a tiring phase if you are so eager and anxious to get out of  it. Look through the scriptures most people that God dealt with, he had them separated from friends and family and loved ones. God is preparing you for a greater future, so why don't you embrace the phase and love God tirelessly. He has given you all that you need to fulfill his purpose and glory in your life.

Don't rush out, enjoy the phase.

Prayer: Father, I commit myself into your hands. Grant me the grace to fulfill your purpose in every phase I find myself.
