I never lived in the single world. Married early and have been married 43 years. Being married isn’t very pleasent, marriage has been very dull, boring, uneventful. I guess it will always be that way. I really yearn to try being single. Stay single as long as you can, cause married life is not very pretty.

To: melisa: its only on your minds not in your heart because the temple of God is our heart with understanding and love of God, it doesnt mean if you are alone it much better to worship God alone as in yourself?, but on mine opinion is not like that because I have a family with me,that if we are in God for wonderful experience we may have to the Lord it much better to spread the word to everyone and aside from that being with the Lord it said in the book of life when God gave talents we should share it to bear much fruits so when the time our God will come He will ask about our mission and we have the confidence to see Him face to face and not to ashamed because we do our best to do His will in all of our steps, and when it come to identity its on your beliefs who you are, that will be you and no one can change it, no one can get it because the word is in you is Jesus, for the word that you may have is in your mouth is in your heart,is in your minds,is in your steps and Journey.no matter what people may say on you; you stay on your beliefs, no one can say do this and that, or no can say this is you?even its not.

as it said Galacian 5:10;12;14;25

I am confident in the Lord that you will take no other view. the one who will throwing you in confusion will pay penalty whoever he may be, as for these as for those agitators, I wish they would go the whole way and emasculate themselves; the entire law is summed in a single command Love your neighbor as you love yourself, do good to them not to curse, pray for them as they may walk with us so they may experience being with God is LIFE

for since we live by the Spirit let us keep in step with the Spirit.if we know Jesus is righteous you know that everyone that do righteousness is born on Him your heart is with the Lord ,your minds is His walks of life and will, your ears to His teaching, your eyes on the truth, your lips is for His praising of goodness, your hands is to His law,your walks is being devoted to the Lord and the rest is the whole you as child of God.

Being single is a kind of freedom to serve not to be serve as it said Galacian 5:13 You my brother were called to be free but do not use your freedom indulge sinful nature rather serve one another in love(The message)

i agree with melissa, being single allows you to focus on your faith, i have been single for five years and my faith now is stronger and i get my identity from my faith and not from a man. i feel women have been mis-progammed by society to gain identity from the men in their lives. i also feel most women fall in and out of relationship because they lower their expectations when seeking a husband, i rather remain alone longer that fail in my faith so as to attract a man. seek ye first the kingdom of God and all others shall be added unto you….

Being single is not the life I want to live. I am happiest when I have someone in my life I can think of bringing a smile. Bringing his favorite cookies and placing them under his pillow. Writing love notes on the shaving cream or note in his shoe.

Selfish –its’ all about me is not lasting. Neither is doing for others all the time. You need balance. Balance is the key. God is with us and shows His love through others. Those who betray us are not if the loving God.

I think the biggest thing we are missing in this article is that when you are single you hav much much more time to seriously focus on your relationship with God. I think sometimes we are meant to be single because God is planning to utilize us in a great way or because we are meant to grow greatly in our faith in Him and Him alone. It’s something Paul points out in 1 Corinthians, “To the unmarried and the widoes I say: It is good for them to stay unmarried, as I am.” Paul says this because he knows that when you are in a relationship with someone you are spend time focusing on that person. This isn’t a bad thing, your relationship (if it is right and God willed) is meant to glorify God. If you are single, however, you are simply meant to glorify God in a different way and it’s almost as if he demands more of your attention. You are being called to walk alone with the Lord.

being single it makes you realized something good, adventures about your self, about your plans and dreams in life, and its nice more living with peace or having life with God, being with Him we learned lot of things about knowledge of

truth,understanding and love that someday you can share to everybody specially the word of God;and when the time you will enter in a relatioship you know how to handle every situation coz is God is the center of a relatioship, or as a guidance in your way and much better if same religion so that there is no mis understading of both of you or maybe you may encourage him/her in a fellowship as you are the key to enter him/her in the kingdom of God as it said Proverbs 3:16-18

Long life is in her right hand and in her left hand are riches and honor;her ways are pleasant way and all her path is peace for she is a tree of life to those who embrace her those who laid hold of her will be blessed.

I am a single mother of three children. Freedom is not something I can enjoy as suggested in your article. Are there any articles regarding being single and being a parent??

Me and my sister both are in a season of singleness, and we are struggling to stay afloat. We both strongly desire husbands who also love God. We are single moms as well and it gets hard sometimes to not having that partner there. I have been single for a long time and I guess that it is time to start enjoying this time with myself and my daughter until God blesses me in that area. Thanks for the good word on appreciating this time of singleness!
