Can I be candid?
Marriage ain't for me... YET! but I had the darnedest time admitting that truth to myself for the longest. I desperately wanted to be married, but I thought admitting to God as well as to myself that I needed some lessons on becoming a one-man woman for life would prolong the process. (patience was one of my toughest lessons if you can't tell lol) Then God checked me. I began to realize if I didn't have any practice as a single woman being faithful to God, of course I wouldn't have the skill sets to be an effective and successful wife with my husband. So I decided to do things God's way this time around. I started to read more about marriage and the reason for it and I became comforted in the scripture of where marriage began. Genesis 2:18 (NKJV) "And the Lord God said, “It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him." This scripture helped me believe in the God's timing and plan for my love life because if God wanted us to be single and saved 24/7 all the days of our lives He wouldn't have declared it to be a negative thing. God allowed Adam to be alone for a short while, to do his work (name the animals, tend to the garden etc.). However, God did not keep him single for long and Eve came through shortly after. Now I am not saying your prince charming is coming asap, nor am I claiming that things may take longer than you think. I only hope this scripture encourages you on your journey of purity as God writes your love story. Thanks for reading lovelies! Peace & Blessings, <3 Nándi

I did not know how to wait nor did I understand why I had to wait for my husband until recently. Once I turned to my Bible I found my answer. I realized that a lot of the promises in the Bible took a significant amount of time for the people of God to receive. That's when I came up with the three P's first comes the promise, then comes the preparation (in the wait) finally there's patience. So lovelies, be encouraged, anything worth becoming and having is definitely worth working for. So continue your journey of purity and faithfulness no matter what! I have no doubt that each step you take towards God will bring both you and your future husband closer. Thanks for reading lovelies! Peace & Blessings, <3 Nándi 1st Corinthians 13:4-7 (NKJV) "4 Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not [b]puffed up; 5 does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, [c]thinks no evil; 6 does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things." |
