Hey y'all! So this week has been a slap in the face of how much I have actually been pushing down my feelings about how I am not that okay with being single. Living in a community of people who are either getting into relationships or are getting married or having kids is a hard thing to think about when I'm 21 & haven't dated since 10th grade (which only lasted for 3 days). I know that God has a plan for my life & will bring a guy into my life when it is His time & not mine. The worldly side of me is very impatient though (despite my name). I look at couples & I either: 1) think they're really cute, or 2) what to puke rainbows & are jealous because I want a relationship like that. Maybe that is why God has not placed someone in my life because I have not learned to be content with how my life is now. But the good news is that I know that God does have a plan & that if He wants it to happen then it will happen & all I have to do is follow Him. My future is set no matter how much I want to be in a relationship with a guy who is passionate about the Lord & meets all of my other qualities. I'm also extremely picky about what I look for in someone (as I have mentioned in other posts) & that also hinders my chance of finding someone, because no one is gonna be perfect. Shoot! Even the guy I like now doesn't have everything I am looking for but he is close enough. God is softening my heart day by day & preparing my heart for the one day when I will find that guy who is just what HE wants for me & not what I want for my self. So for now I am "living la vida single" & I have to learn to be okay with it.
This week's song list is one for all of single ladies/gentlemen! Here it is:
- "Single Ladies" by Beyonce
- "Want U Back" by Cher Lloyd
- "Falling for You" by Colbie Callet
- "Me & My Broken Heart" by Rixton
- "Single" by Natasha Bendingfield
- "I Don't Wanna Be in Love" by Good Charlotte
- "Stronger" by Britney Spears
- "Ridin' Solo" by Jason Derulo
- "I Don't Need a Man" by The Pussycat Dolls
- "Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)" by Kelly Clarkson
So there you have it folks! So the main point is that even if you are single & are feeling like you're gonna be single forever, don't worry because God has a plan for you & it will happen if He wills it to. For now just relax & don't stress about the worries of being in a relationship. I hope y'all have a very happy Easter & spend this weekend remembering that God died on the cross for your sins & rose 3 days later. Isn't that amazing?! That is why we are allowed to sit here & worry about our lives & don't have to worry about God condemning us for complaining about His plan. We are saved & all we have to do is talk to God & ask for repentance of our sins! This weekend is really important to me & is one of the main reasons I am here today typing this post! That is all for now & will stop babbling. Have a great week & I will see/type to you on the next post!
Live for God & Love for Music!
