We’ve looked for someone for a long time (too long some may think!) and still nobody. It almost feels like we are alone in the world with our standard. A prophet in the Bible felt the same way; his story can encourage us all.

The first date is a crucial step because from the first impressions we may decide whether or not the relationship will soar. Better to be prepared.

When we pray about our singleness, God often answers with a promise. A verse springs out of the Bible, a spiritual authority gives us a special word or many other signs. To believe in this promise, we must remember WHO made it.

It’s not always easy to be a pastor! Sometimes, people ask pastors to pray for needs that are very hard to meet, especially when it comes to marriage! No wonder why some pastors look to flee when they see a single member of their congregation approaching them.

For the vast majority of singles, marriage looks like an improvement to their situation. But is that really the case? If we idealize marriage, we are more than likely to be surprised after the honeymoon. It also applies to our relationship with God.
