I was talking in the previous post about getting rid of your armor. “But you never actually said how to do it!” I know, the first step is to make the decision, to want to get rid of your armor. Then, we can start the second step: removing it.

When people ask us for help in finding someone special, one of the first questions we ask them is: Why do you think you are still single? This post is going to address the answer of “I keep people out”.

It’s not easy to find someone. We must face all kinds of fears: fear of choosing the wrong partner, fear of being rejected, fear of intimacy and the fear of commitment. Unfortunately, some Christians use “God” to hide these fears.

Whether voluntarily or unconsciously, some Christians use a spiritual speech to justify their celibacy. Behind the beautiful rhetoric sometimes hides a fear that should be overcome, such as the fear of intimacy.

Some Christians say that they are waiting for God to find them a partner. Indeed, we must depend on God for our relationships, but sometimes these beautiful words hide multiple fears. Those of making a bad choice, or the fear of being rejected.
