I know God has a perfect plan, but is it ok t o tell God that I'm not sure if I am ok with being single the rest of my life? not that I feel that that is Gods plan for me. God already knows anyway how I feel right >?, and he is a big God so I think he understands.Also, I find it annoying when ppl tell me that I will find someone when I don't want aniyone aniymore, am I the only one?I think that is the case sometimes. God has a diff plan for eve ryone. it just is important to stay focussed on God and not the lack of that special someone.

sweet_eyes, hi :)

i think its perfectly fine to tell God that you'd like a husband- as long as its His will. I think its ok we ask him for anything, keeping in mind the contingency 'if thats Your will, Lord.' because if its not His will, and we want it anyway, thats like us telling Him that we know better than He does.

but i understand your frustration when people tell you that you will find someone when you aren't looking. i'm sorry you've felt that way :-\ . i think that people just say that because of the example of Ruth and Boaz in the Old Testament. Ruth was just gleaning the fields, doing work and seeking God's face, and then Boaz comes and chooses her. However you are right, God is not limited to only provide you a husband under circumstances like those.

i don't want to say all the things i'm sure you've already heard, but i'd like to encourage you not to be too eager :) God can do amazing things with a single woman after His own heart. the possibilities are endless! i am also young and single, and i am excited about how God can use me while i'm still only serving Him, as opposed to when i'm married and also serving my husband under Him.

i wish you the best of luck with everything, and i'll be praying that God brings you a mighty man of faith who will love and treat you exactly how you deserve to be loved and treated. :)

I think you should be able to tell god whatever you want. Weather or not he gives it to you is up to him, i look at it like this, hes god hes our father, so when im angry or when im upset, i literally start talking to god outloud saying why im mad, and i think you should tell god exactly whats up with you.. that you want want a husband, obviously though the answer is ultimatly up to him
