Symptoms of those who tend to struggle with singleness in life include difficulties with:


  • Identity (“Who am I?” “What is my purpose?”); (Ephesians 2:10)
  • Loneliness (“I need someone to share my life.” “I feel so alone.”); (Hebrews 13:5)
  • Rejection (“I am not wanted.” “I must not be lovable.”); (1 John 3:1)
  • Fear (“I will be all alone when I am old.” “I don’t want to be hurt ever again.”); (Isaiah 41:10)
  • Bitterness (“I am not receiving the best in life.” “God must be punishing me.”); (Psalm 84:11)
  • Sexuality (“A sexual relationship is the only means to intimacy.” “I don’t know what to do with my sexual desires.”); (Romans 12:1)
  • Self-Worth (“I don’t feel valuable.” “I am not worthy enough to be loved.”); (Isaiah 43:4)

I think all Christian singles have probably felt or thought some of the emotions above.. the scripture references are good answers to each thought.

Did anyone else catch the hilarious typo in the website address (at least I'm assuming it's a typo)? I think a lot of married people feel the same emotions too though. It's part of being human.
