I understand what's being said, the problem is that most the ladies I know are telling me that they don't feel God leading them to be more than friends with me, yet they refuse to even spend time with me. I think it's illogical to think that God is just gonna smack you over the head with the answers, you do have to still do the work.

I don't think waiting alone is enough to be ready. God might just answer your prayer, leaving you only to find yourself before your potential mate weighed measured and found wanting.

This waiting session confuses me sometimes.What am I gonna do?Is flirting and option? lol scary :(, might lead to the wrong one. Yeah waiting preparing myself 'till he finds me . I'd better stay put. It's say's in the bible it's the man who finds. Never i saw , it's the woman who finds a good man. LOL

Well, you asked what it is that you should do. Proverbs 31 is all about women.

Don't be like the world, follow God wherever he would have you go. Do not be jealous. Always tell the truth, even when it does not benefit you. Be slow to speak, slow to anger and cherish the wisdom of those who have gone before you.

Do all this and world will lay down at your feet. You will become the rarest form of woman known to man.

Everything is in God's plan.. The right person could be there but wait for the right time.. Just keep obeying God. Take the steps and risks that He wants., but never plunge yourself into an uncertain relationships that God doesn't approve. This way you'll glorify God and you'll keep yourself from unnecessary hurts. Our best interests are in God's heart. the Only thing we need to do is to yield to His will. We just need to trust in Him. After all, "He witholds nothing back to those whose walk is blameless before Him".God bless

Well you'll know it eventually if you just listen to God and pray. Some tips ffrom successful married couples include:
1. Seek God and prioritize Him above everything. (God wants to condition your heart or your partner may become your idol.)
2. Ready yourself. (I mean it takes a lot of maturity to have successful marriage. Are you and your partner-to-be spiritually, emotionally and financially ready?)
3. Make the Word of God your basis at everything. (So your partner should be a believer)
4. Know what's in your heart. (God meets the desires of your heart if you can really pay the price of obedience. One of our pastors desired to marry at 25 and she did marry at 25 with a husband "just perfect for her". )
5. Ask God for signs that confirms he is really the "one".

Successful, God-centered marriage is a dream of every Christian single. But in order to do that, we must learn and apply the word SURRENDER (to the Lord). Yes, it's an unpopular disgusting word in the world associated with the cowards. But it is one important action that we do to see God's hand move.

As a woman who is Christian since 5, with no boyfriend since birth, I was labeled different and peculiar. People try to ask me why and try to make me feel left out. Some of my friends would try to set me up for a date but i always turn it down. Yes they find me a weirdo with such high standards( though i'm really not). People are so curious about me and constantly ask me. And i always give them one-word-answer.... and it's called faith!

We know that we should have a God-fearing Christian partner. Many of us, when feeling left out, try to ask God and figure out who that special someone could be. We try to look for possibe partner in the church, (or worse in the outside world) and we if don't see someone as a "potential", we ask God skeptical questions.. On the other hand, if we find someone as a "potential" we quickly jump to it, without thinking, praying and seeking God's will fearing that God may disapprove it.

I believe that many of us are in constant search. But let me remind you that we should surrender in faith to our Brilliant Father! Seek the Lord rather than seeking for a possible partner. God has a plan and a time for everything. Don't waste your time searching that could end up in disaster. Let God do it, because when you let God, you make the wisest choice.If He thinks you're ready enough, He'll give the right one. Don't be in so much hurry like you're running out of possible partner.. just pray it to the Lord and believe He has the right one for you. Stop the stressful search, focus on God and you'll find peace within. Learn to trust God.. "for those who hope in the Lord will not be disappointed". In the perect time we're gonna have this promise fulfilled in our lives... if we take that step of FAITH! GOD BLESS!
Its the dream of every christian single???
