Single moments of transparency...

Any one who has read me in these single forums knows that my single status has been pestering me. I admit that I knew that I was just in a season, a temporary fleeting moment, that soon I'll be better than fine...

BUT still, it started me thinking…

Why all the sudden am I thinking about what's missing? Did He put in me a desire to have another because that is what He wants for me? I'm pragmatic by nature. I like to be reasonable and proactive. I like to work through my discomfort and restlessness head on with His help. I know that regardless what is to be, the realistic emotional logistics and realities, for now, insist that I get my priorities straight.

Rather than ponder, yearn and speculate on what He might have for me, I need to realize that the portion He has for me resides in Him. He calls us to be content and satisfied with our lot.


What was I suggesting, even manifesting that He is lacking? Was I saying that He's not enough, that something is missing?

Oh me oh my... where the inadequacy and insufficiency dwells is in my thinking…

Ahhhh deep breath, I am so glad that I have stepped back into His rest. I'm sure it won't be the last time of unease. However, when it comes down to it, He, nothing else or noone, can sustainably please. If I start wanting and longing, aching for more, how can my lines fall into pleasant places? It is at His right hand there are pleasures foevermore.

My Lord, please forgive my lack of praise, for not appreciating our relationship. I know You will always be more than enough. I lift my soul to Yours.

Now I want to add a disclaimer of sorts, lol, to anyone still reading. If you think my transparency is me just hinting and looking here for a partner, you are mistaken. I don't spend my life desperate and dissatisfied. In fact, most of the time, I am satisfied and blessed. I am only explaining myself because I guess I want you to know me, as I want to know you. I understand, though, how it must appear, but I have no agenda here; I am just sharing, connecting maybe with those who might understand.

Do you?

Well, I'm not sure how to word this, but sometimes no matter what, you realize your alone. You don't want to think that way obviously, but you know it's there. I hope I'm not misunderstanding you post.

I will just say something about your"disclaimer 😅 You dont have to you don't need to explain yourself why you are here 😅 God's love is shining through you sis ❤ and if ever you will find someone in your stay here that would be wonderful you could meet him just about anywhere and anytime



I joined two years ago with a broken heart 😂 and never thought of finding someone here... but you know God has other plans and God always has better plans 😊


You are a blessing sister 😊 Thank you for your wonderful threads



God bless you ❤

Yeah, true, I suppose. But we need to remember Jeremiah 15:16 that is where we need to fin our joy and rejoicing. If things change, that is ok, but if it doesn't, well then I need to be happy alone. But you worded it good, sometimes it is what it is, I'm alone. Dang it, bless my heart, hahaha.

Hey it is the sweetest Sister on the internet. Thank you for your kindness in your words of encouragement. Yes, what ever He has for us, here and everywhere is good, huh? You are such a blessing. Thank you Sis...♡

God is wonderful ❤ thank you sis ❤ and you are always welcome 😘

It is natural to want more than you have. If we didn't, everybody would be satisfied with a phone hanging on the wall that you have to turn the handle crank to make it work. But I sure am glad somebody wanted more, and wanted it bad enough to invent smartphones.

The problem comes when we get so wrapped up in what we want to have that we forget to enjoy (and appreciate and give thanks for) what we already have. But I get the impression you are nowhere near that point CharliRenee.

Don't let wanting more than you have consume you, but don't feel bad about wanting more than you have.

Thank you, Lynx, I suppose you are right. Maybe, it is another balance thing. Your phone reference made me laugh. Yes, I too am thankful for smart phones.

And sometimes, we would just like a hug from someone not related to us.

1000 yeses to that, for sure!!! Sounds like you understand, you get it.

We all have our moments! As I go about my happy single solo life. I gel a longing to have a woman in my life. I also know this could put me at risk of hardship in my life. So i thank the Lord for bringing contentment in my life.
