encouragement for the lonely and dateless

[enelessmakamba]

PRAISE THE LORD! Brother i am really really HAPPLY for U. God will never fail his children. I am encouraged BIG TIME.

May God bless you and your girlfriend.

I want to thank all of you guys for your prayers.

In fact.... as some of you know, God has answered my prayers and I am now in love with a beautiful lady called TiaJen4 who comes to this site.

I will write what happened on a thread under stories and it will show you that true romance is not dead. Our relationship is grounded in Jesus and while we havent met yet she has agreed to be my girlfriend. I love her with all my heart and God has answered the desires of my heart in her. We plan to meet as soon as we can and have unofficially made a lifetime commitment.


May this encourage anyone out there who cannot meet the right person that Jesus hears our prayers and knows what we want and Created to Worship is right, that someone better than those you have met is out there for you.

Who can separate us from the love of Christ? Romans 8 had it right
What is love? 1 Corinthians 13 has the answer
Why does God love us? John 3: 16 answers that question

God bless you all and thank you again.
David

i dont think there's any such thing as the right person. There are a thousand out there of similar traits and attributes, completely relatable and fun loving. it is up to you to find them.

Hi I am David, 35 from England. I used to be really stressed about not having met anyone and I used to have low self confidence that I could not meet anyone, but it says in the bible to "seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things will be added to you" and to "trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your paths".

I used to go to pubs and clubs and looked in wrong areas to meet someone in the past but found that it was like my desires had trapped me and Jesus had to release me from the lust in my heart. Lust focusses you off Jesus and onto yourself and makes you unhappy.

I believe that there are many lonely people out there but few are truly genuine and you have to wait until you meet the right person for you.

As for me I have never dated and at the age of 35 that is a bit scary I guess but I want to be pure and holy for my Saviour and have accepted I may never meet someone.

My advice would be dont let your frustration and loneliness draw you from Jesus but let His love fill you and pray for your future partner in faith that they will be cleansed by Jesus.

God bless
David

Hey, I believe your right bro. I want to ask you where did you find that passage "Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things will be added to you" and to "trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your paths". were is this passage in bible?

The positive thing about this is that I was devastated when this relationship broke up but I met someone else since and known them now for about 3 years. Almost a year ago I got down on one knee on a Scottish beach and she said "I will" and it was the happiest day of my life.

I share this as the ultimate encouragement for the lonely and dateless because I met that person online when I'd given up hope and now am looking forward to next year when we marry in April.

When I started writing this thread 5 years ago I didn't know I'd go through such a journey in my faith but all I do know is God is faithful to sustain us and I hope this blesses, helps and encourages people.

God bless

"Lust focusses you off Jesus and onto yourself and makes you unhappy." - I love this statement. This is so true. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Being single doesn't mean we have to be lonely. Sometimes it's all in our head. God bless you bro!

that is very true and God has to meet that need to prepare your heart. Yes there may be pain and heart break along the way but the reward is worth it for honouring God.

God bless
