OK Bloft,

I'll buy it...."Singleness can be a date with destiny".....

But ...who's picking up the check?

I've always been single. Being single is not for everybody, but it's not some kind of tragic disease.

Destiny and favor are things that money can't buy. There is no price, no check that can begin to pay for the unmerited favor that comes with serinity, peace, love, and joy. Dating with destiny there will be mistakes,and wrong turns along the way because our paths are not always clear. Sometimes we pay for our mistakes and other times they are simply pardoned.

Yes you are right! Singlesness is not a tragic disease. Some people will never marry. I have been single all my life and it has been a time of really getting to know me and unselfishly sharing my gifts and talents with others.

I feel a sense of accomplishment in life. When I observe how other friends and family members have failed at marriage due to wrong choices, it gives me the patience to wait until... whatever is destined to happen, happens.

Bloft I like your thoughtful replies.

You give singleness a new shine and value.

Thank you.

You're right I have found opportunity to "do for others" and "give of myself" in ways that would probably not fit into a traditional marriage.

Having been in both situations, I'm quite content to enjoy my destinyf today while always remaining open to what tomorrow may bring.

Peace

I like the way you think.

Michael it is the wisdom of the Lord, because I have had to learn the hard way. I pray that with everything I write or speak, it will inspire and motivate others to think outside of the box of old mind-sets, rejection, hurt & pain and see God's new mercies everyday. Life can be fun, beautiful, blissful and a great big blessing when we truly learn how to live it inspite of the opposition.
