The Bride of Christ

Hey! I thought the bride of Christ was the church, but I was wrong. It is every single believer that seeks to know the heart of God and draw closer to Him. It took me soo many relationships and painful heartbreaking break ups, for God to get my attention. I have made the decision to do what God has placed on my heart and I am gonna need lots of accountability.

No longer will I be dating or in any relationships beyond a friendship level for 2 years. This is going to be a very intresting and hard two year commitment, but I believe it is the right thing to do. Just the thought of accomplishing this goal seems impossible, but it is possible through Christ. I have been running towards an alter with no groom in hand for so long and marriage has been plaguing my mind with none stop dreams and hopes, but I have only had one serious relationship. And it couldn't have been that serious because the guy was on drinking a lot. But now I have to sacrifice my desire to be married, every opportunity I have for getting close to guys, and become the number one best role model for saying NO to relationships. So keep me in your prayers.

Well, I may be a little crazy, but I know I have to do this, because the Lord said to me that if I can't be fully satisfied with the One that loves me perfectly, then how will I ever be satisfied by someone who loves me imperfectly. Something to think about. Also, I recognize life isn't all about getting married and having a family, even though those are great goals to accomplish in life. Life is about living in the fullness of what God purposed you for. When you are living the life He planned for you from the foundation of the world....you find your purpose, you bring love and hope to others, and you store up eternal treasures in heaven. Those who live life to love others end up loving to live. Be blessed..

Paul said it's better to be alone.  I had a long period of time in my singleness where I was marriage crazy and then God showed me how singleness is better in some ways.  From that period of time I can kind of understand what Paul meant by that...and I became content with the idea of being single.  Then he sent me the man of my dreams...and I knew we could do more together. You'll know when it's the right person.  I know people say that, but you really will KNOW.  Jesus is the best husband...you're going to be blessed like crazy for commiting this time to Him
