I am single, I do not date and I still live with my parents. By the world's standards I am awfully pathetic. But I do not care about this fading world. By the Lord's standard's I am a passionate, creative servant of Christ.
I am artistic, I like drawing and painting. I also write stories, hopefully I can get my novel finished and published. I am practicing writing short stories, and poetry.
I am seeking the Lord. I am reading the Bible all through. Right now I am in Isaiah. I am praying more often.
At one time I had a domestic dream of marrying 'Mr. Right.', leaving my parents and moving into a lovely Victorian house with a garden, grow beautiful flowers, vegetables, herbs and fruit, cooking with my home-grown produce, decorating the house, having sweet, well-mannered smart children, helping them with school projects, Make paintings for the house, clean up, help husband with household or yard projects, go to church, help out in church, celebrate holidays, especially Christmas.
But that did not happen. I never met the right man, and I fear scammers and abusers. Jesus Christ is my Prince Charming.
Here's what I read in the Bible about staying single:
"I would like you to be free from concern. An unmarried man is concerned about the Lord's affairs, -how he can please the Lord. But a married man is concerned about the affairs of this world-how he can please his wife-and his interests are divided. An unmarried woman or virgin is concerned about the Lords affairs. Her aim is to be devoted to the Lord in both body and spirit. But a married woman is concerned about the affairs of this world- how she can please her husband. I am saying this for your own good, not to restrict you but that you may live in a right way in undivided devotion to the Lord. " 1 Corinthians 7:32-35
Because of this, I will not seek a boyfriend or husband. I think it is God's will for me to stay single and celibate. I will not sin by fornication, it is too common in USA for people to have sex outside of marriage, they shame the sanctity of marriage, God created Adam and Eve, who are called, "the man and his wife," in Genesis first chapter. Adam and Eve were automatically married by the Lord. Marriage is sacred, holy, people need to wait for the right time, wait until they are ready for marriage. Sin is too common in America. I will not indulge in it.
