I pray that you never give up your dreams...
that you follow your calling...
that you realize that he or she is not everything...
The other day I was just thinking about how many times I have let the idea of being with someone get in the way of what I could be... of what God is calling me to do. I would much rather be single the rest of my life than get distracted and miss out on what the Lord has for me. I am tired of losing focus on the things that don't matter. My heart is to serve and please the Lord, my God... so, in the thoughts of marriage and finding the one, I pray that my heart will stay guarded and that I will place my commitment to God above everything. I want to focus on falling in love with God, before I can ever even begin to think of falling in love with someone else. I pray that you, too, may realize the importance of this significant, sacred aspect of life. After talking about marriage at bible study last week (in 1 Corinthians), I am seeing more and more why Paul wished that we could all be single. Don't get me wrong, I believe in marriage and that it is definitely a good thing, but I realize the importance of being single and using that time given to you to fall madly in love with Him.

As you know, this is a struggle every day in my own life. But every day, the Lord washes away every desire for anyone else. A boy can give you flowers, but the Lord has made every flower, every color, every scent just for the sole purpose of pleasing his creation, his children, his bride. No one can beat that or ever compare. A man's love is something to be thankful for if and when it is sent by God, but it does not compare to the Lover of our Souls.
