To Be or Not to Be....
Angry is the question. I have been walking through some things the past few weeks. Everything seems to come back to being single. I have to ask myself questions quite frequently like, am I happy being single? Am I content with where God has me in life? Am I blessed to be single? I have had to walk around the past few weeks and really examine my life. I don't want to be angry for being single!! I don't want to look at being single as a curse!!! I don't want to live my life angry because then what value is that to me!!! It profits nothing. We live in a world where everyone asks you a standard of questions when you first meet them, one of them being are you married or single? I have been on the receiving end of people's faces when they ask how old are you, and your not married yet? Our world says that a woman cannot be complete unless she is married. That is completely not true. I need to be able to find my identity in the Lord first and not look to any man or any person to complete me. It isn't easy sometimes to be this old and still be single. Its not easy when you belong to a great church and there is an emphasis on marriage and the value that is placed on marriages. I want one day to have the greatest marriage that God can give but right now I want to have the greatest marriage with Jesus!!! I don't want to live my life angry because of the season I am in. So I chose this day to NOT be angry. I chose to be blessed because I am single. There are a lot of great and wonderful things I can do because I am single and I choose to look at the positive and I choose to walk in the freedom of being single!!!!
