SINGLENESS IS NOT A CURSE

I’ve been in several relationships; they’ve taught me many lessons and shown me things about myself that were quite interesting. When we first enter a relationship, we are excited, happy, and enjoy engaging with the other person. Over time, the honeymoon phase of the relationship starts to fade because we have spent and shared so many experiences together without a plan. Spending so much time together without truly discussing what we’re doing, where we’re going, or what our plan for the future is can be truly a waste of time. In other words, I have learned that at some point in my life, I allowed myself to be involved in relationships that were never going anywhere.

I have been single for some time now because I’m definitely not desperate to just have anyone in my life. I use my singleness to move closer to God and to have an intimate relationship with Him. I know He loves me, and I know that right now, He is all I need. I use this time to continually grow in my purpose, self-care, and love. I’m enjoying the love of God in my life, and I’m learning how to love myself more. I have learned during this time not to wear my heart on my sleeve. I have also learned that God loves me wholeheartedly and that He will never leave me nor forsake me. I know one day my life will change, and I will experience happiness with someone who will love me for who I am, just like the love of God. I’m never alone, sometimes just lonely.

There’s a difference!
