Single and Saved

Today while sitting in the car with a co-worker waiting for a train to go by (I know it is crazy) we talked about relationship and guys. As I was checking my email just now I came across an email from a friend that conveys the conclusion we came to. So I decide to share it with you.



What makes you think that just because I aman attractive woman of Godly intelligence
That I'm incomplete without a mate?
Who told you that without a mansomething's missing from my life?
And if so, what would that be?Love?
I love myself and more importantly I love the Lord. He told me that when I delight in Him,He will give me the desires of my heartSecurity? I have everything I need according to His riches in glory. Intimacy? Now, how's a man going to get to know me when he doesn't even know who he is in the Lord. See my Father told me I'm above a ruby's worthAnd a gem does not seek, it is sought. I'm single and that's all right with me. See, it's not that I oppose relationships, it's that I detest co-dependency. As a woman I know it is not my role to chase after any man.Esther 2:14 reads that I am to wait on my king and when he's delighted in me. He willcall me by my name. My Lord does not intend for me to be needy or desperate. I am to be Cherished, Relished, Valued, and Honored. It's not my job to convince him or convict him of that,my mate will already know it and consistently show it. And he will stay on his knees daily,not just to adore me, but to praise the Lord For the virtuous woman he has found. So, when you see me by myself, I'm not alone.I know what I have coming to me. I'm single and saved, and right now that's all I need to be!
