Saved & Single

a friend of mine sent this to me a few years back, while cleaning out my email today I found it.  Thought I'd post if for all you single ladies waiting on the Lord. May it make you laugh & think.

Saved & Single

- Author Unknown

What makes you think that just because I am an

Attractive woman of Godly intelligence

That I' m incomplete without a mate?

Who told you that

Without a man

Something ' 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 heart

Security?

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 worth

And 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 will call 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!
