Where is my prince charming?
Sometimes I hate being a girl....being so emotional and feeling so helpless. Dont get me wrong it has its ups too but for real. God wired us so weird and I sometimes hate it. Like you all know I am 22 years old and soon I will be 23 and there is no guy in sight even for me. I thought there was but I guess I was wrong about it. Hmmmm maybe I will be single for the rest of my life I dunno but soon it will be like I am old and never have anyone....and be alone forever. Ok I am sure most of you didnt expect this to come from me...cause yes I am happy being single I got true revelation on this...but I dont want to be single for the rest of my life...I am almost mid twenties and I want something to happen you know for me to meet him and hang out with him as a friend and then a relationship bloom. I dream of that. My knight in shining armour with his white horse coming to rescue me from this nightmare I am in....thats who I want. And I am ready. Ok yeah I know I am prob not but for real I want it to happen. Well I dont know what else to say I just wanted to rant about this for a bit and now that its out I am good.

I don't think we are ever 'ready'... i think we should always work on ourselves... even when we do have someone! I once had a wise man tell me to pursue God and one day you will look beside you and you will notice a guy going in the same direction at the same speed... and then you will know that it's God. Its good stuff! I know u already know this but as a woman you need to find your identity in Christ... you need to let Him take your troubbles... men cannot do that, yes they rescue you in a way but just because you have a man doesn't mean that your troubbles go away... Nikki... your are a beutiful woman of God and a dear friend of mine! Patience... sometimes God's timming is not our own! Your prince charming is on his way! Trust that! He WILL come rescue you Cinderella... when he sees you he will be captivated! Trust God for that... believe for that! Whats this year again Cinderella? Be blessed, i love you!
Oye, I don't know if I should even comment on this particular blog, cause boy can I tell you. Not wanting to be single for ever is definatly not restricted to women. I'm not waiting for an amazon in shining armor to come and rescue me, (Though that might be kind of cool.) but finding somone who fits me would be pretty nifty.
I think Dawn has it pretty right, we need to keep working on our selves, and keep obeying God and eventualy we'll find the one God has for us.
I can't speak for anyone but my self, but I think that some of the strongholds in my life have directly effected my ability to find the one that God has for me. Maybe that's just my own thinking, and maybe it's God's. But I fully believe that when i'm able to bust down those doors and give up the last bastions of my self that i'm holding inside that i'll finaly be able to step out and start experiancing a lot of the things that God has wanted to get to me for years. Relationship, dreams, all kinds of things.
Our God is a good God, no not just a good God, he's a Ginormous, miraculouse, all powerfull, all loving, marvelous God who wants nothing but to love us, and prosper us. And I know that he has great things for you, and I know that if you keep trucken that he's going to get them to you.
Peace
First of all, the vulnerablility in a post like this is quite striking, because for me, I don't know if I would write about that kind of stuff - things I've even wanted to write about but don't when it comes to relationship or marriage. (Stuff I don't post anyway)
Secondly, the time will totally come. Don't be such a rush! Trust me, rushing sucks, you know I've done it, and it definitely isn't worth it. Patience and I agree with Dawn. Look at yourself Nikki and try to see yourself from the outside looking in. Critique yourself and see if you can work on anything that needs work before you can get to that stage.
I prayed for my marriage and my wife a few months ago (still do) and in my main prayer, I asked God to 'make me the man I need to be for her and for you Lord, and make her the woman she needs to be for me and for you'. Then be open to change! I don't know, I thought that prayer was all around good. I want to change so I can be someone's dream and through Christ, hopefully exceed their expectations~! It's comin girl, all in due time!
And as for Scott, I think that our own choices like you put, are definately possible reasons why we might not have things we want. That's why it's always good to check ourselves and if you just can't see, then ask a trusted friend what they see! It's not always the case, but definitely a possibility - everyone have a great day!
ok, well, mine comment is not as serious as the others...i know you won't be single forever, i keep thinking about my aunt who's been single all her life - ouch, but i love her to death. God's got a guy for you, and you two are going to be brought together like no other two people.
Hey Hun, I hear ya sista, being single sucks at times. But look at this time as a time to grow more into the women Gods creating you to be, to learn how to take care of your home, to take care of bills and such. This time while we are single is a time God is making us ready for our Husband, and hes also making our guy ready for us.
keep waiting for the one, and dont settle for 2nd best
Pretty sure we've all got that longing to be with someone. Afterall, 'it isn't good for man to be alone' (Genesis 2:18)
So we've all got to do the same thing. Go work in the field while you wait and the day, the person, will come. It'll take work to get what you've always wanted, but that just relates to our relationship with God - which also takes a lot of work to go deeper. Mostly made up of change within ourselves.
Patience, work and evaluating what YOU need to do to change. Prayer and petition.
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. Phillipians 4:6
I'll stop there so I don't write a blog on Nikki's comment section.. :S
*sings* Nikki, Nikki, Nikki, fa na na na na na Nikki, fee fi fo-fikki, Nikki!!
Nikki...Wow. This is one so many of us can relate to at one time or another! Just when I get over that longing and I'm okay having God hold my heart - my youngest (Celo) asks me this question yesterday: "Mom, so how long would you wait to get engaged if you meet your husband?" I say, probably a year. He thinks, then says, "How long after would you get married?" I chuckle and reply, 6 months to a year sounds reasonable. Keeping in mind the whole time I haven't met anyone who comes close to being "the one". So after he thinks a little more, he says, "So when would you have your first baby?" Oh my goodness. How blunt was he?? So I smiled and said IF there was another baby, probably at least a year. Very sadly he says, "So I have to wait 3-4 more years for my baby brother?" Talk about pressure!!! LOL. So ya, big dilemas but everyone so far is right in saying, trust God. My friend has a saying I like..."I'd rather spend the rest of my life alone, than one day married to someone who is not meant to be my husband". Keep pressing in, and when you are satisified with being you 'alone' you will be blessed when "he" finally sweeps you off your feet!!! ~ Cristina
