How Do I Get There?
The Bible doesn’t give us a step-by-step guide called “How to Date,” but it does give us God’s wisdom for how we are supposed to live. That means dating isn’t something we have to figure out without Him. God cares about how we handle every part of our lives, including how we choose the person…

You’re Not Single, You’re Reserved
Understanding God’s Purpose in Your Season of Singleness Romans 8:29 (NLT) says, “For God knew his people in advance, and he chose them to become like his Son, so that his Son would be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters.” Before we ever understood our purpose, God already knew the work He desired to…

Walking Together Begins with Walking with God
Sometimes we think that once we become born-again believers, life should automatically fall into place. We may believe that because we pray, seek God, and desire to honor Him, the things closest to our hearts should happen in our timing. I know many single believers have marriage at the top of their prayer list. And…

Loving Each Other Well
What It Looks Like to Carry the Heart of God Toward Others One of the clearest signs that God is truly working in us is not how spiritual we sound, how many scriptures we can quote, or how polished we appear in public. It is how we love people. Real love is not just smiles,…

Jesus Christ Wants All of You
Sometimes the Real Blocker Is What’s Happening Inside of Us John 15:5 (NLT) “Yes, I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who remain in me, and I in them, will produce much fruit. For apart from me you can do nothing.” Jesus used parables often because He wanted people to understand spiritual truth…

When Reality Finally Catches Up with Truth
Ecclesiastes 7:12 (NLT) “Wisdom and money can get you almost anything, but only wisdom can save your life.” I was talking to a Christian woman the other day, and she told me she sometimes wishes she could do her life over again. She’s in her late fifties and has never experienced married life. She admitted…

Crossing into the “Will I Ever” Lane
When Waiting Feels Like It’s Not Moving Psalm 91:15–16 (NLT) says, “When they call on me, I will answer; I will be with them in trouble. I will rescue and honor them. I will reward them with a long life and give them my salvation.” That’s not just a comforting verse—it’s a promise we can…

Be Careful Not to Forget the Lord
When Something Else Starts Sitting Where Only God Belongs Matthew 6:19–21 (NLT) reminds us, “Don’t store up treasures here on earth, where moths eat them and rust destroys them, and where thieves break in and steal. Store your treasures in heaven, where moths and rust cannot destroy, and thieves do not break in and steal. Wherever your…

You Don’t Need Another Sign—You Just Need to Decide
There comes a point in your walk with God where the issue isn’t clarity anymore—it’s surrender. You’ve prayed. You’ve asked. You’ve waited. And if you’re honest, God has already answered you. Maybe not in the way your flesh wanted, but in a way your spirit recognized immediately. And still… you linger. Still… you ask for…

You’re Not Meant to Live Drained When You’ve Been Made Alive in Christ Galatians 6:9 (NLT) tells us, “Don’t get weary in doing good, for at the proper time you will reap a harvest if you do not give up.” That verse sounds like strength—it calls us to keep fighting the good fight of faith.…

Too Fast Too Soon
Dear Heavenly Father, I was a little puzzled by something a person shared with me. She hasn’t been dating her boyfriend very long, only a few weeks, and already he says that he loves her. When I cautioned her about moving too fast too soon, she became defensive and said she didn’t understand my point…

Learning to Pace Yourself
A good friend of mine met a man through another mutual friend. They engaged in a little small talk, exchanged numbers, and he said that he would call her in a couple of days when he was back in town. True to his word, he phoned. They had a few really nice conversations and planned…
