Singleness

[Anonymous]

Hello I’m a 36 year old female and I’m struggling at being single again. I have no children but I so desperately want to be a mother with a loving, providing and faithful spouse. My previous relationships have been physically abusive. My most recent relationship ended last week. This was also abuse and he put me down to the point where my self esteem is being questioned. We only knew each other for 3 months but during that time I met his family and he took me to Europe for my birthday. I’m afraid I won’t meet anyone that will provide for me like that and also be faithful and not leave me. He left me and I pray that I stop checking my phone thinking he will call. I also have three cats and he said no one would ever take me seriously with three cats. I’m so broken. I had a very successful career which I no longer have. I’ve been unemployed for 3 months and my parents are currently providing for me which I do not want to run them dry. I feel so lost. I dream of being a mother and wife. I know once I work I’ll just go into the climbing the corporate ladder just so I can make enough to pay my bills. When in reality I want a provider who I can emotionally provide for and build a family with. I want healthy babies and I don’t want to wait any longer. I’m so scared and trying to keep hopeful. Sorry for the long rant. Any prayers are appreciated. I’ve also had very long isolated periods where I dated no one for over six months at a time. I don’t want to be isolated again. Those were very tough seasons for me. I’m praying for a miracle soon. Just to even think about being single for the holidays (which I have been every holiday) makes me so very sad. I was hopeful for this last relationship.

Dear Sister in Christ, we hear your heart's cry and we are with you in spirit, praying and believing for God's best in your life.

Firstly, we want to address the abuse you've experienced. We are so sorry that you've had to endure this, but we are glad you've been able to leave those harmful situations. The Bible tells us that God hates abuse. In Ephesians 5:28-29 (WEB) it says, "So husbands ought also to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself. For no man ever hated his own flesh; but nourishes and cherishes it, even as Christ also does the assembly." While this speaks about husbands, it's clear that God's standard for how a man should treat a woman is with love, care, and respect, not abuse.

We also want to address your desire for a spouse and children. This is a godly desire, as the Bible says in Psalm 127:3 (WEB), "Behold, children are a heritage of Yahweh. The fruit of the womb is his reward." However, we want to encourage you to trust in God's timing. In Isaiah 60:22 (WEB) it says, "The little one shall become a thousand, and the small one a strong nation. I, Yahweh, will hasten it in its time." God knows the desires of your heart, and He will fulfill them in His perfect timing.

Regarding your unemployment, we want to remind you that God is your provider. In Philippians 4:19 (WEB) it says, "My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus." Trust that God will provide for you, and He will open the right doors for you in His time.

We also want to address the fact that you didn't mention Jesus Christ in your request. It's important to remember that Jesus is our mediator, and it's through Him that we have access to God. In John 14:6 (WEB) Jesus says, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me." We encourage you to put your trust and faith in Jesus Christ.

Let us pray for you:

Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You today to lift up our sister. Lord, she desires to be a wife and mother, and we ask that in Your perfect timing, You would bring a godly husband into her life. A man who will love, respect, and cherish her, as Christ loves the church. Lord, we also ask that You would heal her heart from the pain of past abuse. Fill her with Your love and peace. Lord, we ask that You would provide for her financially, that You would open the right doors for her. And Lord, we ask that she would put her trust and faith in You, and in Your son Jesus Christ. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Be strong and courageous. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight (Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB).

We're here with you, sister, feeling your longing for a loving, faithful partner and the family you dream of. We're sorry for the pain you've been through, but remember, God is always with you, and He's got a plan for your future.

We know it's hard, especially with the holidays approaching, but try to focus on the present and the love that's already in your life - your family, friends, and your furry companions. God sees your faithfulness and your desire for a family, and He's working on your behalf.

Let's trust in God's timing. In His perfect plan, He'll bring the right person into your life, someone who will love and cherish you, just as you deserve. Until then, keep your heart open to God's love and grace. He's got you, and He's working all things together for your good.

Let's also pray for your job situation. Trust that God is your provider, and He'll open the right doors for you. Keep seeking, and He'll make a way.

And hey, it's okay to have off days. It's okay to feel sad and scared. Just keep taking it one day at a time, and remember, you're not alone. We're praying for you, and so is God.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

I feel your pain,.I haven't been on a date in 6 years..however my day to day life is focused on God..but it would be great to meet someone..they have Christian cruises for single people..once you get on your feet financially..try it..I am planning to go. Don't give up because that's what Satan wants.God bless you in the name of Jesus to meet your Godly husband soon..I pray for you. Believe but also make effort to meet people. Praying for your healing from the past relationship and financial freedom which God provides to his people through the law of tithing. He hasn't let me down..always an awesome provider and protector. God bless you in Jesus name. Amen. Praying your recovery from abusive past relationship. And to never go back..money isn't everything..you deserve a man with character and loyalty. Amen.
