Wating For That Special Someone

There are times in my life where I feel like I'm worthless and nobody will ever want to love me exactly for who I really am. I often think that I will never have a boyfriend or be loved for the complete me. For me, this emptiness normally comes after watching a romantic movie or seeing a friend get a boyfriend, while I am left alone. It hurts deep inside to see everyone else get someone special in their life and have that one special guy, while I'm left all alone. How I wonder if the day will ever come for my turn?

I often wonder, why- why does it really matter? Why do I determine my happiness on if I have a boyfriend or not? Having someone love me doesn't determine who I am and it shouldn't control my joy. Sometimes I feel like I am chasing after love instead of letting love come to me since I just want to be loved so bad. So today, I'm asking for God to take control of my life and allow me to stop chasing after love. I trust in God to do what is best with my life, and I have to be patient in His plans.

 God has a special plan for all of us and whether you are single, dating, or married, God has a special plan for why you are in that stage of your life. When we go through each season of our life we can either regret the past, get worried about the future or enjoy the present and actually do something to impact our future. I'd much rather enjoy the present and fulfill God's plan for me, rather than waiting for something to happen in the future.

Being accepted by others does NOT determine who we are as people. We are all loved by God and no matter what anyone says to you, You are special and unique. When you feel like the whole world rejects you and casts you aside there is still one person who is standing by your side rooting you on. And that person is God. Sometimes when we are single or alone in life that is God reassuring us that we should be getting closer to Him and strengthening our relationship with God before we become in a relationship with someone else.

I want to be true to my future husband and I want to wait for God to be the one to bring the right guy along. I don't want to just date anyone. I want to only date a guy that I truly think I would be interested in marrying. (hopefully I can do a post soon about what I look for in my future husband) But until that day comes when I meet that one special guy, I will keep my faith in God and know that what He is doing is for the best. And I am praying that if my husband is out there that He will be growing in his relationship with God so that we will have a strong Christian family when we meet. : )

Well, I hope you enjoyed the post! Thanks so much for coming by and reading!

  3. When I start thinking about it, I don't know how any guy could ever love me. I'm not pretty enough and I'm so weird. And I just wish. . . . But anyway. I'll be praying for you, Britt!

  5. This is such a good post. I know exactly what you are talking about and have felt this way sooo many times. I think what you said about being single sometimes being a sign that we should be getting closer to God is absolutely true. I've decided that instead of being sad because I'm alone, I should be using this season of my life to be the best ME possible. I don't have to focus on anyone else, or making anyone else happy! It's just me. And I feel like my relationship with God has grown SO much since I realized this. I am so much more content now than I've ever been! Again, great post!!
