1. Let Your Desires Lead You Closer to God

It’s okay to want love, marriage, and companionship. That desire isn’t something to be ashamed of—it’s actually a reminder that your heart was made for deep connection. Let it lead you back to the One who knows you best. The more you draw near to God, the more you’ll find peace, even when your heart aches a little.

“You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.” — Psalm 16:11

2. God Is Using This Season to Grow You

Singleness isn't a pause on life—it’s a sacred space where God is shaping you, stretching you, and making you more like Him. The waiting, the unknowns, the prayers that seem unanswered—He’s using it all to build something beautiful inside of you.

“Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.” — James 1:2–3

3. You Can’t Miss What God Has for You

If your heart is truly seeking Him, take a deep breath—you’re not going to miss out. God’s plans don’t rely on you being perfect or figuring it all out. His timing, His ways, His path for you—they’re steady, even when your emotions aren’t. Keep walking with Him. He’s not going to let you fall off track.

“The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever.” — Psalm 138:8

4. Don’t Walk Through This Alone

You need people. The kind who will pray for you, challenge you, laugh with you, and remind you that you're not forgotten. Christian community isn’t just a nice extra—it’s a lifeline. Let trusted people into your life so you can grow together and support each other, especially in the hard moments.

“Let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds… encouraging one another.” — Hebrews 10:24–25

Why Relationships Really Matter

At the core, the purpose of relationships isn’t just about feeling happy—it’s about becoming holy. God uses friendships, dating, and marriage to shape our character, teach us humility, and reflect His love. When we enter relationships with a heart to serve rather than to be served, that’s when we begin to love like Christ. Always ask God to give you a heart that mirrors His—one that’s willing to serve, forgive, and grow.

“Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.” — Philippians 2:3–4
