Description

So here you are. Single. Still. Again. And the last thing that you want to hear is what you did to cause it, how God still wants you to be here, or how your boo is around the corner. You want answers. Why am I still Single? What's wrong with me? Why are all my friends getting married, yet I'm only invited to the wedding? WHEN WILL IT BE MY TURN? These, amongst thousands of others are what plague your mind. NOT Another Singles Book, is just that. This hard-hitting, insightful and at times humorous book written by a self-proclaimed Reformed Serial Monogamist will have you throwing away every negative viewpoint you have heard about Singleness and focusing on fulfilling God�s purpose in it. It is a simple, yet eye-opening view of Singleness as something to get into, instead of a grave sentence to get out of. Singleness has a distinct, designed purpose crafted by the Almighty Author of Time, and this book will start (or assist you in continuing) your journey in discovering the wonderful things God has in store for this season. There is nothing wrong with you. God has not forgotten you. If we believe that God has a plan for our lives then we must believe that this plan also involves our Single season. There is no way that an Infallible, Sovereign God can orchestrate and ordain your marriage, but just happen to leave out this huge Single part, as if it is the black hole on your eternity timeline. Singleness is ordained. It is blessed and it is exactly where God wants you to be. Singleness has it season, allow it to be the sweet aroma of a lifestyle submitted to God�s will. You are complete alone. Easier said than believed and even easier understood. Your completeness must come from the only One that can offer you that. You become a walking toxin when you enter a relationship without this mindset. If you don't believe that you are Single and take the time to actually understand it, you will poison every relationship that you are exposed to. Getting to know ourselves is hard. Really understanding the good, bad and the complicated in your life is something that you can't afford not to do. If you don't seek your completeness in Christ before the relationship, you will end up draining every relationship that you get involved in. Seeking completion in a relationship, puts an unnecessary and unapproachable barrier between you and your mate. You will seek for him or her to give you something that only the One who created you can give. No mere dating relationship can withstand this pressure. Understanding your value is necessary to know your worth. Once you realize how valuable you are to God, you will stop allowing cheap representatives to waste your time. God views Singleness as a time of undistracted devotion unto the Lord; a time that the Lover of your soul can romance and woo you. This is a time that the Redeemer of our souls pursues and overtakes us with a love so pure and so sweet it compares with nothing else, because we will never experience anything else like it. This is a time that God has set apart for you to work wholeheartedly for His kingdom without the distractions of earthly responsibilities like a mate and family. If marriage is ordained for you then it will come, but only in God's timing. If you try to rush it, you will end up with heartache and headache. NOT Another Singles Book challenges you to combat the notion that something is wrong with you if you are still Single and going on 20 or 20 or 40. God has not forgotten you. You are not his car keys or his glasses, you are the precious jewel in His crown and His is enthralled with you. The Father gives good gifts to His children and He will withhold no good thing from you. If you desire marriage, yet are still Single, it's because this is good for you, even if it doesn't feel good to you.
