A Valentines Day Letter to all the Single Ladies

Tomorrow is Valentines Day. Yes, it's the day of love, but it's also the day a lot of you are reminded of how unloved you feel and soak in your aloneness. It breaks my heart to think some of y'all are not satisfied because you don't know how loved you truly are. Girls, there is One who loves you more than any man on this earth ever could. He is the Creator of everything. He is also the One who gave up His life so that you would have eternal life. Girls, He is the definition of love. Don't think you need an earthly man's love when you have God's love. Why don't we focus on Him tomorrow? I pray that you can relate to these words:

If God hadn’t been there for me, I never would have made it. The minute I said, “I’m slipping, I’m falling,” Your love, God, took hold and held me fast. When I was upset and beside myself, You calmed me down and cheered me up. (Psalm 94:16-19 MSG)

 Girls, don't lose heart. Remember, you are loved more than you know.

When we have a calling

  With every decision we make, we need to figure out which way God is calling us to go. There are confusing callings, and some very easy ones. Some big ones, and small ones. In every one of them God is present.  He's there guiding us. Let's listen to Him.

 "I’ll be a personal guide to them, directing them through unknown country. I’ll be right there to show them what roads to take, make sure they don’t fall into the ditch. These are the things I’ll be doing for them— sticking with them, not leaving them for a minute.” (Isaiah 42:16 MSG)
