Single does not mean "alone"

I've been on this earth for around 19 years now, and I have never had a boyfriend. And this is outside of the norm. In fact, it's considered abnormal, and many people respond to my little fun fact in shock.

It isn't because guys have never been interested... because believe me, they have. But it's because God has a plan, and I'm waiting for it to unfold.

I've been given this 6th sense when it comes to boys. It's God-given, no doubt. Without going into too much detail, I catch a lot of "vibes" that either give me the yay or the nay. 99.9999999999999999999999999999999999999999% of the time, it's a nay. For a couple of years, this was actually frustrating. I thought, here are all these people with experience in having a significant other, and here I am so clueless and far from ready.

"If you just did ________________, you would have a boyfriend." "If you didn't ________________, you would have a boyfriend."

So many voices have given me "advice" on "what's best" for ME. But I know Someone who has planned this out since before I was born. Someone who has an idea and is allowing me to take part in it if I'll just be patient. I know Someone who knows the best for the rest of my life and the person's life I will be spending mine with. My best option would be taking His advice.

Personally, I want my future to glorify God. I know that will happen when Jesus' love is displayed to people in everyday life through my husband and I. We will get to build each other up, serve each other, and love on everyone that exists in our lives together, for God's Kingdom.

God: My forever-number-one Future SO: My number two. Sorry not sorry but it'll stay that way until death do we part.......and then it'll stay that way some more. Forever.

This waiting period is not for nothing. God is shaping me into the wife and mother my future family can depend on. And I know my prince charming is being shaped as well.

I will continue to walk with God, allow Him to continue refining me for what's next, and know that just because I'm single, I am not alone.
