I should have been married thirty -- four years ago ! I know how to have a great marriage and I know how to have a crummy, lousy, less -- then -- mediocre single life ! I don't have any idea how to have a great single life ! God is wonderful, but He's a man, and only a flesh -- and -- blood woman can love me the way I want to be loved ! Like the song says "Sometimes I get a little bit nervous that the best of all the years have gone by !" .

Hey sweet girl, God is very real and sees you. You are more than enough- you don’t have to be anything else but yourself because He has made you purposely. I feel like your heart is searching and wanting to see if He is real, and He is. I just feel His love for you. Don’t give up- Jesus truly is in love with you 💕

@Arcanon105 жыл бұрын
Singles often hear the assertion that if they simply focus on their relationship with God and grow in righteousness, a spouse will suddenly appear. I have heard this on more than one occasion and it always rings hollow. This is not because growing in grace and truth is unsound advice, but rather because it is unscriptural to assert that realizing our earthly desires necessarily hinges on spiritual maturity. The purpose of spiritual growth is to become more like Christ and bring gory to God, not to get what we want on earth. Often, people will point to Christ's words in Matthew 6 as evidence that if a person seeks the kingdom of heaven and God's righteousness, all things will be "added to them." But was Christ truly talking about earthly blessings? Many faithful Christians starve to death, many are murdered for their faith, and many will live earthly lives that are utterly lacking in certain pleasures, enjoyments, and blessings that are showered upon others who seem to be living more unfaithful lives. Does this mean that God is unfaithful? Was Christ being misleading? Not at all! Rather, it demonstrates that the ultimate fulfillment of God's promises are not found on earth, but rather in heaven. Spiritual growth and maturity do not guarantee earthly happiness. They do, however, store up a treasure of eternal joy and union with Christ in heaven. 1st John 2:25 says, "this is the promise which He Himself made to us: eternal life." Until we fully realize this promise in His presence, we must learn to follow Christ's example and pray "not my will, but Yours be done," no matter how frustrating, painful, or confusing God's will appears to be at the time. And for anyone dealing with true prolonged singleness (30+) things get frustrating, confusing, and painful in spades.

Tell me about it, I'm a dude tho. I'm not exactly the kind of guy that most girls would be attracted to. I've been trying to look for "The One", but still no luck yet. I'm seeing everyone else being blessed with relationships. It can be so difficult, especially when you have a grandmother constantly asking if you found a gf yet. I've always dreamed of finding my future wife and having my family. I've had visions of what she would look like. Even visions of my future son. The visions aren't clear enough to make out exactly how she looks in full detail. All I know is that she is very graceful & God fearing woman. I'm just so eager to find her. I'm so tired of being alone. I just want to find my partner in life.

I was settled and prepared to be alone for the remainder of my life. But in my solitude, I drew near to God. Now, I'm currently journeying the love story God wrote for me. He has already shown me who my future husband is; he's an answer to so many of my prayers. And much like these two, he encompasses some of the more silly/insignificant details of my perfect person. I think where he says "don't idolize your girlfriend/ boyfriend, future wife/husband" is very important. God has to be at the center of the Union or it will fail. May the Lord bless you!

Perhaps this can be true, but I rarely see evidence of it. It is indeed true that we are to love the Lord with all our heart, all our soul, all our mind, and all our strength. This means that if anything is more important to us than God, it has become an idol in our lives. That being said, spiritual maturity does not guarantee a spouse. Are we supposed to believe that all these young Christians who get married in their early and mid 20's after "enduring" a year or two of "prolonged singleness" have learned this spiritual lesson and have their spiritual priorities strait with regards to "idolizing" marriage? Hardly; not even remotely true. Quite the opposite seems more prevalent, in fact, in that carnally-minded, sexually active, and spiritually immature Christians are granted spouses with little spiritual "effort" while far more spiritually mature Christians can go years upon years without being given a spouse despite desiring and praying for one. I see little Scriptural evidence that growing in grace and truth and in the likeness of Christ will suddenly reward you with a spouse. Firstly because growing to be more and more like Christ is meant to bring glory to God and is not a means to an end, a quest for a reward, or a trade-off for something we desire. And secondly, as stated above, because I see little evidence of a guaranteed link between spiritual maturity and earthly blessings. All the promises and blessings of God will be realized fully in His presence in heaven, not on earth. And until that day, the battle goes on, as ever it does.

@@Arcanon10 I must say I agree with you on a few points. I just turned 35 last month and have been single my entire life! In my 20s I wasn't really thinking of marriage, just going through life, finishing college, working, trying to figure out who I was. Late 20s-wee 30s quite a few a of my girlfriends were getting married, some starting families, and I guess it didn't really bother me until my (only, 3 yrs younger) sister got married, who, like several of my friends, didn't even have a prolonged season of singleness whilst I'd never even been on a date. Somewhere in 2017 as a guy from work and I started chatting, the Lord showed me that I'd been idolizing marriage, and I felt like my punishment was an extended, extra long season of being single. 🤦♀️I can literally count on 1 hand how many guys have even talked to me, 3, two-three yrs apart, for like the last 10 years.🤷♀️ It's strange, though. While I sit here wondering "what's the deal?", I have been on the most real learning curve where the Lord's shown me He's not afraid of my "womb timeclock" and that marriage cannot be the end-all, be-all. The Lord's been protecting me from what I cannot see. (This culture is ridiculously sex-crazed.) Even still, it's not preached in the church as much that singleness is just as much a gift as marriage, and thus, I've been one of those singles who feels alienated in the church because EVERYTHING is meant for couples, moms groups or young families and singles are typically excluded. Even still, being single isn't a disease, and we have our own place to do the work of the Lord. The desire to be married hasn't gone away, and I've stopped idolizing it. It's bound to not work if the Lord's not in it, and it's such a HUGE commitment I don't want to get wrong. I've come to say and really believe that I'd rather be single and honoring the Lord than be married for the sake of being married to someone who isn't my God-ordained & blessed husband. I won't settle. I'm super picky too, so I guess it's good there's only been 3 who didn't make the cut! #notsettling #keepthefaith I just believe God sees and He knows. And like Sutton, it's work, church, gym or grocery store. #butGod ☺blessings to you!

And yes, He is enough and has always been enough for us, and there isn't any evidence that climbing a spiritual mountain to be closer to the Lord guarantees a spouse. It does however change us into the person God desires us to be and we're better equipped to do His will. Still a tough road, but He *is* the goal, the end-all, be-all...not a marriage. I've had to learn that.
@Arcanon105 жыл бұрын
@@mariposarn8038 Hey there :) I find something you said very interesting regarding how you felt that your season of prolonged singleness was a God-ordained punishment for idolizing marriage. Is that something you still feel to be true? As I read, I felt as though you have come to see your prolonged singleness less as a punishment and more as God's loving guidance in your life. And yes, I agree wholeheartedly with your assertion that marriage is far too serious and important and joyful a thing to be undertaken with anything less than completely satisfied, joyfully eager, and God-blessed commitment.

Wow, this similarities between this video and my own life is crazy. 🤔 Nate and Sutton, this video was very encouraging to me. Thank you. I had to pause the video a few times because I couldn't stop breaking down. My story seems very similar to Nates. From the the same desires in a spouse to the circumstances, everything is the same. I too have been worried for a very long time about not finding someone to marry. I'm super picky and don't want to compromise in what I want. Like Nate, it has even become so frustrating to me that I've had nights when I've cried. This past summer, I had a breaking point. One night when I was sitting in my living room, my worry came to a point where I completely broke down and didn't know what to do and wonderd what I was doing wrong. I then realized then that I couldn't do anything and had to give the situation to God. I prayed that night and asked God to help. I also realized that I needed to draw closer to him and that I also had some personal issues I needed to work on. The morning after I prayed, I was sitting and eating lunch on my college campus and a group of people just randomly came up to me and they asked if they could pray for me. I was stunned. Then, later on in the week, a friend of mine who is training to be a pastor texted me and told me that he felt God tell him that I needed to be mentored. So, over the summer we had meetings and I talked about my worries. We also had a small Bible study where I could talk with other men of God. I soon realized I was not alone in my struggle and that God was with me every step of the way. In addition to this, I also realized that I was making an idol of a relationship like Nate and Sutton mentioned. I realized that it's not healthy to do that no matter how bad I want to find someone to spend the rest of my life with. Anyways, after having all of these revelations, I realized that I was not prepared to meet the one yet. How can I ask for such a wonderful goodly woman if I'm not the best version of myself? I know I can't be perfect and that no one is, but I really did need to work on some stuff about myself. Anyway, I'm doing much better mentally now and am trying to prepare myself for hopefully meeting someone one day. I don't know if God has marriage in store for me, but I really really hope he does. In the meantime, I'm trying to grow in God and serve at my local church more, as well as improving myself all together. And, hopefully, in the end God can write a love story for me as well. And if anyone is worried about the same thing, don't give up, there is hope.

Sutton’s first sentences hit so close to home for me. I never thought I would find someone because I was the undesirable one, in my mind. I went through many changes in a year, including double jaw surgery as well, which is where I first found Nathanael’s channel. And I would cry also, asking Jesus how I would ever get married. Well my husband is the most handsome man I have ever laid eyes on. I knew him growing up, he was actually my best friend’s waaaay older brother. Nine years to be exact. And he was mine. I still am not worthy, but Jesus picked him to be my husband before I was born. I thank Jesus for your guy’s obedience and I really needed this video tonight. Thank you

As a single, I have had the time to reflect heal, grow, learn who I am, and be patient for God's timing. In the past, when I did in the what I thought would be good for me, it was what I describe as "crash and burn" (it went so badly & with such consequence). When I find myself feeling impatient in waiting, praying for God to bring a husband to serve alongside, I also redirect myself to what God needs me to do in the present. At times, I also come back to your videos of you both met. Your marriage is an encouragement of how God beautifully blesses marriage when He brings them together. Thank you for being open, sharing, and following God's direction. Be blessed

You guys are way younger than me! Beautiful love story. Giving it all to God is the only way. I got married at 33 in 2015. My husband and I were both virgins until our wedding night. I spent my 20's doing mission work, and really hoping I'd meet a godly man (but didn't), and then I met my husband (a godly man!) at a birthday party thrown by a woman I was leading a Bible study with. God is the one who guides all of our stories.

I am God's biggest fan. I honor him and have faith in him no matter what. I think I always have. I remember being like 6 or 7 years old standing on the side of my house praying to God that I wouldn't get in trouble from my parents for doing something wrong. I'm 50 now. I am alone. I've been alone for a couple years. Like Sutton, I wonder how I'm going to meet someone when all I do is go to work 6 days a week. I don't drive so I don't go anywhere. I watched this video and then prayed to God and put it in his hands. I've always put my life, journey, and daily things in God's hands. Yes I plan my day but if it goes differently then I planned then thats God writing my story. This video really helped me straighten out things that were basically jumbled in my head. Thank you both and I wish you so much happiness and love in your future!! God bless.

I have health problems now and only now did God slow me down enough to listen to him. He was shouting at me since I started Dating. I never even had a girfriend until I was in College.So what you both had to say really resonates.I know that God knows way better than me what is best for me. Now and forever!
