I had a friend give me a book today to read a chapter in it on being single and our devotion to our God and how that changes when we get married. It has challenged me to look at my time and am I being a good steward of my singleness.
I am praying through Psalm 51. I want God to create in me a clean heart and be my deepest desire, more than all things or all people.

I'm so excited for you! I'm beginning to get the Great Romance that we were created for between God and His bride. I've been reading a fiction series, that really opened my eyes to the romance that God uses to catch our eye and take our breath away. I feel like I'm on the brink of something major and I find myself consumed with being romanced by the Living God and not really thinking about the romance between men and women (which is just a shadow of the above anyway). Bravo!
Even for those of us who are married, we must keep our eyes fixed on Jesus - for in and of themselves marriages do not satisfy. If the relationship is not founded on and solidified by a growing relationship for both parties with the Lord, then fulfillment and satisfaction will be elusive. It's taken some of us longer than others to figure that out! :) I love ya, girl.
"I must decrease; He must increase." Even the things that we desire we don't really want outside of His provision for them.
