Who needs a man when I've got God.

Who on God's green earth would have thought i would come to such a conclusion? Hellooooo, if you dont know me, i'm a bit on the boy crazy side. But, after hearing Pastor Jeff's sermon on singlehood it really struck me. My lightbulb in my head lit up. At first, when he says somewhere along the line of enjoy your singlehood and be in a relationship with God before you get in a relationship with someone else i was skeptical. No body wants to be single for goodness sakes. Its a crappy feeling. This what gets me the most, when couples go to an amusement park (ie. disneyland) and they hold hands take couple pics, and give each other kisses here and there...i get so jealous. Eff dude, i just want to kick them and tell them to go somewhere else. Like awayyyy from my view. I mean i guess it doesnt suck all the time, but im pretty sure people want someone to hang out with on another level, hold hands with, kiss (that part is optional) etc. But as i continually thought about the singlehood passage, it made me realize that my relationship with God has to be good first before anything else. And with that being said, i started to long for that intimate relationship with Him. Im not so sad that im not in a relationship anymore, i feel quite alright to be honest. So yes, Ashley Chin does not need a man as of now because an intimate relationship with God is much more important than any worthless relationship. I will find happiness in God instead of seeking happiness thru a man-made relationship. (i'm not bashing those already in a relationship with a guy/girl, honestly, im quite happy for you). I will wait for the God-made relationship. I have no doubt God will provide only the best for me. I will continually seek him and when the time is right, then surely he will let me go. The longing of a bf that ive been feeling for so long isnt really there anymore. I long for a relationship with God more than anything else right now. I think i'll make a "future husband list". And God and I will discuss this list, and in the mean time, we should all pray for our future loves.
