Current Feature Article - Christian Singles Today
I just read the Current Feature Article from Christian Singles Today and, like the author, talking about these issues evoked mixed emotions in me.
On the one hand there are instances where the church ignores singles. I wrote about this for our life group recently when I was trying to summarize the vision of 30 something for the group. (The official vision can be found here).
On the other hand I think that sometimes we tend to put ourselves into smaller and smaller boxes so that our negative feelings can find some justification. After all God created us all differently and if we add enough qualifiers we can find a point of difference with anyone. It’s a balancing act: not too much of one or the other.
God has been challenging me lately to give it all to Him and let things come as they may (as you may have gathered from my previous blog post). I’m trusting Him to give of His abundant store of comfort and grace with impeccable timing, both directly and through others, so that I can concentrate on doing the work that he has called me to do despite those periods of intense lonliness and isolation.
