So what’s my story? How come I never had a boyfriend? How come I never been on a date? I’ve been told that I am too picky, too uptight, that God has probably brought Him already and I rejected him, that I’m letting too many guys down, etc. If I was to listen to what everyone had said, I would have been in wrong relationships, hurting these guys, getting hurt, but most importantly, walking out of my destiny. Don’t get me wrong. I never had a bunch of guys knocking down my front door but I did have guys approach. Here’s the story: In my late teens, early 20s, I…

Your season of singleness is a special season to be in. There are so many things that you can do and achieve.
