We are back with another installment of "Ask the God Pod" where we dive into a vulnerable question from Amy, a 38-year-old woman grappling with the fear that she may never find her life partner.

She asks, "How do I ask God to help me find my husband when I'm so afraid it will never happen?"

We explore the emotional complexities and the spiritual journey of desiring a partner while battling fears of lifelong 'singleness', emphasizing the importance of honesty in prayer, encouraging you to approach God with your deepest desires and fears.

Leanne shares her own story and experiences dealing with the uncertainty of dating (and the fears that she wouldn't ever meet her person), sharing how a period of "Dating Jesus" was transformative, helping her connect with the version of herself that felt worthy of receiving unconditional love. This phase of deepening her relationship with God provided the foundation for a future relationship built on faith and self-worth, and she believes is what prepared her to meet her now-husband.

Additionally, we revisit a previous episode, "How God Helped Me Heal My Fears About Being Alone the Rest of My Life," (linked below) where we discussed the gradual shift in self-belief and integrating faith with science for emotional healing.

Amy’s question and the discussion it opened offers hope and guidance for anyone navigating the often challenging path of waiting for a life partner, and reminds us of the power of growth, faith, and the transformative power of God’s love....even in the waiting.
