You Don’t Have To Like Being Single: 10 Ways To Survive Singleness


Listen Later

You don't have to like being single. Yes, even you, Christian person. It's okay to struggle with being single!
It really is. I'm giving you - reading this post - permission to go ahead and feel those feelings. And in this episode, I'm going to tell you exactly why.
On this episode of the Love + Relationships Podcast, I'm talking to a young woman who is struggling with singleness. She's just not feeling content.
How can you survive singleness in a world that seems to revolve around marriage?
How can you keep from getting discouraged when you're not in a relationship but want to be?
What do you do when you find yourself living in a season of waiting...and waiting...and waiting?
What do you do when it seems like the people who AREN'T doing it God's way are being "blessed", and you feel like you're trying to follow God's leading and you're feeling like life just isn't working out for you?
What can you do while you're waiting? Let's have this conversation, friends.
Being Single Doesn't Have To Be Time To Kill
After our chat, I'm going to talk you through some of the TOP 10 ways to use this time of singleness in your life as a time of preparation, rather than just a time you're wishing away.
Being single doesn't have to ruin your life...in fact, it shouldn't. So we're going to discuss the things my married friends WISHED they would have done during their time of singleness, and I think it's important to talk through some of this stuff.
Because it's so easy to look at what God is NOT doing, instead of what He IS doing (CLICK TO TWEET IT!).
We've got to learn to adjust our perspective on being single.
You don't have to like being single - but you do have to learn how to NOT LET SINGLENESS hold you back!! Singleness might be a struggle for you, but don't let it be a stronghold that paralyzes you from living!
We're talking through this delicate topic today, and I hope you'll stick around and join us, because you're going to love this candid conversation on today's episode of the Love + Relationships Podcast.
