PERSONAL: DEAR GOD

I found this in one of my draft and decided to put it up. I think i wrote this a few years ago.


Dear God,

Sometimes I feel lonely. I feel like everyone I know has found a wife and I desperately long to have one of my own. You declared in Genesis that it is not good for man to be alone (Genesis 2:18).  That is why you made a helper for Adam. God, I long for the affection of a spouse. I long for an intimacy  I long for that sexual, physical, emotional, and intellectual connection that can be had with a woman.  I pray that You lead me to a woman that will love me for me, God  

You understand my desires of the flesh.  Being single is tough,  I don’t want to give away such a personal part of me to some woman that I won’t spend my life with.   I don’t want to settle for someone who You don’t want me with.  I want a physical connection so bad!  I want to hold hands, kiss and  have sex.  I want hour long conversations at night!  But, I don’t want to settle just to have these things. God,  please hear my prayer to You!   Give me strength for today as I continue searching for a spouse.  


Being single is a gift.  There is nothing wrong with being single, but I still long for a partner in this life.  God, while I am waiting, give me strength to endure each day.  I will keep hoping and dreaming.  I can imagine what our first kiss will feel like!  I can imagine how wonderful holding hands will be!  I can imagine how emotionally connected we will be through long conversations!  I can imagine how attractive they will be and outshine all of the rest around me!  God, I absolutely love You and I want to show that love to a mate!  Guide me to someone who will be good for me.  I love You!
