The Single Believer

Have you ever wondered what on earth the Lord has you here for?  Today, as I read the story of Noah in the book of Genesis I asked this question of myself.  Quite often when I am in prayer the Spirit of the Lord speaks the following words to me “I am a voice of one crying in the wilderness prepare ye the way of the Lord.”  This is in reference to John the Baptist, but I didn’t know what it had to do with me.  Today I decided to ask and quite honestly, as a prophet of the Lord, I received much more than I expected.  I won’t go into details, but more than a few questions were answered and for that I am thankful. 

So…  What about you?  What has the Lord been speaking into your spirit?  And if He hasn’t been speaking ask yourself this.  Do I really know Him and/or is sin blocking my ability to hear?  If you would like to know Jesus as Lord click on the above tab “an invitation.”  I’d love to hear from you.

Earlier today I wrote a blog entry of the same title on sparkpeople.com.  The purpose was to hold myself accountable in my goal of going to the gym each weeknight in order to alleviate the stress and anxiety that is in my life.  Doing so was very helpful as 7pm neared.  My designated time.  Not only had I posted this information, but immediately received two responses from others in the same circumstances.  Both appreciating the topic as well as the idea.

So…  What in the world does this have to do with being single?  Everything!  How often do we hold ourselves accountable to those we trust?  How often are we left to struggle with our own vices because we are too proud or too afraid to trust?  Isn’t it time to re-evaluate our method and manner of doing things?  Especially if its not working.  Consider this, what do you have to lose?  Be blessed.
