Single and Satisfied? If you would have asked me this question 10 years ago I would have said NO! Today I am single and satisfied because of Christ and spiritual/physical growth. I use to think being single was lame and lonely but now I see benefits of being single. But wait, there are also challenges singles have to face that are hard on a sista especially a Christian Sista. Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. (2 Corinthians 5:17 KJV). Reverend Tony Evans pastor of well known Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship Church wrote an article titled “Single and Satisfied”. In this article Pastor Evans says, the Bible assumes that if you are single, you ought to be a virgin, wither physically or by virtue of your relationship with Jesus Christ. Obviously, the world has a different perspective on sexuality among singles. In fact, the stereotypical “swinging single” epitomizes sexual freedom without accountability. You can be with whomever you choose (in fact, the more “whomevers” you choose, the better) as often as you want to be with them. After all, you’re not married. And it’s your body. Even Christian singles often buy into this mixed-up mentality. “Don’t tell me what to do with my body!” they cry. Yet, the Bible is very clear about what you should (and shouldn’t) do with your body. Flee immorality. That’s what it says in I Corinthians 6:18. Goodgame empire cheats for rubies no download. “Flee” does not mean “hang around and see how close you can get to the edge of the pit without falling in.” Too many well-meaning singles skate on thin ice hoping it won’t crack. Of course, it invariably does. In case any doubt remains, to “flee” means to run quickly and deliberately in the opposite direction. As I read this article it ministered to me a single woman that I’m not facing this challenge alone. 1 Corinthians 6:19 says Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? This scripture let me know that I have the Holy Spirit within me fight this battle or temptation that is before me. Pastor Evans went on to say that he is not saying that sexual desire is inappropriate. You should not be praying that God would remove your sexual drive. Instead, pray that He will enable you to control that energy until the time is right to unleash it. There are good reactions—theological, ethical, and medical – for remaining sexually pure. But the truth is, it isn’t easy. The world places a high value on conformity, and those who don’t measure up to the image of the “liberated single” experience pressure.

I am a big Jimmy Kimmel buff and I try to watch his show every night because I think he’s hilarious. The other day I had the pleasure of hearing Meagan Goods real life story of celibacy with her now husband Devon Franklin. Mount abu touring officers hostel. It was confirmation that with faith and obedience to Christ all things are possible. Meagan Good reported that with faith and belief she and husband Devon remained celibate until their wedding day which was 1 whole year.
