Sometimes it takes a while before God gives you a spouse because he is still working on them or you or both. My wife is from Africa and came here for college. Someone prophesied that her husband would be a white man even though she was still dating someone in Africa at the time. When she was prophesied over, I was not even a Christian yet. I came to Christ around the time that we met, and we were friends for a long time before we dated.
I think part of the problem with finding mature Christians is that it is very hard to admit to ourselves our own darkness, even if the Holy Spirit is showing us our darkness in a very clear way, or sending people or situations to tell us our darkness. We can’t give what we don’t have. But we also can’t surrender what we won’t give up.
Praying for you today that God comforts you and brings you amazing Christian friends. I would encourage you to join a youth group through your church 🙏🤍
@@169provebs I appreciate the thought, but I'm 52. I even aged out of our singles group that goes from 30-50. All the women my age in my church are already married. My son's mother abandoned us when he was only a year old, turning me into a single parent. He's now a grown adult and on his own. It's been 15 years since I've had anything from anyone, including friendship. I haven't even gotten a hug from someone other than my mother in that entire time, which is painful because I'm very touchy/feely by nature. Physical affection is one of my primary love languages. I'd be giddy to be 'friend zoned' by women, if it was true friendship. At least then, I'd have someone I could get a hug from and have a shoulder to cry on.
@@Zeoran very sorry to hear that, I would encourage you to start a group at your church for your age group. If the community isn't there, we have to step into creating that community. That's what I'm doing at my local church, praying God gives you wisdom and strength.
@@169provebs God will need to give me a personality change as well since I'm an HSP & extreme introvert. Even so, you'd think that I could have at least managed to find a single friend, least of all best friend, within 15 years. At this point, I'd be willing to pay good money just to have a lap I could lay my head on & cry. (I hate crying alone, it just makes me MORE depressed)

Beautifully said Nick, thank you for sharing your story. Praying God richly blesses your marriage 🙏

Thanks for sharing, prayer changes things! Pray for your future spouse to be surrendered to Christ 🙏
Keep up the great work and positive attitude
THANKS for watching Kevin, I appreciate the encouragement!
Great video Ashley
THANK YOU!!
I'm at 15 years with no friends,no support base. I have no idea what God's plan is, it makes no sense to me. Don't even have a shoulder to cry on.
Would you like to be friends with me ?
