I was reading a pretty popular magazine while working out on the treadmill ( Needed that to keep going for an hour lol) and i came across an article talking about why according the them 50% of young Christians Black women in the United State of America are still single. I'll try in my best ability to give their reasons and tell if i agree or not with them.
1. The women look for men in Churches.
The magazine states that most of those single young ladies look for men in black churches which is wrong. Well i agree with them on that. I've discussed with some single ladies before and they think that they'll find a godly man in church. They think since he comes to church he might be good for her. Hellooo!! Have you ever heard of people wearing masks to church? Someone can act more godly than the Pastor and be so not what people think he is. Where i come from even witches and wizards come to church every single day if they can, some people will be so active in their church but yet at home will be so wicked you'll look at them twice and be shocked. Plus Ladies 85% of us say they are "Christians" in the US compared to some 40% males and in total 75% in the US claimed to be " Christians". Let's leave that for another day shall we?
2.Young Women wants a wealthy and successful man
That's true, who wouldn't? But listen a black man in his early 20's is still trying to make it through College or make something out of his life and trust me if he is in the world (and most of them are), He is not ready to settle down. Don't be in your 20's and start thinking marriage come on.... I've sat with some Eagles lately, by Eagles i mean people who have been true Christians in a long while and married for a long time and some words from my Pastors and oh boy! I'm not in the hurry to get married. Marriage is a Magnifier like my Pastor will say. You think he is cute when he snores? Wait until you say "I do" and hear him snore every single day for the rest of your life. I don't think it's cute anymore huh? When you had a long day and try to sleep and hear it all night long. And Ladies, Behind every successful man, there is a strong woman. If you are not successful yourself, not strong on your own to take care of yourself financially, emotionally, physically, etc,... don't go out there looking for a man to do that for you. The truth is you won't find him. You need to be complete and happy alone before thinking of adding someone else to the picture. If you want to be complete go to God, He will be your strength, your guide, your love, etc.... and trust me He will be faithful if your faithful to Him and even in our messed up life He will still be faithful because He loves us that much.
3. Women and their Biological clock.
I used to think that i have a biological clock but then i let God come in my life and do some main construction work. If you are on my Facebook you'll think, man she got it going on! Let me tell you that life is not a bed of roses especially if you want to be a true Christian, God will mess up your life. The devil will throw in his obstacles but if you still faithful to God in the middle of your storm and keep on going you'll soar on wings like an Eagle. There is no biological clock, it's in our mind. Stop looking for your husband in every man around you. You'll get hurt. I've learned the hard way. When you are in God, trust me you won't even have the time to think about it but you'll have a blessing of men around you because men will start seeing the Glory of God through you. You don't have to expose any part of your body, which is the Temple of the Holy Spirit, to get a man. That Glory of God will shine upon your life and you will rise and shine and you won't even understand where they are all coming from and why they are coming after you but let me tell you it's because they have seen the Glory of God in you. But then again ladies, be careful because even Satan can see that light upon your life and will try to come in and destroy you.
To close this post i'll say when it comes to relationships, first you need to stop looking because when that right man comes in everything will fall into places without too much effort. I'm not saying it will be easy though but you'll know.Secondly don't be cheap, what i mean by that is don't fall too easily. Don't let the man have his way. Put him to test like a female Eagle does it. By that i don't mean either shoo-sh him away no, but see how far he will go for you. Third, if you want a godly man for your godly self he has to abide by the book of life, The Bible. Don't let him tell you no this is for the old days and things have changed. We as human changed toward God by doing what we please us but God never changed. The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is still the same. Ladies! Be still and let God perform His works in your life. Let His will be done in our life as it is in Heaven. Father may your will be done now and Forever!
Happy New Year 2020
