What makes you think that just because I am an Attractive woman of Godly intelligence That I'm incomplete without a mate?
Who told you that Without a man Something's missing From my life? And if so, What would that be?
Love? I love myself And more importantly. I love the Lord He told me that when I delight in Him, He will give me the desires of my heart .
Security? I have everything I need according to His riches in glory.
Intimacy? Now, how's a man going to get to know me When he doesn't even know who he is in the Lord? See my Father told me I'm above a ruby's worth And a gem (which I am) does not seek It (I am) is sought.
I'm single and that's all right with me.
See, it's not that I oppose relationships It's that I detest co-dependency As a woman I know it is not my role To chase after any man.
Esther 2:14 reads That I am to wait on my king and when he's delighted in me. He will call me by my name.
My Lord does not intend for me to be needy or desperate. I am to be Cherished, Relished, Valued, and Honored, It's not my job to convince him Or Convict him of that, My mate will already know it And consistently show it And he will stay on his knees daily Not just to adore me But to praise the Lord for The virtuous woman he has found So, when you see me by myself I'm not alone I know what I have coming to me.(^_^)
I agree with all of them, you are still young to worry too much about why you are not a wife yet nor a mother.
There is a right and perfect time for everything. In GOD's perfect time for you, it will happen. Just keep praying, live your faith, and live your life to the fullest.
My first relationship was at 27, 10 years after, I am still single(^_^)
Just have faith in this:
Delight yourself in the LORD, and He shall give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the LORD, trust also in Him, and He shall bring it to pass. ~ Psalm 37:4,5
Just like NKatty, way before, I wanted to gain more pounds since I think I am too skinny. But to some, I can be slim or sexy. The bottom line is, beauty is in the eye of the beholder depending on how we view beauty and what we see as a beauty.
It is the same way in being called fat. Maybe that is why there came different terms, bbw, voluptuous, etc. depending on how you see it.
But the most important thing is that you are comfortable with yourself, you love yourself no matter how much you weigh. You do know that God loves you. And another person accepts you, loves you even if you became underweight or overweight.(^_^)
