I'm Cathy and I'm new here...I'm posting this from work. I have developed a personal relationship with Jesus over the past few years, but sometimes I wonder why I can't find someone to love me...and why I am 32 years old and still alone. I want a baby so desperately and watching people with their babies hurts so badly. I pray everyday for a family of my own. Anyway I love the forum.
I remember the feelings that you have expressed. I was 29 when I finally met my husband. I used to complain all of the time to my Mom about this same subject.
So, I will tell you what she told me. God must have somebody very special picked out for you to make you wait such a long time. You have to wait on His timing.
I know this is hard to hear, but it turned out to be true. God blessed me with the most wonderful man. Neither one of us were practicing, true Christians when we met or married.
So, hang in there girlie, I know if you have a personal relationship with HIM you can do it!
Thank you so much for your responses..I have felt this way for a while now...and my mom tells me the same thing..I have been involved in a group at my church called Alpha and Last year as the group was coming to an end. We were doing something called "Words of Knowledge." Which is where someone will get a feeling or feel the need to say something to someone else in the room. My Choir director's wife started talking and after a few minutes I started to cry. I realized that this was Jesus talking thru her and he was talking straight to me. She said that he was telling her that he wanted to be her(meaning the person she was talking to)"Knight In Shining Armour" and to stop worrying, that the time would come. To focus on different things like my career and my relationship with HIM. I knew he was talking to me and she and my mom realized it too. I must have cried that night for hours...we just sat there and cried...Ok I have rambled on enough..Just thought I had to share that amazing story with you guys.
Welcome....I'm glad you found this site and hope you enjoy the future friendships you will find here. I too felt the same way you do.....I finally married my friend from college in 2001 after coming to the Lord. I remember praying to the Lord in England on New Years eve ...to find a relationship in Him and maybe in the future find a Godly man........went home the next day, accepted Christ the end of January, and fell inlove with my friend who gave me a Bible......He's now my darling Hubby. Everyone used to say that we would be married, but we looked at each other in pure embarassment denying it....as we were only friends. A year later we were married. Things come in time........what I notice is that theres an order to everything and God must always come first, even in a marriage. He works on us before relationships so that we don't take him for granted and make our boyfriends/spouses the center of our life instead of Him. So be patient.....(I know thats an understatment as you've been trying for so long) The gift From God is much nicer than any gift you could give yourself!!
Just know that your loved by your cysters and most importantly by God....we're here for you if you need us and we'll be lifting you up in prayer
