I am a member of the oh so popular Facebook. Not only am I a member but I've also joined some groups on this friend networking establishment. I joined a couple for sentimental reasons and I joined some because I thought they were lame and wanted to let them know...subtly. One of these groups that I joined is called 'Christian boys are hotter because...". This site is kinda overwhelmingly frustrating.
In this group someone had posted a conversation that personal. He stated that he is frustrated with the search for that perfect female. He keeps dating and being let down by God. He almost fears that there is no one out there for him because of the luck he's had.
Now, I have to admit. I have been frustrated at God because I didn't have a boyfriend. Yes, I've even been impatient about finding that 'one man'. I have struggled with this a lot in my life-that's for sure. Until lately I have had a discouraging life. For the past couple of years I have realised so many things about my life and God's work in it that it seems, that to worry about my love life, is pointlessly lame. God has it in his hands...why worry right.
So, I just had to reply to this guys sad life. I encouraged him to seek other things beyond himself. Then I read some other replies, which said basically the same thing. This one lady wrote about seeking first God's kingdom and all these things will be added unto you.
It encouraged me to do some seeking. With not being in school it has been kinda rough going with the whole learning and growing part. So, I'm going to seek for a while now. Take my mind off of certain other distractions. hmmm. I'm excited.

Nice post Bethany.
A real deception to think God has let him down because he can't find the perfect girl.
I understand the frustration also, having been single for 36 years.
Keep up the true seekers heart for Jesus
