Perfect Match Dating and Waiting Game
2 CommentsSo another Valentine’s Day has come and gone and you still haven’t found that perfect match? I know some looking for that perfect match may feel like those poor folks from the Island of Misfit Toys, when they thought Rudolph and Santa had passed them by yet again. Sigh.
But please…don’t believe your doubts on this matter of finding your perfect match. The key here is waiting on God for His perfect timing. The world may tell you otherwise, but believe me, this is the way to go.
For whatever it’s worth, did you know that family counselors have found that the biggest break up day of the year is…the day after February 14? I can’t help but feel sorry for those dating singles who thought they had the perfect match in some person, but instead are now heartbroken.
The Perfect Match For You Will Happen in His Perfect Time
If you’re feeling down about your perfect match prospects, remember God promises to provide for all of your needs (Phil. 4:19), which includes your need for companionship. Just hang in there, and trust Him to do this in His time.
Bible Verse of Day
-He has made everything beautiful in its time-Eccl.3:11

Christian Marriage Vows and Submission
1 Comment
Discussing Christian marriage vows can be one of the hardest parts of planning a wedding ceremony. A lot of Christian single engaged couples stumble over Christian marriage vows because of one simple word: submission.
Christian Marriage Vow Controversy
Many traditional Christian marriage vows, in an attempt to express what was thought to be the Bible’s teaching on wives submitting to their husbands, include one little phrase where the bride pledges to “love honor and obey” her mate.
Today, most Christian marriage vows of brides delete the “obey” part, and have replaced it with “cherish”. Some couples have actually had arguments over this issue, to the point of delaying the wedding ceremony.
However, much of the Christian marriage vow controversy we see could be ended if only believers took another long look at what the Bible actually teaches about submission.
Daily Devotional
In our Bible Devotion for today, Pastor Dave Gremban, of Calvary Chapel Ann Arbor, Michigan, expounds on the idea of submssion:
“In Ephesians 5:21-33, we learn about mutual submission (v. 21) in the context of the marriage relationship. In short, a husband is called to submit to his wife by loving her; and a wife is called to submit to her husband by respecting him (v. 33).
“A husband who loves his wife, giving of himself as Christ gave Himself, reflects Christ and His love for the Church (v. 25). A wife who respects her husband
and submits to his leadership reflects the Church and her respect for Christ (v. 23-24).
“Let’s cultivate marriages that communicate this beautiful picture of Christ and the Church! May God’s Spirit enable us to each do our part.”
Bible Verse of Day
-Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.-Ephesians 5:21

Free Christian Dating Services
1 CommentI have a number of things to share about free Christian dating services. First of all, there are not many true free Christian dating services out there. Secondly, while there is one major plus to using a free Christian dating service (like the price), there is also one major disadvantage you should know about.
Free Christian Dating Service Drawback
Smaller Databases
Generally, free Christian dating services simply do not have as large a number of available people in their search databases. The end result of this is that it is much more difficult to find a soul mate based on variables like age, appearance and location. Still, it is our opinion that you should still give free Christian dating services a try. Why not? You have nothing to lose, and all to gain.
Just remember like most anything else in this life, you get what you pay for, except when it comes to our sins. That’s right. Jesus paid it all for us:
Bible Verse of Day
-For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord- Romans 6:23
