Christian Relationship Advice for Singles
7 CommentsMany singles contact us for Christian relationship advice, often asking questions like, “Should I get out of this relationship?” or “Should I marry this person?” Many times, however, Christian relationship advice is hard to give on issues like these because we don’t have all the information on the involved parties. Also, when dishing out Christian relationship advice, I’ve learned a long time ago to get both sides of the story before giving any advice on a topic.
Christian Relationship Advice in the Bible
Perhaps most important of all, specific Christian relationship advice on dating and issues related to singles is rarely found in the Scriptures. So what kind of Christian relationship advice do we offer?
First, if you are a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ, you have the Holy Spirit, the counselor of truth, abiding in you. He promises to guide you and lead in all areas, including helping you make wise decisions regarding relationships. In our Bible verse of the day, James 1:5 reads:
“If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him.”
Secondly, we have written a number of general Christian relationship advice articles dealing with the Christian singles life. These articles may be useful for Christians seeking general Chrisrtian relationship advice. For example:
Christian Relationship Advice on Breaking Up
Christian Relationship Advice on How to Mend a Broken Heart
Christian Relationship Advice About Dating Unbelievers
Christian Relationship Advice After Suffering Rejection
Christian Relationship Advice on Building a Good Marriage
Christian Relationship Advice on Conversation Starters
Christian Relationship Advice on dealing with Jealousy
Christian Relationship Advice for Abusive Relationships

Single Dads Dealing with Grief and Loss
2 Comments
Hundreds of single dads who lost their wives during the 9/11 terrorist attacks are still dealing with grief. One particular single dad I interviewed relayed that he and his deceased wife had both worked in the World Trade Center. He survived that day only because he was late to work after taking his child to the school bus.
Single Dads Going Through Grief
The worst part of that day for this single dad was having to tell his five year old daughter that her mommy was never coming home. As he shared, you could just feel the grief, guilt and anger oozing out of his heart.
Most singles can’t identify with the way this single dad lost his lifelong soulmate. However, many Christian single parents, both single moms and single dads, can empathize with his his sense of loss because they have suffered a lost relationship as well.
Let’s face it, losing a relationship is always hard, and a loss of a relationship through a divorce or death of a mate is a source of deep grief. Because “Michael”, the single father mentioned above, had no where dump his feelings, he ended up having a nervous breakdown. Sadly, he still suffers anxiety attacks as part of a Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome.
Fortunately, this should not have to be the case for Christian single dads (or single moms) suffering in this way because we have a heavenly Dad who wants us share our pain with him. Not only that, He has the wherewithal to give us real relief.
Bible Verse of the Day
“Cast your burden upon the Lord , and He shall sustain you.”
Psalm 55:22
Thought of Day
Lay down the burden of your heart.
I know you’ll never miss it.
Show your Daddy where it hurts,
And let your Daddy lift it.
Amy Grant
Consider helping other singles by sharing your experiences as a single dad.
