Singles are crying out for help! One purpose on this Christian singles site is to listen and pray for them, whether they are sharing about their struggles with masturbation or some other secret that they feel they can’t share (how sad Pastors and Churches!) anywhere else but here.

Soul Mate Indicators for Single Christians
April 3, 2009
Are you a single christian looking for soul mate indicators? Well you’ve come to the right place! Finding your soul mate can be a difficult task. Once you get into a relationship with somebody, sometimes it is hard to know if they are the one that you are meant to be with forever. And to make things worse, if you do a Google search of “soul mate indicators” you find many astrology, numerology, and psychic web sites. These sites are bogus! The stars cannot tell you anything about who your soul mate is, and neither can a fake online psychic.
Remember to trust the Lord. God is the only one who know who your soul mate is and when/where the two of you will meet. After all, the Lord has the perfect plan for you life, so pray about it and ask him to reveal to you if the person that you are seeing is the one that you are meant to be with forever. If you let God guide your life, then nothing will go wrong. If the person you are seeing now ends up not being your soul mate, then trust in the Lord and he will guide you to your real soul mate. He knows the perfect time and place for you to meet them. The following are some real soul mate indicators that are based on the way God wants us to live our lives.
The most important indicator to look for in a potential soul mate is their love for the Lord. Your relationship should honor God, and the two of you should have a desire to serve the Lord together. You have to be connected on a spiritual level so that you can both honor God together, so if the other person doesn’t share you Love for Jesus, than maybe they are not your soul mate.
The next soul mate indicator is that you both Love each other and respect each other. You must love each other unconditionally just as the Lord loves us. I know this sounds obvious, but many times people jump the gun when it comes to knowing for sure if the person they are dating seriously is their soul mate. You need to love each other for who you are, and not want to change anything about the other person. You should also have a very close friendship as the foundation of the relationship. All the most fulfilling long lasting relationships have friendship at the root of them!
Amos 3:3
3Can two walk together, except they be agreed?
Single Dads Dealing with Grief and Loss
November 29, 2008
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.
