"My singleness has not caught you by surprise"

I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. (Philippians 4:12 NIV)

Abba, I love the saying that my "singleness has not caught you by surprise."  Oh Abba!  I don't feel like I'm there yet with the learning to be content, but I am growing,  I'm okay with my life....most of the time, but I still have those moments where I covet my neighbor's life.  Thank you for not being done with me yet and for not giving up on me.  The one thing I know for sure is this: whether I am well fed or hingry, living in plenty or in want, feeling you by my side or feeling completely alone.....YOU ARE THERE.  You are with me and in control.  Thank you for revealing that to me and help me never forget.  And thank you for even having my relationship status in the palm of your hand.  I hope that maybe one day there will be a man to love me, but if not, I am so grateful for all you have given me and revealed to me, especially about me.  So I'm waiting in you and loving you, always.  Amen.
