{Love} Searching for Love.

Written By: Taylor Horner

It seems like everyone is always searching for love. Love is something that most of us hope to find someday and we usually prefer the sooner the better! As we grow older and those around us start dating and “falling in love,” it can be easy for us to get caught up in the moment and be in a hurry to find someone as well. Sometimes being without a significant other while those around us have someone they love can make us feel insecure and left out. I want to remind all you beautiful ladies that the right person is WORTH THE WAIT.

God has someone planned for you that surpasses what you can imagine, and that person is worth waiting for! When we go for people who may not be who God has in mind it usually leads to heartbreak. When we get anxious to find someone to date, we tend to settle and compromise with what we want in a partner. God does not want you to settle or compromise. God has someone who is a perfect match for you; someone who fits into the plan of your life and someone who can help your walk with God become stronger. When we start searching for love instead of praying for the right person to come around we will be missing out in the wonderful plan God has for our lives. It is so important to pray to God to help prepare you for your spouse. While you are in this time of waiting for “the one” it is a perfect opportunity to work on strengthening your relationship with God and also better understanding yourself as a person- what your needs, wants, and goals are for the future. This can help you decipher what type of person would work in your life and what type you should walk away from.

I have been engaged for almost a year now and I am so happy that I did not settle in my relationship. My fiancé is someone who I know God planned specifically for me. We both have similar goals in life and this man treats me like absolute gold. He helps me strengthen my walk with God daily. EVERY single woman deserves someone that treats her like gold, just like how God treats us.

Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.

God loves us so much he has a plan made especially for us, and that includes that perfect mate! Searching for love can lead to us settling, but praying and waiting patiently for who God has planned for you will bring you to your happily ever after. Be patient woman of God; know that good things come to those who wait!

Until Next Time,
