Sometimes it feels impossible to believe that "it is good to remain single." - 1 Corinthians 7:8
In a world that glorifies romance and sex, many of us have fallen for the lie that singleness is second-best . . . or that even we are second-best compared to our married friends.
So how can you learn to believe singleness is good and truly experience its blessings?
How do you handle the loneliness, the desire for kids, or the heartache of breakups? How do you embrace what you have instead of wishing for the things you don't?
As impossible as it may seem, singleness truly is as good as marriage.
If you're wrestling with being content in your singleness, this book will provide empathy and encouragement while offering biblical truths and practical steps to help you combat that "grass-is-greener" syndrome. You don't need to be married to live the abundant life Christ offers to all believers.
'Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.' - Matthew 11:28
The world is full of things that undermine our faith. Too often, we push and scramble through life, allowing our feelings to control our decisions, attempting to accomplish things in our own strength, and trusting in worldly wisdom rather than God. This leaves us frazzled, overwhelmed, and grumbling through every difficulty like the Israelites did in the desert.
But we don’t have to live that way! The peace God promises is real and available to every believer.
This book tackles many of the obstacles we let come between us and God—things like fear, failure, insufficiency, and expectations. The biblical examples and truths explored will bolster your faith, calm your spirit, renew your strength, and shift your focus from the earthly to the eternal, freeing you to embrace God’s rest in all circumstances.
