God can be there for you, and give you peace when you are going through something, but sometimes a big ole soft shoulder to sink your face into is so missed.

I really struggle with those that want to tell you just let God be your everything - - knowing all the while what they are meaning.

And, that's not even bringing into the conversation personal, sexual needs.

Know what I mean?
THANK YOU. I am SICK of apostolics giving singles the same old tired responses "you re never lonely with jesus", "wait on God" etc etc. While many singles are losing the battle with satan and leaving the church, or marrying outside.

God should be first in any believers life, but people down play the importance of having a mate. Basically singles are just told to suck it up, often given this advice by church members who were married young.
