Single - Author Unknown

What makes you think that just because I am an
Attractive woman of Godly intelligence
That I'm incomplete without a mate?

Who told you that
Without a man
Something's missing
From my life?

And if so,
What would that be?

Love?

I love myself
And more importantly
I love the Lord
He told me that when I delight in Him,
He will give me the desires of my heart

Security?
I have everything I need according to His riches in glory.

Intimacy?
Now, how's a man going to get to know me
When he doesn't even know who he is in the Lord
See my Dad told me I'm above a ruby's worth
And a gem does not seek
It is sought

I'm single and that's all right with me
See, it's not that I oppose relationships
It's that I detest co-dependency
As a woman
I know it is not my role
To chase after any man

That I am to wait on my Lord and when he's delighted in me.
He will call me by my name.
My Lord does not intend for me to be needy or desperate.
I am to be Cherished, Relished, Valued, and Honored,
It's not my job to convince him
Or Convict him of that,
My mate will already know it
And consistently show it
And he will stay on his knees daily
Not just to adore me
But to praise the Lord for
The virtuous woman he has found

So, when you see me by myself
I'm not alone
I know what I have coming to me.
