Star
Totally n 2 astology & numerology. Not 2 mention that was my alias when I used 2 dabble n the distribution of uhhhhm ya know. So anyway, 2day I write 2 u n awe of 1 particular star. Something about the way it speaks 2 me @ dawn. Like it shares w/ me all its secrets & it gives me a personal liberation. I wake w/ its rise feeling almost breathless @ the metamorphisis I am privelaged 2 witness. I say my morning prayers & ponder. I am ready 4 love but why have I been embarrassed 2 admit it? I wonder how many other young, sucessful ladies are out there screamin independence when they are really lonely? Or not even that but how many are so focused they looked from their fab careers, degrees & goal planning, only 2 find no1 there 2 take u the airport...sure u'll shuttle 2 & fro but damn...still no1 to kiss u @ the gate...let alone accompany u. See I thought admitting 2 wanting 2 b n love would make me less of a woman...u know? Or somehow ungrateful for all I have. That is not the case...it would be koo' 2 have a guy 2 share with it. Now what is my prob, is the older I get the higher my standards. The caliber of acceptable man evolves. No I have set the bar unrealistically high but I know a few good men. But I'm not interested in my friends that way, they just help reinforce why I won't settle. I had all these rules growing up & it kept me pretty sheltered. I let them go & it made my life very unsettling. Now on middle ground, w/ an inner light that burns brighter than the sun. I sit in my tower of clouds & wait 4 my star. Patiently breathing n 1 day after another. Its just I roll over sometimes n these huge hotel beds & its like...man I'm not goin be this hot forever...ok maybe I will but seriously. Anything can happen & all this wholesome buttery goodness will go unnoticed. Shame bc I think I have a rather cute shape & even more beautiful mind, not 2 mention the brains that r the cherry on top. & please don't get me twisted...by no means am I looking for a man or Mr. Right. I am simply ready 2 begin my happy ending.

Amen to that...Yea we scream independance because we are tired of what we have been getting....Would rather be alone than to deal with that drama and BS...but yes we all need to be loved...Lonley nights waiting for the right man to come along. We raise our standards because we are tired...but yes we can raise them too high but hey if a man isnt willing to jump that high for me because I am worth it than he isnt worth it...I'd rather be alone...Dreaming about him...I feel this same way every night...Tear drops staining my pillow case...Waiting for him to come and find me and sweep me off of my feet...Will he ever reconize me? But settling is out of the question...I'd rather be alone than settle...
Reviews on "Promises From God To Single Women"
Check out the Daily Bread devotional on-line to. You can request a free subscription and they will send you a handheld devotional to read every month. It is free by donate something. This book helped me get through my incarceration and if people didn't donate I may not have received such a great sword to use day by day.
"REVIEWS"
If you've never been proposed to,all relationships ended before six months,never been "the One" but always "the Other one", hit 28+ and have it all but the boyfriend/husband and kids, treat guys way better than a lot of wives and girlfriends do, have been told by unavailable and available guys you are awesome but you are still single, this book is for you! It does take the Christian stand point so for those who aren't Christian inclined might find some solace if they open themselves up to it. It's for us gals who have tried and failed in so many ways, even sleeping around when we gave up and did it for gettin' ours. We aren't going to hell for our actions he basically says. Instead he says to leave it to God and heal ourselves on the inside which is VERY hard to do but do it anyway.
I liked this book as it is a collection of Bible verses, commentary, and prayer on topics for women. While this book is intended for single women, I think the audience can be broader. As we all have a variety of women in our lives all at different stages in their lives.
This book covers specific topics such as: loneliness, friendship, betrayal, forgiveness, sex, healing, hopelessness, happieness, love, relationships, purpose, and abundance. These topics are so broad that they really touch more than the lives of just single women. Each topic has several pages of Bible verses, a brief commentary, and a short prayer.
T.D. Jakes has written a book that can be used time and time again. While for me this wouldn't be a good daily devotional, it is clear on a variety of topics and can be used as a wonderful resource for support. I really think this is a great book to have around when we are looking for hope and support on issues that trouble us.
This book is easy to read, and I really recommend this book to those of us that are women, and have women in our lives. Giving support to others through what you can read in this book could possibly give others a greater perspective. I definately recommend giving this book a try for single women, and even women that may not be single.
Mr Jakes,
This book has really Blessed and inspired my life as a single woman. It has encouraged me to use what God has Blessed me with and share with all single women to keep their eyes on the prize and because you are single does not mean God cannot use you to encourage,strengthen and Minister to other single women. In a lot of churches we donot hear the truth nor is it taught the way it should be. May God continue to bless you and yours as you continue to brake strongholds. Thank You for being obedient to the Spirit.
This a single woman's must have book. I am a big fan of T.D.Jakes and I am more impressed as I read and study his materials. This book reminds me of the promises that God has made for single women that wait patiently for a spirit filled partner. Thanks T.D. Jakes.
If you are really in need of refreshment as a Christian single woman, this is a great book organized by chapters so you can get to whatever you need quickly and easily
To Jen, I knew you'd get it. I too would rather be alone. Because I attend church regulary and get the opportunity to travel for business. I meet alot of good men. I know that there is a good one out there for me, but I ain't real press for him to get here. My focus is bettering myself as a person, as a woman, of God and noble character. I have alot of self improvement to do. So any man I meet will have to be in a constanct state of growth as I am. Basically I am waiting for the man who can bring what I bring or better. My standards are just high enough that I am not settling for just any ole thing. Yeah, I choose me any day. I too would rather be alone and happy, journal and Bible in hand, than stressed out by a guy. It's just that success doesn't hold you at night...nor does it pour your tea in the morning. But God gave me all that I am grateful and I wouldn't trade even the tiniest piece of what my life is now, just to be in love.
Thank you AGAIN for recommending this book AGAIN. However, for some reason you might be mistaken by my mood or outlook of being single. I LOVE IT. I actually enjoy being single very much. Every now and again, (not that often) I just want certain things. But the thoughts are fleeting & do not occur that often. I am very much content with my life as is. It has a rhythym, a pulse that I can barely keep up with...I highly doubt a man will be able to. Also, I am not the average woman...so therefore the caliber of man I want...well I am sure I am a long ways from him finding me. I have NOOOO desire to date or engage in casual sex. Also, (just an fyi) I prefer NOT to read books on being single or directed toward single people. I just don't like them. They simply don't move me. I am just not interested. However, I might check it out for it's scriptures...but then I can just keep reading the Bible for that. Uhhhmmm thanks again for the input, but Im good off dat one. I pretty much like how I tackle single...from my own perspective and by writing this blog. I know in my heart that God is the only man for me in my life right now. I am koo' with that. I hope my readers will check out this book since you're adament about pushing it. Have a wonderful day ndcush.
No I completely understand your mood and praise God you are happy with being single. The book was written and directed towards single christian women no matter what their position in life is. Trust me, you will love and adore it. I am an adament supporter of your work and would not recommend anything that would not contribute to success of it. I know from a "Man of God's Perspective" that the book is mind blowing and it provides spiritual guidance with proof text to all christian women. I also know some very exceptional "Women of God" who Love this book. Loved your last two blogs by the way.
A classmate of mine referred me 2 ur site...I enjoyed ur blogs especially the one titled Everything happens for a reason, I look forward to reading more...so I will stay tuned!
God Bless..
