Should I Wait or Date?

My vote is to go ahead and date with caution. I've had my heart broken both ways--dating and waiting. Besides there is a rather unglamorous end to that story with Rebecca and Isaac. Someone wrote about it in Biblical Ways of Knowing She's the One:

Eagles arent attracted to turkeys! Classic.

OK, first, be clear I am merely holding a mirror up for another respondent, not belittling them.

"Faith is all well and good, but..." is, simply and plainly, not faith.

Now, specifically, if God puts you together with someone who dies, He will then also put you together with another if He wants.

Second-guessing God, and I think there's no other term for this, is not fear of the Lord, as in reverent awe and subjection to His will.

This article is an eye opener.Very educating and I believe will bless alot of singles.Keep up the good work.

Yes there is one person for each indidvidual. And things like accidental death and what not can only mean that wasn't the person for you. Even if you think you have met the one but they are not seeing it the same way you are. That only means that your rushing things and need to wait. If they marry someone else then they weren't meant for you. And if they were the one God will not force them against there own self will to marry you ( going back to one of the points made in the article ) therefore someone else will come along to take ther place. So yes there is one person that is going to fit your needs. And we must seek God for the answer and knowledge because it may be someone we are looking past because they aren't we we think we want.

THE ARTICLE WAS GREAT. I JUST HAVE ONE QUESTION...DO WE REALLY BELIEVE THAT THERE IS ONLY ONE PERSON IN TEH WORLD THAT WE CAN MARRY AND BE IN THE WILL OF GOD? THAT SOUNDS ALL WELL AND GOOD AND EVERYTHING, BUT WHAT IF THEY DIE? AM I CURSED TO BE SINGLE? OR WHAT IF I MARRY THE WRONG PERSON AND MEET THE PERSON THAT I "SHOULD" HAVE MARRIED LATER? IS IT FAIR TO LEAVE THE PERSON THAT I MARRIED AND BE WITH THE PERSON I SHOULD HAVE BEEN WITH IN THE FIRST PLACE? I DON'T KNOW IF I AGREE THAT IT'S ONE PERSON IN THE WORLD. I THINK THERE'S A TYPE...AND I THINK THAT IF GOD LABELS THEM AS BEING SUITABLE AND COMPLIMENTARY AND YOU'RE IN LOVE WITH THEM, MARRY THEM. I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT FINDING A MATE IS LIKE FINDING A NEEDLE IN A HAYSTAKE. AND THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE DOING IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR ONE PERSON OUT OF 6.5 BILLION. JUST A THOUGHT.

I really enjoyed this article it brought light to areas in my life, that i am faced with being a single woman wanting to be married. I have dated and i have had my heart torn open my feelings hurt and body used up. I have already known that it is in my best iinterest t to wait on God which i have always known to be the best for me. This article brought some light to situations that I am dealing with in my life so I thank you and God that i ran across this article. Thank you very much. I will wait on the Lord...Yours truly Anita
