THANK YOU. I'm glad God forgave me and restored me. I tell my daughter often how precious she is to the Lord. So does her daddy. I hope that she never has to learn things the hard way like her mother did. My parents divorced when I was 2, by the way. A girl without her father is a desperate girl indeed. I would suggest that if you know a DIVORCED mother, please reach out to her and her kids!!!

You nail it there. Many thirty-something singles sneer from singles group because they feel somewhat trapped in a meat market. Either apathetic singles or i-gotta-hurry-up-to-get-my-mate-and-get-out-of-this-group singles make this scene even sadder. By saying this I don't mean there is no hope for thirty-somethings (or even twenty-somethings!). What I say is that perhaps an aggresive discipleship focused on becoming the person God would want us to be with humility at its core (because pride always will try to get us down the path of despair and giving us more jerks we can handle) would prepare better the younger generations to tackle down the issue of prolonged singleness. Read the book I suggested if you get a chance. Grace and Peace “But that revamping must start young.”
