Being a Single Christian in year 2016





Years back, i remember stumbling upon an article on Todays Christian Woman site about what it means to live a Christian life whilst single. Things like Jealousy, anger were mentioned. I look back at that post and ohhh, i wish that was the case!!! If you are serious about GOD you gotta be real. It is hard harrddd to stay true to GOD as a single lady i wont even begin to image what it would be if i were a man!! In a depraved world, a world where immorality ha become moral, where the abnormal has become normal.

First of all, SEX, SEX,SEX,SEX !! What do we do about SEX . I literately lost almost all my friends the day i decided to stay off sex, cos lets be real, sex is a sin, whether it is with a committed man or not. Sex is a sin. Whether you are engaged or not! For a lot of Christians and leaders in the church, we have somehow got to the stage where we have approved s within ourselves. Its an unspoken rule you do all you wanna do and go and lift up holy hands on Sunday. For me this was not the case, i would not have peace at all, i could feel the Holy Spirit hurting. I would feel him soo far from me! It was hard so hard to stay with him.
I remember countless times i decided no more, but i would still find myself going back to sin, i would cry and  cry and ask GOD to help me, i recall one night while i was crying..begging for the secret, the Holy Spirit whispered to me that mind blowing passage in Galatians 5:16 ''Walk in the Spirit and you will not fulfill the desires of the flesh'' He continued ''it is not your ability but my ability in you''. I screamed ! that was the secret, as long as i kept trying i would fail, if only i could just focus on him, spend more time with him, commune more with him, he himself would help me! This i did, i just stopped trying, just spent more time with him. I cannot tell you when i stopped, i cannot say when i stopped the wild parties, all the mad drinking, mindless sex, all i know is one day i looked back and realized i hadn't had sex in months, hadn't drank or watched porn. Somehow by being in his presence he changed me!! He himself took away my uncleanliness and clothed me with glory!



Halleluya! Why am i writing this down? Cos i know i am not the only one, i know some of you are out there trying to live for him. You will fall, but dont dwell on it, pick yourself up and go along! His grace is sufficient ! Shalom.

PS If you have experiences, please share and uplift someone.
