That means that they will not automatically feel fulfilled when they become wives and mothers. If you are having problems being content as a single person, that temptation will not go away when you get married. You will just be waiting for a baby, or a house, or a pay raise, or whatever is the next best thing. Basically, you still need to work on 1 through 5 even when you're married! <br /><br />Amen to 6 through 8! If you spend your single years dreaming about being married, you will spend your married (and parenting) years regretting that you didn't use them more wisely and creatively! This of course is an attitude you will have to deal with. We would all be much more happy if we would live fully in the moment for the glory of God and His kingdom!<br /><br />Number 9 can continue to be a problem if you idealize the married state. Marriage is work and when your friends get to that mushy, romantic stage you can be tempted to wish you were there again. <br /><br />And number 10 is of course true for every area of life!<br /><br />Thanks for this excellent advice (or thoughts, or whatever it is you want to call them!). Your whole family often reminds me about the power of prayer and to pray proactively and I really appreciate it.Amanda Evanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08327531562563484497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4099816500859741489.post-42700722889850440752011-11-25T06:59:24.106-08:002011-11-25T06:59:24.106-08:00Wow!
