While I am waiting......


Hello good People,

It was indeed very interesting to read all the comments on how to achieve success in our marriages / relationships. I believe we found at least one of the points useful.
Today's short piece is specially dedicated to our single sisters.
Every lady dreams of walking the aisle someday with the man of her dream so as to live happily ever after. This dream may be actualized early in life perhaps in the early 20s or it can come as late as in the 40s and beyond. It may not even come at all, but whatever time it comes, we can only give God the glory.

Sometimes, it appears we have done all that is required of us but no man seems to be coming, then all forms of thoughts and questions begin to fill our hearts. Some of them we can answer, some we cannot.
The time of waiting is not a time to be gloomy, unhappy or crying. At times due to pressure from folks, one may even begin to contemplate on looking for the man herself, but this is not supposed to be. The bible says whoever finds a wife, finds a good thing, this implies that the man is to do the finding. If I should not go to look for him, what should I then do?
  • Have a life: Don't just sit down in self -pity, saying, when I get married, i will do this or that. Or i will be happier when I become a "Mrs". Your happiness does not depend on anyone, it's absolutely dependent on you. If you wait for someone else to make you happy, you may just be signing up for life of boredom. So make yourself interesting.
  • Be busy for yourself: An idle mind is the devil's workshop. You may try to learn something new aside your regular job or degree. It could be singing, fashion, makeup / makeover or whatever interests you. Also get busy with God's business. Do not wait until you get married before you become useful in His vineyard. God says we will serve him and he will bless us all round including a life partner. Serving God brings happiness and happy people attract happy people as well.
  • Be attractive: There is hardly any man who wants to woo a shabby looking woman, no matter who she is. Most men wants a woman who is attractive. Take time to beautify yourself. You will attract attractive men.
Got to go for today, but remember; Understanding establishes a house while Wisdom builds it.

Good day all,

I agree with the writer. At a point in my life i told myself i was not going to do masters because i wanted to get married that was 2011...Hmmmmmm trust me 2012 pasted,2013 pasted,2014 came and wanted to pass no marriage ,no masters ,no added value. But I took the bold step and started the masters of 2011 that I didn’t want to do because …”I WAS WAITING FOR MARRIAGE OH” .If marriage no come make yourself happy ,do things, travel, enjoy yourself and be happy while it last because when you get married you can never be single again.
Ladies please do something. If marriage no come, develop yourself, build your career, do alot of tangible things as a single person. It’s very important.

NICE DAY.

It would be very nice to imbibe the suggestions, to be happy for onself, find something to do and look good. May be it is easier said than done. Waiting for a husband is never going to be a palatable thing to do for a lady, i do not wish that even for my enemy.
It is better imagined anyway.
The cost of waiting can be much more than you have tabled here. However, I would say "Ile aanu Oluwa kii'isu"
It is well.

On the point of the woman being searched and not to search, I believe a woman should also either do some from of searching and maneuvering the man to finally appear to be the one searching or go out directly to search though in a modest way.
