Single retreat was very inspiring!! It challenge me not to assume that getting married is what complete us as a woman. I guess it has helped me a lot to deal with the yearning to find a life companion. Being in the Kingdom, we have this Heaven on Earth experience. In Heaven I don't think we are married to anyone but Christ and that's how it should be now since we have our brothers and sisters.
Thankfully I went for the single retreat, they should have this every year! I can say that my attitude about friendship with brothers changed after this. I no longer only build friendship for a reason but for the facts that God loves and therefore I need to imitate His love. Of course friendship with sisters I have no problem building. I guess its my pride too for holding back my love as a sister for the brothers.
Singleness does not equate us with loneliness, we can be single yet contented! I had a lot of spiritual buffet during the retreat and it quench my lonely soul.. I realize at one junction in time we will be bound to be alone. Just watching Beaches helps me to be grateful for all my best friends and I want to make more effort to be there, to be your CC Bloom!! ^^
I have been reading "
The Five People You Meet in Heaven" and I am thinking that, yes! everyone I know, God has placed them for a reason, to teach me lessons, to help me grow and molded into what He wants me to be. We were all created for a reason and that itself has helped me to feel special.
