Hope for the Single Woman Longing for Marriage

Unwanted and extended years of singleness are an ever-growing reality amongst many of our lives. 

Dealing with an unexpected season of singleness can be a source of great struggle, frustration, and loneliness for those of us who have found ourselves in this position.

In today’s vlog, Bethany opens up and shares how she’s found hope as an unmarried woman herself. She shares her favorite verses, quotes, and truths that have helped her have true hope throughout these unexpected years of singleness.

True hope can be your reality too.

The two of us encourage you to meditate on Proverbs 3:5-6 and to make the prayer by Betty Scott Stam your prayer as well.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths (Proverbs 3:5-6). 

Prayer by Betty Scott Stam. 

“Lord, I give up my own plans and purposes, all my own desires, hopes and ambitions, and I accept Thy will for my life. I give up myself, my life, my all, utterly to Thee, to be Thine Forever. I hand over to Thy keeping all of my friendships; all the people whom I love are to take second place in my heart. Fill me now and seal me with Thy Spirit. Work out Thy whole will in my life at any cost, for to me to live is Christ. Amen.” -Betty Scott Stam
