Besides dating, what are other things you would like to do or be in your life?Then I'll have a new body, new home and money will not matter.
Companionship, nice home and decent income. Nothing else matters.Besides dating, what are other things you would like to do or be in your life?
Focus on serving the LORD in the meantime and maybe he will reward you with the woman you desire.Then I'll have a new body, new home and money will not matter.
I think I should wait until the millennium age to start dating again.
Did that for 20 years, in the church, It happened to others, but not to me. It's like being in a group with cancer. GOD touches and heals some, but does not touch others.Focus on serving the LORD in the meantime and maybe he will reward you with the woman you desire.
"Delight yourself in the LORD and He will give you the desires of your heart." Please read Ps. 3:3-31
Prayerfully...

Marriage can be tough. For me, I was always extremely happy being single.Did that for 20 years, in the church, It happened to others, but not to me. It's like being in a group with cancer. GOD touches and heals some, but does not touch others.
What would be the point of dating when you will not be married at all then, as Jesus said?Then I'll have a new body, new home and money will not matter.
Who are we supposed to be pleasing--ourselves, others, or Jesus--all the time? Jesus. Certainly, never ourselves.Marriage can be tough. For me, I was always extremely happy being single.
And I mean so happy that I sometimes felt bad about it........
I burned thru at least two (8 CD packs) of "Berliner Philharmoniker Beethoven 9 Symphonien ouverturen by Karajan" (considered to be the finest recording of all time) in my younger days.
All while joyously driving wherever and whenever I wanted to go and be. At absurd high volumes that ended up blowing out my right ear to a significant degree. It was pure bliss a lot of the time. Not to mention the vast quantities of Mozart, Bach etc etc.
You cannot do that when you are married bro. You have to please others not yourself. Wifey is always telling me to turn the volume down nowadays ROFL.
I'm talking about marriage insofar as pleasing another.Who are we supposed to be pleasing--ourselves, others, or Jesus--all the time? Jesus. Certainly, never ourselves.

May I be nosy and ask at what age did you marry?I'm talking about marriage insofar as pleasing another.
Just to be clear, my driving around, many many travels and adventures and singleness was a non-stop endless exultation of Jesus.
I would listen to sermons and bible CD's for literally 8 hours straight while driving. Did that for literally decades.
Endless quantities of sermons. And huge quantities of beautiful music as well.
Nothing wrong with that bro.
``My grace is sufficient for thee.` that phrase was only used with Paul. Would you honestly use it for someone who has lost their job, or a family member? or someone with brain cancer?When a person is so dissatisfied with their life I recommend helping those less fortunate or even more being content with the relationship, hopefully you have, with Christ Jesus.
``My grace is sufficient for thee.``
Jesus said there is no marriage in heaven. He did not say there wouldn't be any close relationships.What would be the point of dating when you will not be married at all then, as Jesus said?
The one who is able to accept this, let him accept it. ' For there are eunuchs who were born that way from their mother's womb, there are eunuchs who were made by men, and there are eunuchs who have made themselves that way because of the kingdom of heaven. The one who is able to accept it should accept it." Matt 19:12 Some can accept the singles life, others never will. It's not in them to accept it.Marriage can be tough. For me, I was always extremely happy being single.

Did Paul ever use that phrase on anyone? He only said what GOD told him and only him.I am not one who preaches carry your cross and expect hardships day and night, but certainly this is a rather callous comment about God.
