Christian parents are often heard at the Rehearsal Dinner of their children's wedding saying something to the effect of, "We have been praying for this moment for a long time." Most of us in this American society appreciate and recognize the gift of marriage. After all, a prudent wife is from the Lord.
But what about the gift of singleness? Do we really believe that God gives singleness as a gift (1 Cor. 7:7, Mt. 19:11)? If we do, are we believing and adding faith to this facts, and trusting that the singleness he gives us is a good gift? Are we honoring singleness as truly better than marriage?
These were the topics of today's sermon at Christ Community Church. If you want the notes for the outline of the sermon, let me know in the comments, and I will be glad to send you a copy.
