Hearing from God Each Morning (August 22)

This blog is about today’s devotion in the book Hearing from God Each Morning by Joyce Meyer.

Today’s devotion convicted me even more about not dating right now. I have been praying about being single and cutting that out of my life for the time being. Today’s devotion talks about how God’s Word works on us, as an operation of sorts. Meyer writes, “Operations of any kind are never pleasant, but they are necessary at times to maintain good health.” I feel like God is really putting it on my heart to pledge to singleness for more than just the month I have pledged.

I feel I need to spend more time in prayer over this. Cutting out dating is such a huge thing in my life, and I know it will be hard for me. I can only do it with God’s help. I also need friends to hold me accountable for this. I shouldn’t be seeking a relationship at this time, but developing my relationship with God. If I’m not comfortable with singleness and having God alone, then I will not be fulfilled in even the best of relationships.
