Sometimes the people around you can make you feel like something is wrong with you because you are single—even though they may not intend to make you feel that way. Do you believe this, that maybe you are somehow not complete because you are single? You don’t have to feel incomplete. Instead, you can live the way Jesus did. He visited friends, met new people, and opened His arms to the children around Him. He was confident about who He was. He probably still experienced loneliness and longing, but He trusted God to bring the right people into His life with whom He could form meaningful friendships. The following message explores how to use Jesus’ example of being single to become satisfied with your life.

Pray
Jesus, I trust You to guide me in this journey and to bring the right people into my life so I can form meaningful friendships with whomever You put into my path.

Do I believe that I am not valuable as a single person?

Respond
Create friendships and meaningful relationships with the people God puts into your life so you can be satisfied being single.
