I feel this on my heart for someone.
Precious daughter of God, STOP looking at every man who looks your way as your potential Boaz. You are worth so much more, and you will NOT have to force what is sent by God.
I’m going to repeat that last part, you will NOT have to force what is God sent.
Instead, dig deeper into the love God has for you, begin building a relationship with Jesus and stop stressing over finding a partner.
Most importantly, don’t put God on a timetable.

So often I hear women say things like, “I want to be married by the end of 2017”, but what would happen if we approached God with a commitment to trusting in His promises? What if instead, we said, “Lord, let your will be done, I trust your plans are to bring me good not harm.”
Don’t allow yourself to become desperate. YOU are the prize, YOU are His beloved. Stop focusing so much on the world around you and start fixing your eyes on your First love. There is a peace so sweet that comes with placing your love story in God’s hands. Daily the enemy will attack you with lies that God will not meet your need, so daily you are going to have to give it to God.
You are not just a future wife, a future mother, or a future daughter in law. You are a daughter of the King, you are HIS beloved. Your story doesn’t start the day you meet your Boaz, it started the day you gave your heart to Jesus. He LOVES you with an everlasting love. You are so much more than what this world tries to convince you that you are.
God has good plans for you, plans to prosper you, not harm you, plans that will give you HOPE and a beautiful FUTURE. (Jer. 29:11) What you can do right now in this season is enjoy this life God has given you and LIVE. Fall in love with Abba, you will find that makes the process of waiting so much more bearable because HE should be number one in your life.
You won’t regret waiting on God. However, you will regret not waiting on God and operating on your own timetable. Take this season to fall in love with God, yourself, and to prepare for your future, including marriage. I’m praying for each of you beautiful sisters that God will give you peace in this season of waiting, God’s love for you is so great.
