Should a christian use a dating agency?

Dating agencies can attract some really weird people. If you are a christian you are far better off trusting God to find you the right partner, or indeed to trust him to be right in giving you a single life. There are huge advantages in being single. All your time and energy can be spent in serving God where he wants you to be, without having to consider a partner's needs or demands. I have been married and now am single and loving it. For instance it is now 11.06p.m. if I was married my partner would probably be wanting me to settle down to sleep for the night, but instead I am able to write my blog and am not disturbing anyone. I've just had a troubled friend on the phone to me. A partner would be saying, "Your always on that phone, what does she want now?" But no, I am single and so disturbing no one and have been able to do God's work of helping my friend.

It is all very well for me to be holier than thou about dating agencies. I am content to be single, but many people are very lonely and long for companionship. If this is the case choose a christian dating agency, on or off the internet. Then you are more likely to find someone who shares your christian faith and interests. But always commit everything to God in prayer.

God knows the best direction for your life. Will you let him guide you into it? Read about my life below.

Life after death

When we lose a loved one it is natural to wonder how they are faring in the next life. I would warn against going to a medium to find out. At worst these people are charlatans after your money, the rest misguided or worse. We are told in the Bible not to try to reach the dead. The best person to call on in this situation is Jesus. That's right, go to the top. He is always available through prayer and doesn't make a charge. All he requires is that you look for him with all your heart. He has the answers to all of life's difficult questions.

Persecution of the sick in Britain

The British government, through the benefits system is persecuting thousands of people who are not fit to work, giving them very skimpy benefits. People who are not able to work for health reasons are not able to stand up for themselves. The goverment will answer to God when the suicides happen. People were treated in this way back in the Old Testament. Then exile was the result for the perpetrators. Something equally as bad will happen to those in power today. The churches should be aware that there are people in need and set up soup kitchens for these people.Many are in this position through no fault of their own. They should be helped not looked down upon.

Persevering

Sometimes it's hard to keep going with something we have started. A little setback can get in the way of trying to do something good. I want these thoughts to touch your heart and make you think things through. However as I cannot tell if anyone has read them unless you comment, I get disheartened and feel I am a voice calling in the wilderness. But who can tell who might light upon this page and be really encouraged or helped in their journey of life. If only one person was helped it would all be worthwhile. If you have been helped in any way by this blog do make a comment.I could do with some encouraging too.You can find more thoughts like these at this link A thought for each day
