I'm not sure how I feel about it as a christian, even though I'm poking around in what it might have to offer. I realize that here, in this new city, it's becoming harder (not easier) for me to meet new people. I have somehow slipped into a weird comfortability with just being by myself. Which is Ok, I suppose, unless you'd really like to have a husband some day. I struggle between two thoughts, though.
1. I should not be "searching" for a mate either online or otherwise because God will send him to me only in His timing, and i should just be patient. Infact, by "searching" I could be distracting myself from His will, and prolonging the time until my future husband does arrive.
2. God has left this decision to me. While he has not left be completely alone in the matter, he has given me all the instruction and skill that I need to choose someone who will join me in honoring Him through a commited relationship. God wants me to seek out and have fun, meet new people, be bold, be open-minded (but not unequally yoked) and passionate.
I think perhaps these two thoughts somehow mesh together in my daily life and create a nice balance in my "search"/"waiting".
God I know when the time is right I will me him no matter if I am looking or not. I trust that you will open my heart the instant I meet him. God I hope to honor you in all things, this being no exception.
