Revelations of a Single Woman

Jan 25–26, 2010 - comments: 2

Growing up, most girls dream of their wedding day. They imagine the most beautiful gown, the tastiest cake, and most importantly, the perfect man. But what happens if that day never comes. Many women in our churches are waking up in their thirties and forties, finding that they must face life without a partner.

Today we’d like to welcome Connally Gilliam to the program. She is a single woman who works as a life coach with young adults in there twenties in the Washington, DC area with an organization called Navigators. Her experience being single and working with the growing single population gives her great insight for the topic were going to be talking about today.

I’d like to share a quick story that happened last night on the way home from work. I’ve been struggling with my current status as a Divorced woman at age 40, for a while.  Especially lately the burdon is almost more than I can handle.
While talking with God, and reading other devotions,I understand that my heart’s desire and God’s Will are still two different things. While I long to be united again with a spouce, I’m dreading what God may have for me in maintaining my Singlehood status.  Last night, after I felt talked out and just needing some silence, but longing for His reply, I tuned in to your program on AFR. I plan to get this book as soon as possible.  I was wondering if it may have a Bible Study to accompany it?  After reading it, I will talk with my Pastor and see if there may be an opportunity for a women’s group study, using this book in chapter review and a self heart search or journal.
Thank you Ms. Gilliam, your inspiration came just when I needed it the most.
