There’s nothing like being reminded that you’re all alone with no one to call your “Boo” like on Valentine’s day. Emotional distress of loneliness and we’ve all been there one time in our lives. I once wrote a song about it. And no matter how many times you’re told your Mr. or Miss right will come, “pray and the Good Lord who hears and answers prayers will send someone.” It’s been five years and you’re still waiting and seems like God got the memo for everyone except you. All you can do is sit sincerely happy for your friends in a relationship, because it’s the Christian way to be. Listen to them brag about their dates, what they gonna wear and where they’ve been etc. And it hurt inside your souls because you’re praying, “when would it be my turn?”

No one wants to be alone. Companionship is not over rated it makes us live longer, it is what helps to motivate and encourage us. Everyone needs someone, scriptures declares, it is not right to be alone, Genesis 2:18. Even if someone does like human companionship look how happy they can be with animals. From the beginning of time man was never alone we always had God. It’s in our nature to desire companionship.

Don’t allow the devil to make you feel so alone and inadequate because you’re not in a relationship and it’s Valentine’s day. The devil is a liar, because Valentine’s day is for all: family, friends and partners. You’re loved by the seen and most of all the unseen himself, our Lord. You are surrounded by love. Allow love to begin within you, love yourself.

Remember God is a jealous God. Love him more that anything you want so the devil doesn’t tempt you. God will give you what he sees you truly need especially because He’s omniscient. God knows the past and also the future of our life, he knows us more than we know ourself, trust his will. Going to pray for a Companion? Then pray that He sends you a Joseph like Mary. Someone who will aid you to fulfill his purpose and plan for your life. Every woman wants a Boaz, he will provide you with the wealth and notoriety, but a Joseph will provide your every need with the aid and guidance of the Lord himself. He will serve the Lord through serving you. Unlike Adam, Joseph understood the will of God for his help mete and fulfill it. He did everything in obedience to God for Mary and baby Jesus.

Don’t get it twisted companionship doesn’t fall from the sky. It takes time after a long search, so don’t give up. For everybody there’s a somebody and love can find you unexpectedly. Sound like lyrics for a song, lol. The only thing that hold some of us back is our demands and expectations. Let your fantasy of being in love like in the movies go and come into reality.
