I love finding new stuff. One of my favorite webpages is Family Life. They have such a wide variety of resources for singles. I get disappointed at times with ministries that quickly clump "College and Singles" together because the older I get the more I don't fit in that puzzle. Family Life has done an excellent job providing quality resources and texts for single adults- minus all that college business. I ran across this fun article today though- here is the link.
Loneliness- Wanting an "It"
This article made me both laugh and cry- it sounds alot like something Christy and I would do. Naming the odious missing "It" in our lives. It harbors a very interesting concept though. The meaning of the word alone means 'all plus one'. So to make it personal you can interpret it as "All of Him plus one of me" (read the article). The article hit home though... over and over again. Hopefully the link will remain active for a while. This concept was taken from Wendy Widder's book Living Whole Without the Better Half. Might make a good read sometime. One of my other favorite things from Family Life is the Singles Suggestion list. I love this- I don't know why- I'm wierd that way. Here is the list though.
Singles Tips
Some of these could be fun... pottery(#1)? Try imagining Heaven(#31)! I'm committing to number 11 this week. I'm jumping around in the list though- it's a little bit more fun that way!
