You may know what some people’s will is for your life. You may feel the pressures of culture to conform to one set of expectations, the pressure of family or friends to meet other sets of expectations. You feel the push of your inner drive to achieve this or accomplish that; to do this better and to improve on that; but getting in touch with God’s will for your life will help you to focus on what is actually important and necessary. It will help you to shed the unrealistic expectations that come from others or yourself.Uniting Women and Teenage Girls to Impact Their Worldhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15793016289721728072noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735377663883123181.post-44499682392295071112013-05-30T15:00:00.000-07:002013-05-30T15:00:07.796-07:00#AlltheSingleLadies: Running from Loneliness with Overcommitment @MinisterCeleste<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="color: black; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It is easy, as a single person, to become overcommitted and not even notice that it is being used to "stay busy" and avoid what may be "lonely" moments. However, overcommitment is not productive. In the alternative, perhaps, some of you know you are overcomitting yourself and want to get out. Well here are some practical steps we can take:</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: black;">Do not answer immediately. Pray about it, check your calendar, and seek godly counsel if necessary. You may also try screening your calls to avoid feeling pressured into giving an immediate response.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: black;">Count the cost. Ask yourself: Is committing to this activity/performing this favor going to cut into my time with God, my family, or my partner? Will I be making a one-time commitment, or will this become an on-going responsibility?</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: black;">Pray. God doesn’t intend for you to do everything.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: black;">If you do accept, communicate your limitations. Don’t assume that people know your limitations. Make them known up front to avoid being overstretched and volunteering more time than you have to give.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: black;">If you don’t accept, give them a lead. If you decline an opportunity to serve, perhaps you can still assist by suggesting someone else who might be able to help.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: black;">Don’t feel guilty about your well-considered decision. You don’t have to justify or explain why you can’t do it. Just say no graciously and trust that God will provide the right person to fill the role.</span></span><br />

Your problems don’t mean that God is judging or disowning you. Satan would love to convince you of that.

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">[We compare ourselves] because we're uncertain of our identities. Comparisons are our attempt to feel better about ourselves and bolster our esteem. The real issue is, where do you find your esteem? Take the self out of self-esteem and replace it with God-esteem and you have a different picture. If you try to love yourself apart from God, you'll fail. Esteem doesn't come from your appearance, your work, your family, or other people. You're highly esteemed simply because God created and chose you. God doesn't say, "If only she'd lose five pounds, I could love her more." [Yet] “Just five more pounds” is most women's mantra.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Focusing on what we think we can control—eating and dieting—can be easier than dealing with issues we feel are out of our control. But working on the outside without addressing the inside doesn't work long term. Too many of us allow the physical to distract us from the emotional, relational, and spiritual aspects of our lives. We can easily assess and correct our appearance in the mirror. But we tend to avoid working on invisible emotional pain because we fear we won't be able to resolve it. So we let our outer beauty cover up inner struggles.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">You might change your hairstyle rather than work through a difficult parent relationship. Or you might diet to get a false sense of control over your life when your marriage is falling apart. When we read God's Word, listen to his voice, and pray, he changes us. Altering the physical doesn't fix the internal. Only Jesus can set us free from our insecurities.</span>Uniting Women and Teenage Girls to Impact Their Worldhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15793016289721728072noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735377663883123181.post-25845301847062352882013-04-06T03:00:00.000-07:002013-04-06T03:00:09.165-07:00#AlltheSingleLadies: You Don't Want What You Think You Do!<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We know it sounds like a cliché, but in this case it’s true: single women are often initially attracted to qualities in a man that become problematic in marriage. Most won’t realize this until the fog of infatuation lifts. How can you single women be sure this won’t happen to you?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Let’s take one example: women are more likely to experience romantic love with highly dominant men—not dominant in a healthy, let-me-serve-you way, but dominant in a controlling kind of way (which, at the start, looks like he’s just taking care of you). These men often demonstrate less ability to express the kind of companionship, relational skills, and emotional attachment that women ultimately desire in a lifelong mate.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Acts 6:3 sums it up perfectly: “Select men who are well respected and are full of the Spirit and wisdom.” This is what the early church looked for in leaders of their congregations, and it’s what you want to look for in leaders of your home. Men who are filled with the Spirit—they are alive to God, and God is active in them—and men who are full of wisdom. You won’t regret making a choice founded on that basis.

<span style="line-height: 24px;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Being single is all about you. You're the boss, so do what makes you happy — nothing is stopping you. You can spend a day reading in the park or go to the movies by yourself without feeling guilty for wanting to be alone. You can pursue a new hobby without worrying about how time-consuming it is. Your independence will come with ease. Your time is yours to use however you decide. Go explore and learn — there's nothing holding you back.</span></span><br />

So get out there, meet new people, strike up a conversation, and wink at the cutie in the cafeteria.</span></span><br />

This might sound like it couldn’t work. Like you are just making things up and lying to yourself. Well, that might be the case. But it still works. If you don’t feel confident, fake it and play the part of how you would think and behave if you were confident. Soon you’ll really start to feel confident. The part becomes real.</span>Uniting Women and Teenage Girls to Impact Their Worldhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15793016289721728072noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735377663883123181.post-25325272317285094672012-12-18T15:00:00.000-08:002012-12-18T15:00:09.242-08:00#AlltheSingleLadies | Soar Like an Eagle, Let Your Creativity Soar<span style="background-color: white; color: #353535; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; line-height: 17.33333396911621px;">Everyone is a creative person. But after childhood and the teenage years this is sometimes forgotten. Rediscovering your creativity is a good way to improve your confidence in yourself. Creating something is a wonderful but not always easy experience. But when you’re done you not only feel good about yourself. Sometimes you discover new, previously unknown parts of yourself. Being creative is good a way to get to know yourself and your hidden capabilities.</span>Uniting Women and Teenage Girls to Impact Their Worldhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15793016289721728072noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735377663883123181.post-61642041859602187202012-12-11T15:00:00.000-08:002012-12-11T15:00:00.228-08:00#AlltheSingleLadies | Soar Like an Eagle, Face a Fear<span style="background-color: white; color: #353535; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; line-height: 17.33333396911621px;">If you face a fear then your confidence takes about ten steps up. And for every time you face a fear you can slowly start to discover that the classic quote “There is nothing to fear but fear itself” was not just another empty cliche.</span>Uniting Women and Teenage Girls to Impact Their Worldhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15793016289721728072noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735377663883123181.post-5391211714171878622012-12-04T15:00:00.000-08:002012-12-04T15:00:09.972-08:00#AlltheSingleLadies | Don't Block the Flow Series, Friends and Family<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana; line-height: 18px;">Do your friends and family take advantage of your “good nature” and ask you to do too much for them with little or no return of the favor? Unfortunately, it's not always a “good nature”, sometimes it is a red light of self-esteem. Something is blocking the natural understanding you have as a goddess being about balance, versus the give and take in any relationship. Have the courage to say, “That’s enough!”</span>Uniting Women and Teenage Girls to Impact Their Worldhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15793016289721728072noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735377663883123181.post-44143305709707854122012-11-27T15:00:00.000-08:002012-11-27T15:00:00.700-08:00#AlltheSingleLadies | Don't Block the Flow Series, Settling for Less <span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana; line-height: 18px;">You see it everywhere – </span><a href="http://singlemindedwomen.com/women-relationships/i-got-married-1-wedding-day/" style="background-color: white; color: #7d5575; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana; line-height: 18px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank" title="I Got Married and Other Mistakes cartoon #1">women who settle or say yes to relationships that don’t really work</a><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana; line-height: 18px;"> for them because they are essentially convinced they cannot really be treated like the goddesses they are.

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.100000381469727px;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.100000381469727px;">Feeling good can do wonders for your self esteem. Buy yourself a new outfit that makes YOU feel good when you wear it.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.100000381469727px;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.100000381469727px;">Get a new hairdo and/or a manicure right before the party date. The natural high from getting something done and looking good will help your party spirit. Just don't go overboard.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.100000381469727px;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.100000381469727px;">Remember, you only live once and life is what you make of it, even at times it may be hard to keep a smile on your face.</span>Uniting Women and Teenage Girls to Impact Their Worldhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15793016289721728072noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735377663883123181.post-46010071606324674442012-11-13T15:00:00.000-08:002012-11-13T15:00:09.212-08:00#AlltheSingleLadies | Don't Block the Flow Series, Don't Self-Destruct!<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana; line-height: 18px;">Sure indications of blocks in the area of personal and/or spiritual growth are ignoring your intuition or hunches and/or continuation of self-destructive behaviors even when the negative results in your life are very obvious. You must tackle what is necessary to heal the self-esteem issues that harbor such behaviors.</span>Uniting Women and Teenage Girls to Impact Their Worldhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15793016289721728072noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735377663883123181.post-29647174780264670712012-11-06T15:00:00.000-08:002012-11-06T15:00:00.657-08:00#AlltheSingleLadies | Don't Block the Flow Series, Fun and Recreation<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana; line-height: 18px;">Are you someone who works all the time? With excellent self-esteem and self-love, who would work so much doing a job she hated? Do you work or play too much? It is probable that if you do, you are dealing with some sort of block to your own happiness and fulfillment.</span>Uniting Women and Teenage Girls to Impact Their Worldhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15793016289721728072noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735377663883123181.post-58495069408897466612012-10-30T15:00:00.000-07:002012-10-30T15:00:00.628-07:00#AlltheSingleLadies | Don't Block the Flow Series, Clutter<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana; line-height: 18px;">Clutter is an example of a block. I’m not saying if you don’t put everything away every time you use it, you are blocked and living in clutter. You aren’t bad or wrong. What I am saying is that if your piles have piles, you can’t remember the last time you saw your appointment book or your telephone bill, you are living with clutter – a physical manifestation of a block.</span>Uniting Women and Teenage Girls to Impact Their Worldhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15793016289721728072noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735377663883123181.post-42508849219564485792012-09-28T02:30:00.001-07:002012-09-28T02:30:00.538-07:00Make Your Life Anything You Want it to Be #AlltheSingleLadies<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="background-color: white; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 5px; margin-top: 10px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is ultimately the biggest advantage to being a single woman. You have the unique opportunity to mold and shape your life and pursue your dreams.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 5px; margin-top: 10px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There are no reasons to settle for second-best and no one else is depending on the choices that you make. Even if your ultimate goal is to marry and settle down, you might as well get your own life in place first.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 5px; margin-top: 10px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 5px; margin-top: 10px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So go for the brass ring and shoot for the stars. Create the life that you want for yourself and then, if you want one, find a partner who will fit into that life.</span></div>

<a href="http://dcist.com/attachments/dcist_eddie/2011_0821_dating.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="http://dcist.com/attachments/dcist_eddie/2011_0821_dating.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Too often, women are distracted by their current partners and have little time to consider qualities they want in an ideal partner. Use this time for self-reflection. Consider your past relationships: Why didn't they work out, and what was lacking? More important, reflect on yourself. What are your strengths? What kind of partner do you need to match your temperament? What are your passions? Do you need someone who shares these passions? These reflections will prevent you from making the wrong decisions once you start dating.</span></span>
