How can you know if you have the gift [of singleness]? If you are not married, and are at peace about it, you have the gift, even if you hope one day to marry. God does not allow us to peek into our own future. And Paul in [1 Corinthians 7], if he is encouraging anything, is encouraging us to embrace our liberty. Insofar as you are not breaking God’s law you may do as you wish. If you marry, give thanks for the gift of marriedness. If you are single, give thanks for the gift of singleness. Indeed in all things give thanks.

Until That Final Day

My flesh is tired of seeking god,
But on my knees I’ll stay.
I want to be a pleasing child,
Until that final day.

My mind is full of many thoughts
That clutter and confuse.
But standing firm, I will prevail,
In faith that I’ll be used.

Amen! I’m asking once again.
Won’t you help me my friend, lord jesus.
Holy lord spirit, set us free,
From chains we cannot see,
Come release us.

I wrestle not with flesh and blood,
My fight is with the one,
Who lost the keys of hell and death,
To god’s most precious son.

One sleepless night of anguished prayer,
I triumphed over sin.
One battle in the holy war,
God’s promised me to win.

Amen! I’m asking once again.
Won’t you help me my friend, lord jesus.
Holy, lord spirit, set us free,
From chains we cannot see,
Come release us.

My flesh is tired of seeking god,
But on my knees I’ll stay.
I want to be a pleasing child,
Until that final day.
