Christian Singleness Quotes & Sayings

Your longing for an intimate relationship with another person is something you were created to feel.

An expectation and a challenge: to find the peace I could not find, to find the joy that was not mine, to forgive and be forgiven, when, in fact, my only sin and my only virtue, then and now, was my aloneness. — Randall Wallace

A true leader must have enough backbone to stand alone, even when the crowd wants to take the easy road home.
