Before my 25th birthday, I had learned how to play 4 instruments, been to 7 countries, got a full time job in the music industry, and have been leading worship at my church for 6 years. Sounds pretty successful, right?

Well, at 25 it finally hit me, all my friends are dating, engaged, married, or even having babies, and I have yet to be in one relationship my whole life. Which lead me down a road of struggling with self-worth, comparison, disappointment, and my faith in God.

So, I spent over a year searching for answers to the biggest questions for Christians on singleness, dating, and marriage. Now I am on a mission to help other single Christian’s do the same. To dive deep in how to trust God in difficult seasons of waiting. To help single

Quotes by Mylee Bankston  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“When you guard your heart and fill it with godly influences, there is no room for comparison, heartbreak, or deceit. No room for anything that tears down your spirit and joy for life, only room for God and who he says you are.”
Mylee Bankston, Is Being Single a Gift?: Trusting God While Unpacking Hard Truths on Singleness

“Singles are told to be content with where they are in life but also encouraged and pressured to move out of their current “situation” or “season.” Being told both of these can become a bit confusing.”
Mylee Bankston, Is Being Single a Gift?: Trusting God While Unpacking Hard Truths on Singleness

“Let’s encourage singles to enjoy this season in other ways than simply telling them it’s a gift.
Because if we are being honest, marriage is a gift too and you can’t blame a girl for wanting it.”

Mylee Bankston, Is Being Single a Gift?: Trusting God While Unpacking Hard Truths on Singleness

“God’s story for someone’s life may look different than the “typical” story you are used to hearing, but that does not diminish the beauty and gift from God. It does not mean someone has lived life wrong. It means God has something else in store.”
