I found the same to be true in my own life. Years go by and no
girlfriend. EVER. but that not what life is about. Serve God. I
recently was thinking about my great-aunt. Her husband died a few
weeks ago. they had been married over 66 years. She alway spoke about
what good friends they where. How he worked so hard to provide for
their family. And he said the same. How she always kept a nice house
and made such good meals. Together they served the LORD their entire
life together. WOW.
