Day 1: Undivided devotion
But I desire to have you to be free from cares. He who is unmarried is concerned for the things of the Lord, how he may please the Lord; but he who is married is concerned about the things of the world, how he may please his wife. There is also a difference between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman cares about the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But she who is married cares about the things of the world--how she may please her husband. This I say for your own profit; not that I may ensnare you, but for that which is appropriate, and that you may attend to the Lord without distraction.
Singleness is not a waiting room for real life. Paul calls it a gift for undivided devotion.
“I say this for your own benefit… to secure your undivided devotion to the Lord.” Marriage is good; so is focused availability to Christ.
Where have you treated singleness as unfinished rather than entrusted?
Practice: Offer this season to God as gift, not delay. Lord, secure my undivided devotion. Amen.
