the same. Smart men don’t want to marry a

marriage.

not having a man in this season. Learn to be
happy on your own. Find joy in those things
that make you happy. Love what you have and
don’t covet what others have. Spend time in
your singleness doing the things that you love
to do. Travel, find hobbies and do the things
that married women tell you that you won’t
have time to do when you get married and
then become a mother.

be about give and take. While you are single,
learn that you don’t always have to be right
and accept that most things will not always
happen your way. Be willing to sacrifice what
you want for the benefit and happiness of
others.

supporting others. It is important to have your
own goals and motivations prior to becoming
one with your future husbands. The single
season is a great opportunity to begin building

walk in it. Many people shy way from this
discussion. Submission is not equivalent to
obedience. Submission is yielding in love.

understand the role of a wife. In your
singleness, God is your husband. Submit
yourself to Him. Trust His plan and timing for
your life

who walks gracefully, respects herself and
others around her.

and woman. This is a great starting list to help
single women prepare.
