Dr. Shuler made a wonderful point about GOD could be holding the best for us as to why we are stil single or keeping us from abusive relationships. I believe that to be true. In my opinion as far as some women that are in their miid 30s I think our age bracket tends to feel like we are getting older and it’s about that time to settle down and grow old with someone not necessarily saying that marriage is the last stop. We want it all marriage, house ,kids, GOD, banging career, our sanity lol. Alot of us women have been waiting a long time for the one but it’s ultimately up to GOD when he will come. Overall good podcast and thanks Dr Shuler for sharing your thoughts and advice and thanks Jay for all that you continue to do.

Hey Renatha!
Thank you so much for taking the time out to listen and I am glad that you enjoyed the discussion.
Placing God at the center of our life is the first step toward true peace, joy and happiness.
Like the Word of God states in Matthew 6:33, “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.”
The key is to seek God first and thing the things we desire will be added to our lives. The process is laid out clearly for us. We must make the decision to follow it though.
