OUR LOVE STORY | • We Met on UA-cam | Wh...
While reading comments about people saying that they’re in their 20s and tired about being single, what about those who are above 60s and 70s and have never been married and yet desire having a spouse and family of their own? As you age the loneliness is real
Yes. I'm in 60s and want to marry again and it's been challenging. At 60 people have baggage and trust issues. Women out number men. The men I meet are often scared to get hurt so they refuse to marry. It's freakin rough!
I appreciate your willingness to confront criticism. I'm 29 and have been single my whole life and it's hurtful to see young Christian couples because it makes me feel despondent and doubtful towards God. I recognize this to be wrong though, so I frequently repent and try to be grateful instead, even to be happy for them. It's a struggle for me because I don't want to be negative, I don't want the devil to win. One issue I take with this video is the idea that singleness is the time for a closer relationship with God. Marriage is literally a work for God, it helps build nations! Having kids raises children for God and creates citizens for Heaven! Lastly I pray that Sadie can get past her health problems, I'm sorry to hear about that.
Ralph, I know 2 people who were in your situation - they're both happily married now. Found love after 30.
@@imdee9024 Thank you for your encouragement. I appreciate it.
Ralph, I am much older than you are and still single. In my life I have come across so many married folks giving advice trying to tell me how to 'crack the code'. While there is a lot we can learn from other people's experience, they are never infallible, or applicable to every person out there.. the ONLY infallible source of wisdom is to be found in the Scriptures. There, we are commanded and encouraged to ask, keep on asking, and we shall receive - we don't have to 'trick' God by pretending that we don't really want what we have in our hearts...
@@NarnianLady Luke 18/Psalm 55 I will complain/ask every day and HE will hear my cry🤗
At least i hope so, but even so come God Jesus✝ 1 Thess. 4
I highly recommend not watching their videos if it puts envy or hate in your heart. That’s a heart problem, and I’m married now and although it’s a blessing, when you’re single you have a lot more time to spend with God, they are just giving good advice that it is good to use it wisely!
So lovely that you addressed this but people should just chill. You aren't machines that are programmed to perfection - you're human - flaws and all. The main point is that you're trying to inspire and spread the word. It's helping many. Love to you both.
I feel so bad that you are having to deal with comments like these. I would've hugged you and cried if I saw you in real life. Please don't feel discouraged :(
Sadie, your tender heart is evident and beautiful. I encourage you and Sam to forge ahead with sharing your experiences and His Word. Your honesty and vulnerability is appreciated. I personally understand your heart and your intention. It is obvious you two are humble and wanting to encourage others. Thank you, Sam, for starting this platform and, Sadie, for joining him. I am praying for you and also for Sadie’s health needs.
hey it's 4th of may here in Iran , being single is hard, being a Christian under a Islamic dictatorship with mostly atheists citizens who hate all religions is also hard , but hey , with the lord everything is possible, with lord there is always hope , be strong brothers and sisters cause ; it is a great comfort to know that , in the end there is light in the darkness
God JESUS/LORD YASOU bless abundantly HIS people in all Islamic countries, AMEN YESHUA.😟🤗✝
@@vijdamvsichko9077 thank you very much :) , in father we trust, bless you
Prayed for you 1 minute go. Indeed Jesus the light of the world.
@@ss.blessed5355 can't think of even one person in my life who would pray for me , so thank you , it means a lot :)
@@ulrohermit1369 🥺 I'll be praying for you as often as I can. I'm putting down your name in prayer journal.
I’m 28 and single. I totally understand and appreciate your message in both this video and the last. I know you have only good intentions and I enjoy hearing your singleness stories. I believe I’m still in my season of singleness because God is still preparing me for marriage and if He were to give me my person right now it wouldn’t be a good situation for either of us. God’s timing is perfect and I know that’s your message! Thankful for you both ❤
I’m sorry to hear that your previous video was not received well. I can see why people took offence as the message came from the perspective of a married couple rather than a single person.
But personally as a single Christian in my late 20s, I was edified by your message. It reaffirmed a message God has planted in my heart that I need to seek first the kingdom of God, not so that my needs are met, but that I can become more and more like the person He wants me to be. And He adds/removes different things to our lives to do that, one of those things may or may not be a spouse.
Keep encouraging those around you. We need more Christian content on UA-cam ❤
I’ve been rejected nonstop for 8.5 years. I’m not awkward, and there’s really nothing wrong with me. I have ambition, goals, and am working on myself to be the best I can be for the Kingdom. Godly women have never shown interest in me. It is what it is but I’m trying my best. I’m fine being single but I hate that I always have been single, so that’s the difference. I’m only 26 and already the last of my friends and family to be in this season.
What would you say to Someone who keeps getting rejected no matter what? It makes me not want to pursue Godly women
I will say this though, you can’t tithe your way to a spouse. That’s a pay to pray scheme.
weird! I always got the impression that single Christian women far outnumbered single Christian men, and so men would have a really easy time finding someone. I'm also 26 and have gotten nothing but rejection from Christian men...but for some reason, ex-Christian atheist men are all over me! Here's one piece of advice that I think the Lord has taught me from my journey: don't come across desperate. I think the reason why I never get accepted by Christian guys (other than that, in hindsight, it's clear we weren't the ones God had for each other), is that I look at EVERY Christian guy as my potential future husband and really try to win his affections and hang around him all the time, in a way that comes across really forced and is actually super offputting. Whereas, with ex-Christian atheists/agnostics, I sort of go into a hangout with the assumption that, oh, I'm NEVER going to date this person, so I'll just act natural and we can be friends and then they are really into me. Now I'm not saying to go and date a bunch of non-Christians, of course, but what I will say is...maybe try to not think of EVERY Christian girl as potentially your God-given wife, and assume that you are just meeting a new friend and you will NOT be dating this person. You'll find yourself acting a lot more natural and less desperate, and then maybe some young lady will realize you seem pretty cool and actually express interest. Wishing you all the best, brother. Being a Christian single in one's mid-twenties is not a fun ride :(
As superficial as it might seem, you also need to pay attention to how you look: fitness, grooming, clothing. I obviously don't know anything about you, but if one or more of those things are way off, that could be a reason for rejection. Those things are not superficial when you think about them after all, they signal that you're healthy, you take care of yourself and that you have your life in order. Also, like the other comment already mentioned, if you come off as desperate or needy, it will turn off girls very fast.
All fair and valid points. I’m about 25-30 pounds overweight where I’d like to be but I’m pretty active and outgoing in general. Not really desperate, just horribly frustrated.
Do you have a spirit of rejection? This is real. Google it. It will cause people to reject you. It's a spirit. In addition, women like confidence. A quiet confidence. I'm certain you will marry when your ready.
@@maryannvalerio9869 nope, men will always struggle. The only women that struggle are physically unattractive ones unfortunately. I don’t want to sound mean but it’s true. Women are more likely to be comforted by others and have the choice to distance themselves. Women can ask their friends to be introduced without sounding desperate. From what I’ve read regarding your comment, the Christian you have pursued don’t see you as desperate. It’s likely that they are actually cautious about misleading you if they are unsure about you vs the men of the world who think you’re cute but can get away with more if you allow yourself. So good job in keeping those men away, and be patient for the right man. I sympathize with you, but I find it funny when women complain about being single for a little while and claim to have trouble finding a man when there’s men out there who have been single for at least a decade and are more discouraged in finding comfort elsewhere because they are seen as desperate, undesirable, etc. I know a guy who’s 32, nice guy but a lot of people including the women in Church see him as someone with that made up ADHD and treat him like they feel sorry for him but never say I want to get to know this guy better. The women who are still single is by choice, the only women I sadly see struggle are the physically unattractive ones. Men on the other hand are seen like Robert Di Nero’s taxi driver if they are 30 plus years and single if they are shy or have a serious character. Most Church women from what I see love the trouble makers, or the ones that act like clowns. I joke but not to the extent that gets me noticed like that. I guess my serious attitude is my crime, all of a sudden I am seem boring. It might be my negative mindset but what else can I feel.
Hi I’m 36 and I struggle with hating myself and struggle so much with my faith and my walk with Jesus and I came across y’all’s videos and I want to thank you so much! They are uplifting and wish I could reach out and talk to y’all about some things or pray after
Im 37, never had a girlfriend, and lost hope in women.
Amen! Thanks for the transparency and vulnerability. Coming from awesome channels like Paul and Morgan, Ronnie and Mel, Nate and Sutton, and Sadie and Christian Huff, I've learned that they speak from their personal experiences and don't have it all figured out. I'm single, but it didn't come across that way to me. For me it was a reminder to seek God over seeking a wife. God comes first. Period. Love you guys!
Hey don't discredit yourselves...you have the same Holy Spirit as the "experts" so if that's what He wanted you to say then there's no need to apologize for it. I know that video was a blessing to me and so many others! ❤
You guys are a blessing! Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. If only u knew how many people you've have helped to get close to God...
keep on doing this great work fot the glory of God.
I'm 30 and still single and often wonder if God even hears me or knows my needs😢 but i have faith that he does and cares for my every need no matter how small they may be. I often wish God would just remove my desire to find a godly man...but God's will be done! Thanks for your effort of making videos for Christian singles God bless u both 🙏 💖 im so sorry to hear bout the the rude comments😢 luv u lots and stay sweet❤
Hi Evelyn! We’re very sorry to hear that you’re struggling 😔 but you definitely have the right mindset when you say His will be done! Just know the He is working all things for your good even if you don’t understand it in the meantime! We love you lots too! God bless you and thanks for sharing with us! 🙏🏻♥️
Thank you for the clarifying video! I agreed with most of your last video, and had no issue with it, and I agree with this one also! I think one thing that is hard is that y’all still got married VERY young, and so your single season just wasn’t even close to as long as many Christians who are watching. I’m a 25 year old woman, who’s very single, after my ex broke up with me after 4 years a while ago. the longer I’m single, not only do I get lonelier, but my biological clock keeps ticking, which makes the possibility of having many kids easily and naturally decrease. And I can’t even imagine how people older than i feel who are single! Ultimately, this is an issue with us viewers, and not y’all at all. I think you both have beautiful hearts. I think just be mindful of how young you really are, and how many of us thought we would be married at y’all’s age, but are still waiting many years later. So even being single for 1 or 2 years for y’all is just the tip of the iceberg for many others watching. We all have to trust God to light our own paths thru life.
Sweet Sadie, you’re in my prayers for your health and pray for you to be healed!
I really appreciate you both! God used you both and know not everyone took your video out of context. It was well needed and honest! Thank you both!
Thank you, Sam and Sadie, for making this video. This shows your humility and care for others!
It was really cool because before watching this video the first 2 scriptures sadie shared i had just read only an hour ago. I have been dealing with quite a bit lately and God has remained always faithful. You guys are great
That’s really cool!! Thanks so much for watching and for your encouragement 😊
I ve seen all your videos. There is something in your personalities that I like. The honest thoughts you want to share is very nice to see. :) ❤
I see your guys hearts. I appreciete your videos. Im single and struggle with being single. This video is very powerful.
I really appreciate this video thank you for sharing 🙏🏼
I'll be honest probably halfway thru your last video this is referring to I was offended and pushed thru listening to it, because there's pain in my heart to a degree, and disappointment sometimes that my story hasn't looked like yours at all, though that's what I've wanted for a long time. After several relationships including a failed engagement, I've grown jaded towards younger people who tell me "oh you just need to do this" etc. I know I need to still work it out with God, I have my highs and lows, I do trust the Lord. At 35 years old now I'm learning to be content in my singleness. God is good all the time, appreciate your willingness and transparency to share about this, God bless you two and don't be ashamed of where you're at in life!! Or your position, own it and be proud 😊
Thank you for letting me share 🙏🏼
The problem guys is that no matter what you say I'm 31 soon I'll be 32 and I have never had a relationship and nobody sees me and I really desire to have that special someone and I don't want to be and old lady surronded by cats and it seems that thats gonna be my future, is not the same finding love when you're young I feel like I have an expiration date and feel like a failure I don't want to find love at 60 you're lucky and have a privilege that many of us don't period. Just recognize you've been blessed and have it all and stop trying to tell us to have hope because some of us are tired of having faith and hope in something that maybe never happen, to pray for nothing is like lossing a baby the pain is the same
Do not apologize you are great and shine that light ! People are mean and you cannot take it personal ! Be you love you both
Being single sucks it been a very super long season of being single I just can't wait to the lord bless me with a good godly women 🙏
Just keep your head up❤️
I’m so sorry people took the wrong idea from that video. It was personally really encouraging for me as a single christian in my early thirties who is struggling right now with being in this season, so much so that I noted a couple of points down in my journal. To me it was a reminder to seek first the kingdom of God, and to hold the desire to be married with an open hand because ultimately he is what matters above everything else. Even if it’s his will that I never marry. Also to my memory, I believe you outrightly said in the video that one shouldn’t pursue God to get something out of him. Anyway, thought I should say. I’ll also make sure to check out those articles.
I agree, very well said D!! I enjoyed the 'part 1' video as well, and never took offense. Please keep the great content coming and do not be discouraged :)
They aren’t in the position to be giving reminders.
They DIDN’T wait. They got marriage EASILY while others have to wait, and they’re patronising them like married people always do.
That’s not encouraging and stop vilifying single for not agreeing with you putting married couples on a pedestal.
@@ChrissyChrissyChrissy333 but you don’t care about the discouraged single people.
Cause it’s not hard enough, you have to throw single people under the bus, belittle their feelings if discouragement, while glorying the married couple as if they aren’t glorified enough 🙄😒
Married people get praised DAILY. And you’re worried about THEM feeling discouraged.
Of course single people painted as wanting something from God even though married people CONTRADICT themselves by lecturing singles to seek God and THEN they’ll be automatically given marriage.
That goes along with their narrative that married people are more Holy and earned marriage. So they preach those steps, pretend they earned marriage though that, then
BLAME single people for following the ‘advice’. That’s EXACTLY what they described, married people DID that to get a spouse.
But it’s singles who are the bad guys. Who even said they were tying to get something from God? No one. But they are treated like heathens and their service is ignored even though it’s more than married people do.
I personally was encouraged, not because they're married but because they made some good points that I related to with regards to what I've been learning recently. Perhaps I shouldn't have insinuated that others shouldn't have taken it the wrong way, that's a fair point. I'd like to think that their heart behind it wasn't to be patronizing. It feels unreasonable (to me) to say that married christians can't ever comment or attempt to encourage single christians because they're married but maybe there are better ways of doing it. But yeah, for sure it can sometimes be patronizing or even discouraging.
I'm most definitely not putting anyone on a pedestal nor did I mean to vilify anyone. They're not better or more loved by God than you and I, just because they're married.
I can hear the hurt in both of your voices. I'm so sorry that people took your previous comments in the wrong way and misunderstood your hearts. You both have beautiful hearts and I love you both 💕. I'm praying for you and your viewers.
I’m sorry that you had to deal with those nasty comments (and if I was one of them I deeply apologize!). I’m very grateful that you’re giving single Christians advice on love, singleness, marriage and God. In fact, I was fortyunate to find you because the people in my are who are who was married wouldn’t give me uplifting and solid advice and the singles that told me to be content in being single were either secretly unhappy (like the woman who wrote the Daring Manifesto) or anti-love and anti-marriage in general (like the guy who wrote How I kissed Daring Goodbye).
I had to go back to the video being referenced and I genuinely did not see where the problem was. I got the message clearly. I believe that to the pure all things are pure. The hurtful comments probably came from people who have upheld really wrong beliefs for a longtime and the video brought conviction which was probably misconstrued as condemnation. Well done guys! Your videos have been a blessing.
The comments in the thumbnail are coming from an envious spirit.
Yeah, we don’t know where they’re coming from, but they were brutal! Welcome to the early club haha!
No. They come from people who have been single for decades and who are tired of newlyweds under 25 years old rubbing in our faces that they are better than us and that being single is a punishment from God for our defects.
I like how honest you are, I sometimes struggle to grasp why I'm still single as a young man Its hard to wrestle with those types of thoughts. I like how you encourage to introduce single Christian friends to other singles, something that is lacking in our society we need a higher Christian population lol, with that said please send me any single recommendations if you read the post 😉 God Bless
Hey guys! I honestly think those sorts of comments come from envy. I am single, waiting on God for a spouse and i have learnt a lot from your videos as they have actually encouraged me to seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness.
Your story is your story and i believe that when God does something good for us and answers our prayers He does it for His glory! Your videos always glorify Him and i pray He is with you in times such as this and that He continues to bless you for your obedience!
As a recommendation, i would love to see more videos on your personal walks with Christ including studying the bible, how to maintain a consistent prayer life and other helpful tips in being young and serving God.
God bless you both (I also pray for Sadie through her health issues and I hope she is doing okay after the car accident) 🙏🏻 ❤
Sam and Sadie my heart goes out to you two it’s unfortunate that you have to deal with negative comments like that I never saw your videos like that and I don’t rush to judgment on your videos you two are great examples of what a true Christian marriage should look like and I never once thought that you guys knew everything that there needs to know about that kind of thing, but you guys are going off of what you believe in so it’s sad that people misinterpret that or treat it was such disrespect that it’s almost sacrilege in my opinion so I highly encourage you to keep on doing what you two love doing and don’t let the haters get to you so much love to you both and I wish the best of luck to you all and God bless and I look forward to future videos.
We reject every shameful cover-up and refuse to resort to cunning trickery or distorting the Word of God. Instead, we open up our souls to you by presenting the truth to everyone’s conscience in the sight and presence of God. 2 Corinthians 4:2
A hot couple telling us to “just wait for your soulmate. God will provide” 😳🙄🥴
Hey guys been watching a lot of your videos recently and have been loving them I was going to ask if you had any tips on high school dating for Christian’s much love!!
Arrogant what you two are far from that! You are too sweet if that’s possible 😀 I been married twice. And two other long relationships in my past over many years now. Focusing on the Lord, by myself is what I suppose to be doing. I have grandchildren that come over. Now a 6 month granddaughter 😃 life can be beautiful when we set our minds on the simple things . Thank you so much for coming on here, your doing a better job than I would. 😊 so I love what your doing keep on encouraging! Love you like I you were my own.God Bless In Jesus name. 😘🙏 21:29
The way he looks at you is love 💕
I don’t think u really know how hard singleness is because you got married young. Though u were single for some years that’s only a few compared to some people. So a better statement is u can imagine it…
I bet they could have had more relationships just they had standards and didn't just date anyone. Like I dated lots of dudes and they sucked so I wish I would have just waited ha I honestly would have been single this whole time
Plus yah being single gives you more time to focus on God . Being in a relationship you gotta focus on lots more.
I appreciate, love and relate myself for the videos that you guys made. Dont get carried away by the hate comments and criticism you both face regards on the previous video. Lets Pray for those who don't understand cus they need a Holy spirit guidance in them to understand. ❤
Thank you for your support and encouragement Regina!! We just pray that people see our hearts and what we’re really trying to say!
I’m glad you both clarified your comments in the previous video.
It definitely shows that you care.
Your previous video for Christian single had pure intentions however it was insensitive. The fact is you both got married young and you probably forgot how hard it is to be single.
I think you should stay away from this topic except if your giving your testimony or you speak from a balanced point of view.
Praying that Sadie gets better but thank God she has a caring Husband by her side❤
Thank you @Tolu Flavour You have valid points as well.
Not sure why you guys received so much negativity. I feel like your message brought me closer to God, it gave me food for thought in a positive way.
Thank you guys and god bless
Well praise God that He used our content to help you! All the glory to Him!!
How do you pull closer to God when you're single and dealing with overwhelming loneliness and depression?
The million dollar question
Praise God for your Channel, and God Bless you Both, Sam and Sadie 🙏❤️
The enemy uses Singleness, and makes us feel like the proverbs verse.
Hope deferred, makes the Heart grow sick Proverbs 13 v 12
It is easy to type negative comments
As single people, many Married Christians, and the Church, make us feel that getting upset about our singleness is called "Lack of trust in God"
I have to say that I would hate to upset you both, and it would sadden me to see you both upset.
I call it Toxicmedia, or keyboard warriors, which many people are online.
Singleness is a modern illness it seems, and getting worse as the internet is causing damage.
It was easier in the old days to meet people.
Hey you all...i encourage you both to share more about Jesus and your walk with him coz that's the truth really changes many things...the more we focus on us and lifestyle,the more it becomes self centred..... your videos on Bible and homosexuality were awesome but only dating videos and things about yourself makes it more like others bloggers..... Just a suggestion
You’re definitely very right! We don’t ever want this channel to become like your average lifestyle and advice channel! That’s why we try to bring every video back to The Word of God, and the fact that without Christ, none of this stuff matters!
@Sam and Sadie it's because you are chosen and set apart for GOD'S ministry. Honour Him Who Set you Apart for His Ministry.Not every body will be happy.1 Peter 2.9
True don't stop.These times are desperate and need the Truth.God's Word.
😏Nice profile name and name of your ministry for HIM Bro/Sis.
Stay blessed and protected in HIS Hand, He and His Father are ONE.✝✝✝
Hey yeah dont feel bad this is no big deal guys lol, youre video was fine and it really ministered to me since I had a really really hard time lately with this current issue. I really resonate with Sam. THANK YOU Sam for doing this i really mean it, youre in your calling. Don't worry about money God will provide actually message me because I will partner with you and fund your videos. I make good money and you blessed me, God has called me to support The body of Christ. Let me partner with you and support you every month. Just make more videos
Thank you so much Sean! That’s really nice of you to say all of that! As far as supporting the channel, there is a donate option on our premieres and there is a UA-cam membership option on our channel page for you to join! We’re going to make a video introducing it at some point most likely, but for now I don’t think many people know about it!
@@samandsadie thank you for doing that yes make that video! And watch God provide above and beyond what you can imagine or think. I love my brothers and sisters in Christ and I’m exited to help.
The Lord is very pleased with those who serve him, and just like the book of Acts teaches, those of us who have extra should give to those who lack. We are a team in Christ.
Eventually you will have extra too, and you will be able to help those who lack too. Just wait God will take away all your reproach haha I’m excited for you. The devil will have to pay you back for what has been stolen
Also I believe God makes us fo through hard times so he gets our attention like he badly wants us to come to him dor help .
I am single, and I liked your previous video :-) I was not offended.
I see no smugness in either of you. Your love for God, each other, and your viewers is evident. But for some of those viewers, it's just very hard to hear, from younger married people, the whole "trust in God and draw close to Him" line we've heard for years now with no answer to our prayers for a spouse. It's not the right response from us, but even so, we might think, "easy for you to say because you're married!"
I would encourage you, not because your intentions are bad (they're obviously not) or you view yourself as better than singles (you obviously don't), to humble yourselves and see that maybe the answer for folks in the situation isn't always as simple as "be content." I know people who are married who were not content when they got married. But God worked with them within their marriage to get there, or is still working with them to do so.
Being content is the goal for every Christian, but it clearly is not the answer for every single person. However, singles should strive for that and go to God always just as couples should. But I don't have all the answers or I wouldn't have watched this or the other video. LOL
@BuraddoRun AMEN. This is also true. I have had many painful conversations about this topic with many married Christians, and many simply fail to see this... While there is a lot we can learn from married people, the listening and understanding needs to be mutual. The Body of Christ has enough divisions already, and the saddest I have seen, is not between different ethnic groups, or men / women, but the friction between singles and married people.
I appreciate your concern about me being a single Christian, I just want to be a God pleaser as much as I can rather than a man pleaser as it is written in Ephesians 6 :6 KJV Not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart;
I got what you folks were saying. Believe me therevarecalot of weak minded people out there in our faith and their hurting because their alone. I Believe They just vented their feelings on you guys for being brave to share your story and a lot of it was jealousy and envy on the viewers part. They were not strong enough to spiritually and emotionally understand they took it as you folks flaunting it in their face. I don't believe you owe anybody an apology. Their own conviction caused them to lash out. God bless you both....
Just like kids and there parents they woild love to guve there kids candy and let them stay up late but they love them to much to ler them do that. So as God does rhe same for us
I thought your video was very great advice
Remember Luke 19.31?
Whose instruction did the disciple follow?
Whose answer did they give?
Was the donkey withheld?
And was God's mission accomplished when the donkey was let go?
When under God's instruction,dont fear or please anybody. He is waiting for you to bring the donkey for His Service.❤❤❤❤❤May He speak to you
Dear anyone desiring a partner,
There is a reason for everything---absolutely everything. Most times it's beyond our understanding. Sacrifice your worries to Him and trust his timing. Use your singleness as a time for self growth. Whatever traits you want in a partner, make sure you also have those traits. Become the absolute best version of yourself and fall in love with every aspect of who you are. Eventually you'll be ready to step out of your comfort zone and mingle. Every pot has a lid and there is someone out there for you, meeting that person at the right time in your life is crucial. There are people who meet the right person but at the wrong time and the relationship can't thrive. When you meet the special person, you'll value them even more because you had to patiently wait to be with them.
Many of us have been out of our comfort zone for decades.. it has not brought us the blessing of marriage.. at this point I believe it is by God's direct divine action alone. If the potential man is not willing, then nothing I do or say, can make him change his mind.
Also disagree with the idea of having all of the same traits in myself... isn't the idea of partnership that we complete each other, in our different strengths and gifts? I sure don't want to have a masculine body or soul..! 😃
@@NarnianLady I believe that there is luck involved with meeting the right person. Luck comes when preparation meets opportunity. As far as having the same traits that you look for in a partner, I was referring to characteristics like kindness, patience, honesty, etc.
@@NarnianLady I see... you are a virtuous woman Proverbs 31 and surely born Again by the Holy Spirit of CHRIST John 3👍

@@NarnianLady😏 Lord bless you DOUBLE.🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Woah. I’m early.
Hahah indeed you are 😂
🤗🤗I like and the first video, but this video is even better. God JESUS got you both.✝✝✝
See you in the Heavenly Kingdom of the Lord Jesus Christ.🤝 John 14:2,3
I try to say this in love, but SINGLENESS IS NOT AS GOOD AS MARRIAGE. Do you think God said it is not good for man to be alone for nothing? Also, hope your medical issues are sorted!
This makes me sad! I completely understood what you meant in that other video. We will get a spouse if it’s God’s plan for us! Yes, we need to grow closer to him in singleness because how can we have a Christ-Centered relationship before having a genuine relationship with Christ. I felt the video was meant for me because I completely understood your video. I think people are viewing this from such a jealous spirit because they are still single. Instead of being upset about being single, pray and grow closer to God! Buy journals and prayer books and grow closer to God to become who he needs you to be to better his kingdom and the gift of marriage if it’s in your plan that God has for your life! I think people need to understand and learn to be okay with being single and accept that they may be the ones in this world that will not get married. Pray and talk to God about being single and how you feel! Ask him to reveal things to you and help you understand why you are going through the season you are in. I pray daily that God helps mold me into the woman, wife, mother, and daughter that he needs me to be so I can obtain every blessing, not just my husband but God's blessing for my life.
God Bless everyone!
They are married just because they both are hot. And we are single just because we are not hot and rich. It has nothing to do with God's plan.
People are just negative and quite frankly seem envious!😂 like how did they come to all that conclusion from watching that video, like genuinely how?
We have no idea 😂
Jealousy
I think it’s best I avoid these types of videos. I’m staying faithful to God but seeing couples brings out my depression and jealousy, it’s best I avoid them completely. God bless both of you though, but I’m keeping my distance.
I feel you on this
Im sorry you got so manny hate comments. I think a lot of them come from a place of frustration and/ or imaturity. Eveyones journy is different. Its hard though to see others with something you want and did nothing to deserve its absence. You did nothing wrong. Remember what God has called YOU to do.
Those comments come from people who have been single for decades and who are tired of newlyweds under 25 years old rubbing in our faces that they are married because they are better than us and that being single is a punishment from God for our defects.
People are so damn sensitive. Leave them be.
Also Guys many people especially Christians who God is disciplining in this area like myself lol will misinterpret you and Gods word because of the deceitfulness of sin. Just preach the word like you did, study to show yourself approved so you are convinced about what God has shown you are not searching for confirmation from the comments, because people are confused here and this isn't always a great place for confirmation. Share the Bible with people and your experience is a testimony in fact your experience is very very biblical, I could go more in detail but it is. I saw your testimony on how you met and it Has God all over it, for example, God brought Eve to Adam, Rebekah to Isaac, and Sadie to Sam. Moreover, some people are called to be single, some are called to be married so you are correct. And its true the scripture is clear that being single is preferred for serving God, but for some people because of their specific situation and lust, its better they marry according to Paul. So both are good, and God is the match maker, or match breaker. God gives us the desires of our hearts when we delight in Him. Like Sam sought God and went out of his way to do Gods will, and look! God brought YOU SADIE. God always rewards, God is Good and rewards those who diligently seek Him. Your testimony is God, and its right. This subject is full of confusion, and your testimony is helping to bring clarity back to the scripture. So just keep studying scripture, so you can show yourself approved and be confident and happy about what your saying and say it sharply. The WORD OF GOD is sharper than any two edged sword, if you want to say this message better, just use more scripture when you say it!
Amen!! You’re exactly right about Scripture, the more backing that we have from Scripture the better an argument we’ll have for what we’re saying! I think we’re starting to do better about that recently! God bless you! 🙏🏻

For some people singleness is happier, like Paul mentioned. And for bishops / pastors it’s better they marry according to Paul.
So it depends on your specific kind of ministry, Jesus also mentioned how some people are called to be Eunuchs.
So yes some things are better than others but it depends on your gifting and your calling. Because what’s better for one person might not be for another. Like for me God told me that I need to marry before I begin my ministry, and to me it’s obvious why it’s because of my lack of self control in lust throughout my life and walk with him.
And it’s my fault for that, but also if I was more obedient I believe like Paul I could go without marrying and do an even greater ministry by myself because of how I could carry more suffering for Christ. But I’m no where near that level of humility and love, and I would rather be married. But God knows and God decides what we should do.
But Paul and Jesus and most the apostles were not ever married and did great things for God. The prophet Daniel was a eunuch too, it’s not for everyone but the ministry of singleness is for those who can bear it. Because like we all know it’s a constant level of suffering to remain single especially when you’re in the ministry. So we should not forbid to marry, but being single is also still better.
If you have to make a video like this, explaining yourselves you have definitely gone on a wrong way.
I just dont care anymore. Im pushing 33, its too damn late and im sick of married couples thinking they know anything about what its like. God played favorites and gave them a spouse early and the rest of us get nothing so i dont trust married couples thinking they can lecture the rest of us. Im over it.. guess ill end up just like my parents; alone and with no one. My bloodline dies with me and my father will never get grandkids and my mother long gave up and stopped praying for me...
Agree with you. From which the truth is deduced, that God is neither just nor merciful. He rewards some with all the pleasures of the earthly world and punishes others with a life full of unjust suffering.
Also again how do tou know iits your time. Maybe yiu gotta learn patience first and get through thjngs before youvget your spouse.ppl get married at 40 50 even . I think its better to get married to some one good than having just some guy or girl that's okay just cuz you want to say your married
I watched that video and it was fine. Unfortunately your going to get alot of trolls on UA-cam.
Singleness is the best life.
Cope
Yes. Like they did, right?
Tell Sadie to stop reading the comments women are too emotional for the internet. people nowadays allow their singleness to turn them bitter edit: and now as I am watching more I would suggest you get thicker skin as well your channel WILL continue to grow there is no way you can get everyone to always agree with you its a fact of life. Please don't make another apology video it makes you seem less committed to your views.
More patronising married people lectures!!!!
And they can’t see it! I wish married people will just be quiet.
Ypu guys did nothing wrong.Thats on that person and their brokn view and way for hearing things through a broken view.God help them see and hear
Neither of you know how “hard” it is to be single. Try being in your 60’s & been praying for a Godly spouse for close to 40 years, but still single.
Unfortunately, many married people look down on singles, & do not make much time for them.
We're a pariah to them. They want to pretend we don't exist. Churches are the same and nothing we do or how hard we try, nothing will change.
You will always have haters because you’re helping the Kingdom of God, your humility will be blessed though and please keep shining your light don’t hold back!! The enemy hates it but true children of God should not be getting offended! Love you guys!!
Yeah paint single people as ‘haters’ because they don’t enjoy your idolatry. So it’s actually YOU that is offended. Hypocritical, common for married people.
Do some actual service instead of showing off and then vilifying single people as not ‘true’ Christians. Single people don’t help the kingdom of God but they spend more TIME while you make little videos and have sex, then complain about lack of time 🙄 victim wannabes
I don't believe that season of singlness for a second. Getting married younger is better it's a fact. yeah you're not perfect but you've grown with this person through your struggles and you're not supposed to be perfect to be married because let me tell you, you're never going to be "perfect" and ready for marriage. if you're over 30 and still single there's not much point in trying anymore. Your "season" of singleness is not a season, it's a lifetime. Take the hint. This is coming from a Christian who is single too and over 30. If God meant for you to be married, you would have been married in your 20s. Harsh reality is that most Christians will die alone. I know what I'm saying seems hopeless but you have to find God through it.
Yes. Marriage should be a mortal sin and be forever forbidden.
The heart of those people are very telling …they sound bitter ..why would God send you a spouse if your heart is bitter and you are inpatient ? I get singleness is hard but better to wait then to rush it and marry someone God Does not approve of . I know bc I’ve done it and all that will do is make you even more bitter bc marriage is already hard doing it with someone who is not Gods best is a death sentence (spiritually , mentally)dang near
So singleness is a punishment from God.
7:37 With all respect, but here is where you go wrong again. You're saying 'deserve marriage', as if it's some kind of icing on the cake. It's not. Read what Paul says about it, please. It's not a promotion. It's a different civil status.
Get off the couch and go win souls.
Amen Sister, but God the Holy Spirit wins many souls through youtube/i-net as well.😌 We must share the Gospel Acts 13:48
The words are important whether face to face or through message/video/chat.
God Jesus said that the WORDS which HE speaks are a life...🧐✝
And His disciples said to Him: Where we can go? Only YOU have the WORDS of |Eternal| Life.🎯

But no let’s patronise singles!
