I've been struggling with this for a while and I'm not getting anywhere fast. I want to have a relationship one day and its been hard. I've tried to be the best that I could be but it's not enough. I always go to sleep at night wondering if I'm good enough. It's always the other man that gets the favor over me. Its been a life long struggling and it's a lonely feeling for me to deal with. I have to be honest, I have a pigment disorder called Vitiligo and it takes away the pigment of the skin making it a pale white color. People have told me that it had nothing to do with my skin disorder but the people they have dated never had that problem. A lot of the problems that they have told me could be covered up. However, my problem can't be covered up. I can't control it, I want to be healed but it seems like it will never happen. I wish I could have been what they wanted but I can only be me. I'm a nice guy and dependable; they are comfortable being around me and don't have any trouble coming to me when they need me. I want these qualities to stay with me. I want my dreams to come true one day, to be with the woman that I always desired. I want peace in Christ that it will happen and it will be everything that I desired.

Many struggle with the same feelings of not being good enough and can relate to you, NeonZ.  The truth is that none of us are good enough apart from Jesus Christ.  Regarding your skin condition, everyone has something about themselves they would change if they could.  God created you just the way you are and does not make mistakes.  Try not to compare yourself with others, but be happy in yourself. 

Somewhere out there is a special someone for you since that is your heart's desire.  In God's time, you will find each other and it will be even MORE than you could ask or think.  Wait on His timing and you won't be disappointed.  God wants to bless His children more than they want to be blessed.  His love for you is more than the sand on the seashore--remember that!  Thank Him for your future mate, for your life, for creating you the way you are, and for allowing you to be given the opportunity to share an eternity with Him in heaven.  Rejoice in the Lord always!  ::clappingoverhead::

While you wait for God's choice in a mate for you , seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness.
May the Prince of Peace hold you close and reveal to you how precious you are to Him!

Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.

Amen Petals.

Believe me NeonZ we all as Christians singles go through this. However, I like what my pastor said Sunday, "if we chose ourselves we mess up and the situation becomes worse then being single."

we have to wait on Christ to give us the one. Check out G. Craige Lewis' dvd on being single, he really puts it in perspective using scriptures.

and faith can heal. Jesus can heal your condition if you just believe. its the belief that hinders our healing.

Love you in Christ,

Thank You both. Thanks for taking the time to think about me. It's been hard and I know it will continue to be tough. But I'm not going to give up until my dreams come true. Christ is my God and he will bring the balance. Dreams will come true one day and it will be in his timing. He can do it!

Petals

Praise God, yes He can and WILL!  The hardest part is the waiting, but that is where our character is developed.
