17 ACTIVITIES FOR CHRISTIAN SINGLES IN 2017!

hi everyone I hope you are all well welcome back to another video with me okay today’s video is going to be all about 17 activities for single Christians to do in 2017 because it’s a new year I just kind of want to put emphasis on the fact that you know there’s so much to be done as a single person take advantage of it this is a real recent revelation that I’ve had but I’m so blessed to have my freedom as I mentioned in mind why I travel so much video I mentioned that I travel so much because I’m single and like I want to explore the world and see and do a lot by myself before I get into a marriage or relationship where I may be limited I may not maybe I would be traveling and together with the person that I mean I don’t know take advantage I don’t see as a bad thing just see it as like a cool thing and something that you can really you just have sometimes in like we just have to take advantage of your situation take advantage of it this is the very word advantage big advantage of it because it is an advantage alright let’s dive into the point all right so the first thing a Christian single can do in 2017 is to travel yes to travel see the world meet different people explore expose yourself to something different when did I get a travel blog I got the travel blog when I went to Switzerland this was such a random like trip but anyway I didn’t go because I’m single I went because like I just felt so spontaneous number two is basically to work out get fit get into the best shape of your life and to get that body that you want that is what you can do number three is to learn a new skill cooking baking I want to start cooking I want to be able to cook amazing meals like meals that I’ve kind of X more experimental rather than just like a basic tomato based sauce with like rice I want to be more experimental with different spices and something back so cooking is definitely something you can focus on learning do in 2017 right number four is basically run a marathon sign up to the marathon sign up to something that requires you to kind of train the idol that was a great idea I actually did a marathon not last year but the year before I did my first marathon it was not the longest my phone it was like what 10 miles with 10k something like that number 5 is prayer and meditation now this is the year for you to kind of get closer to God and see what he has for you just pray like people always say you know prayer changes things prayer changes your situation pray seek God meditate a love meditating absolutely love it I love getting into the spiritual realm and really just listening for what God is saying number 6 in missionary work now you don’t have to travel all the way to Africa to do missionary work you can do it from your very country and from your very City it could be working with the homeless it could be working in the church it could be your own mission where you go out and you know make sandwiches for homeless people that is the great activity for a single person to do number 7 is basically to serve now this kind of ties in with missionary work but I need to serve is taking opportunities to bless people if you see an opportunity be like oh yeah actually that’s something I can do I’m going to take that opportunity to serve someone I don’t have to do it I don’t I’m not obliged to do it but I want to do it yeah now number eight is three what I had written down is self-help work self-improvement books books that will really make you feel like you’re you know working on yourself and achieving something you can read the self-help books all about preparation for your next season in life who knows what that season might be this future in the Bible which is proverbs 24 27 and I’m not sure if I’m going to quote it word for word but it prepares I work without and make it fit for thyself in the house and make it fit for thyself and afterwards build I house I’m going to write it down on screen just in case I’ve gotten the wording wrong number nine men a language I’m trying to work on this I love languages absolutely love languages I don’t know a lot of languages I only know English and I know a little bit of actually which is my mother tongue I know a little bit of French in the I’m not fluent at all but I can be fluent I can so yeah learning a language is another one number 10 tasks a business yes you can start business that thing that’s been on your heart for all this time that’s been on you in the back of your mind or maybe in the forefront of your mind something that you you haven’t had the courage to do take a leap of faith take a step while you’re still in this single season and give it all you’ve got this may be the thing that you reach over to in the end I don’t know but like maybe this 2017 is a year but you can start that business that you really wanted to start the 11th thing that you can do in 2017 as a single person is the cluttered you guys are mentally and physically make room for what is about to come into your life emotionally spiritually physically just make room for what what is next I loved the guttering a lot one of my favorite things to do I feel every time I’m doing I feel like I’m making room for what’s next getting rid of all those things that have been weighing you down maybe you feel like you wanted to leave the country but you have all this stuff and you can’t move because where you’re going to put it you’re going to have to hire some storage unit where declutter because don’t carry all that baggage into 2017 number 12 is to set some goals determine a strategy and just start working on the set goals if you’re not really one for setting goals make this year the year that you set goals as a single person goes that you like to achieve by yourself those that you like to achieve before you enter a situation where you are working alongside somebody in a partnership in the marriage and relationships something like that set those goals for yourself this year number 13 is to get closer to God now this one kind of relates to you my prayer and meditation and reading a little bit but yeah get close to God take the opportunity develop your relationship with him because ultimately that is the most important thing as a Christian practice discerning his voice practice hearing what his voice and sound like so that when it comes to making decisions you’re able to know like if the voice of God is this voice a negative voice but then again I’ve been good will give you a negative voice with a piece associated with with God’s voice that’s what I find so anytime I feel a piece about something it’s kind of God giving me comfort and telling me that yes you’ve made the right decision or yet this is the right thing so that’s how I kind of hear God’s voice number 14 is to forgive yourself forgive yourself all those wrong things that you’ve done all the things that you feel guilt about I don’t like the whole idea of guilt I mean obviously give me the thing is this but I feel like it is something that you shouldn’t be carrying around with you as a cross you’ve already paid the price so forgive yourself and move on another thing that comes hand in hand with forgiving yourself is loving yourself really take the time to love yourself pay more attention to yourself in maybe in your physical appearance or you know what’s on the inside write down things that you like about yourself and really don’t put yourself down this is the year that you grow will grow in confidence and that you should be getting yourself ready each thing that you do to improve yourself you’re putting yourself in a better position to meet the right person number 15 write a book yes you can write a book this could be an actual paperback book this could be a book this could be you just documenting your life story I think you’re always helped in focusing on what we are grateful for and our testimonies you know what our testimony is when we write things down when we reflect on what God has done in our lives write your life story channel all your creativity into text and just reflect on your testimony well maybe the book you want to write it might be fiction might be nonfiction I just feel like we all have a story to tell sometimes people you thought what the testimony also testimony and I’m just like well I’m nothing drastic happen to me but then I realized wait a minute my whole life is a testimony number 72 take a risk do something that makes that gays you it may be big it may be small do something that makes your heart go BOOM you know that makes your heart beat do that thing take a risk there we have it those are 17 things for Christian singles do in 2017 obviously if you’re not single you can still apply these to your life because you are still an individual of course I think it’s time to see it as a blessing if you’ve never seen a blessing more and more as the days and the months go by I feel like I’m really really valuing my position I’m really really seeing the blessing in it [Music] [Music] [Music]
