Me: When looking back on your time of singleness what would you do differently now that you are married?
Jennifer: I would look to be single for God. To live purposefully as a single person.
Me: What life lessons have you learned from being married that could help singles in their season? How can we prepare for marriage NOW?
Jennifer: A man or woman will not “complete” you. Only Jesus can do that. So if you are waiting to get married to “start” living for God or start walking in your purpose, you are in for a rude awakening. Live now as though you are married – set apart for God.
Me: What tips would you give your daughters when preparing them for their single season?
Jennifer: If you are messed up you can’t be happy or make anyone else happy!
Me: How can you see God’s hand on your story?
Jennifer: I truly believe and received through many confirmations that Chris and I are supposed to be together. Although I know that God honors all marriage, I feel great knowing that God gave others the heads up about Chris and I. We didn’t start off with the perfect story or our eyes completely set on God but we came to a place where we made some decisions. We decided to pursue God with all we had, no matter what that looked like.
