She passively blamed her single status entirely on God
Excerpt from: “9 Things You Simply Must Do – to Succeed in Love and Life” by Dr. Henry Cloud
I have seen lives transformed when people begin to adopt the strategy of asking themselves, What can I do to make this better?
Miracles have occurred. I recently attended the wedding of a woman who had complained to me a couple of years ago saying, “I wish I were married, but God just has not chosen that for me at this point in my life.”
She passively blamed her single status entirely on God. It never occurred to her that she might do something to help him.
I challenged this woman to take responsibility and be proactive. God would help her, but she needed to give him a little cooperation.
Here is the exciting fact: she had been stagnant in her dating life for longer than it took to get moving and get married.
