I really liked that you both talked about insecurities. This is something I struggle with deep down, but I’m grateful that Jesus is helping me day by day, and He led you guys to share this to say, “You aren’t alone” ❤️
Love this, Sam and Sadie! ♥️ I used to struggle with faith that God really loves me but I could believe it for others. Satan really wanted me to believe that lie but meditating on God’s word - using the sword and memorizing Truth defeats the lies of the enemy. I think it’s important to stand on this truth as couples because it can cause major insecurity in relationships. Coming together with the security that when we repent, our sins are forgiven as far as the east is to the west. When we come to God, it’s like coming to Him for the first time. Although He knows we’ve sinned, He chooses to erase all of it. We need to do the same with each other because God says when we forgive, He will forgive us. ♥️
Thank you for another encouraging video!! ❤❤ Another insecurity that I think people (it might mainly be a girls'thing 🤷🏼♀️) struggle with is the fear of not being physically attractive enough. This ties in to the comparison problem, where a girl might think that there are so many other beautiful girls, so why would he choose me?
I feel the same way, another insecurity I have is that I will never good enough for a godly man. I see a lot of godly men on CZcams and I usually tell God that I’d love to be married to such a man, but then I tell myself that I’m still not spiritually mature for such a man.
When Sam mentioned being insecure towards meeting new people when you're Faith tags along DEEP in your life (wanting to find someone equally yolked and that shares a common Theological basis), I felt it was talking straight to me. I've been in this journey for a while... I'm 27 and struggle to find people who share my Faith. I've had past relationships that I'm not proud of, thinking that maybe I was asking for too much for them to be a Christian, or maybe I could be the one that God puts in her life so she starts beliving... I only got hurt along the process, and I now carry relationship baggage (regarding intimacy with my past relationships) that I'm afraid will affect my future wife (if God so pleases and He gives me one). It's nice to know I'm not alone in this process, and that there's hope out there. God bless!
Physical boundaries (and not just physical) is one thing that must not be missing in the life of the believer; especially that we must give no opportunity to the devil.
Great video :) I have definitely struggled with the worry that Sadie mentioned- there not being someone for me because they are taken already and especially the - I have to long and particular of a list. God has shown me though, that he does care about the small and big details alike, and that no task is to big for him. He is able to show just how intentional and specific he is with how he works in our lives and has plans for our good! I am a single mother of a little almost 3 y/o son. During my pregnancy is when I came to the Lord and I also have had that concern or insecurity that no true Christian man will want me because I am not pure or I have a rocky past. And the worry that someone may enter my life and not love my son as their own, the way I desire and need. Then I remember that all things are passed away and made new through Christ and that the enemy can whisper doubts into my ear all day; but Christ’s sheep know his voice.. and that discernment to cast out the enemies voice and tactics is SO POWERFUL! To remember who we are in the Lord and not who we WERE, and who the enemy would have us to be ( overly worried / untrusting / insecure in what God has planned for us) is not the plan we want circulating through our mind constantly. With everything going on in the world (trying not to get my comment removed) but everything regarding confusion of people’s true self, I had a little revelation a wanted to share because I think it somewhat pertains to this topic. The world is in an IDENTITY CRISIS BECAUSE so many’s IDENTITY IS CHRIST-LESS. That slight deviation may be a good topic to do a video on at some point if the Lord leads.. we as Christian’s must know God doesn’t make mistakes & with our identity in him his plans can fully be fulfilled in our lives including who our spouse is and what our marriage life will look like. That, at the end of the day casts out my worries. Also as you both said, the season with your friends in singleness is a special one looking back on it and I feel that way about my little man, I will never get these one on one moments back the exact way they are now once I am married and it’s so good to cherish every season God has us in while we are in it and not always be waiting on the next season! Sending love and prayers your way guys and HAPPY SABBATH.
I can relate - either meeting a guy I liked that lost interest, or attracting guys who don’t care about God. I can see God working in it though, because the closed doors close so quickly and obviously! He has got me waiting
The churches I dealt with in my 20s had no concern or interest in helping us grow in and accept our singleness as a time for growth. I became bitter about this situation and left the church for years. I returned a few years ago, but my life has accepted that marriage is no longer something I want. I just want to focus on God and getting my spiritual house in order.
I appreciate this video. I struggle to overcome my insecurities about my poor finances with the Devil tempting me to feel discouraged and disqualified from marriage because of that. God is telling me to focus on my spirit and the Word to fix that problem so I have to trust Him.
I was married for three years and sadly divorced 2 years ago. I'm a 29 year old women, all of my friends are married and have kids at this point, and I'm feeling more alone and isolated than ever. Dealing with singleness *again*, but this time without good friends by my side has been extremely difficult. I've been trying to date and God just hasn't come through in that area yet. That being said, my biggest insecurity/fear right now is being afraid I'll never be married again when it's such a deep desire of my heart. It feels like God is withholding from me. It's so painful. Also just have to say, you two are adorable. Keep sharing your hearts with boldness! 🤍
Yeah, that was powerful!😊 I don't feel my rib missing yet, yet here am I, (having subscribed after watching a video months back,) returning and loving your content especially that it upholds the teachings of Christ contrary to the popular Media. Surely this is helpful not just to me but to more people. If the Lord permits, I will share a link to your channel with a friend of mine who is older. We need this. Please keep doing what the Lord places in your heart, this included, and never get discouraged. You're making impact, and I believe that there is more growth and expansion ahead. Please keep giving the Christian perspective to all these to we who are coming up. And remain true to God all the way by the power of the Holy Spirit. Christs blessings be with you.
I'm 47, divorced single dad with two daughters, 3 and 8 years old. I struggle with not able to find any Christian ladies my age that have already grown children that don't want to date me because of my girls being so young.
Guys, first of all, God bless you and I thank you for this video. I was really driven by the Spirit to pay attention to this video in special. Secondly, I just wanted to hear more from you regarding the "too strong" and "comparing yourself" chapters lol cuz I'm kinda stuck in those two places and I wish I could hear how did you guys handle with them while still singles. Anyway, thanks a lot so far and God bless your life and your love abundantly! A Brazilian hug! lol
Wow thank you both so much for sharing your insecurities. I particularly loved and felt encouraged by the idea of God's sovereignty. Its so comforting to know that he has prepared everything. My insecurity is that I am not very funny or interesting so often when I find the person I am interested in have a close relationship with another girl, I feel quite insecure.
Whenever i have dated, i always get really insecure when they dont text back quickly. It sounds dumb saying it, did you guys experience that? I get all in my head and get emotional
Thank you both for this video ❤. I'm a big fan, may God continue to bless you both 💜🤍 Just want to ask, it's the will of God for relationship to be delayed in one's life and marriage as well. What of if you have gone through all the stages that God wants you to go, both still single? 🤷
I’ve been a little worried about dating because my parents are divorced. My dad lives a few hours away and we don’t talk a lot. Not that he doesn’t care about me but we just don’t really talk until I see him maybe like twice a year. Im worries that the guy will see that as a red flag or he won’t want to make the effort to meet my blended family. Ah…please, if you happen to be in the midst of getting a divorce and you have kids. Don’t do it. It will affect everything in your life and theirs and most importantly your relationship with God.
That’s exactly right. Parents that go that route often don’t understand just how big the consequences are for everyone. I wouldn’t worry too much about a guy seeing that as a red flag for you! Particularly if you tell him how much you hate divorce and don’t think it’s an option!
Please pray for me I have struggled with fomo on marriage, I have stumbled recently with porn to numb my pain and it’s really opened a lot of doubt of my identity in Christ, thank you and God bless
I will say on the past sins insecurity. Your sins do have consequences, and it is entirely possible that you end up unmarried because of past (especially sexual) sins. Even if that is the case though, the Lord has a plan for your life that will be 100 times greater than the you could ever imagine, and you will be used in ways not possible than with different past choices.
I really liked that you both talked about insecurities. This is something I struggle with deep down, but I’m grateful that Jesus is helping me day by day, and He led you guys to share this to say, “You aren’t alone” ❤️
We’re so glad The Lord was able to use this video! God bless you and thank you for your encouragement! ❤️❤️
Love this, Sam and Sadie! ♥️

Thank you Sam and Sadie❤️
Hahaha yeah I had to leave that golden line in there 😂 thanks for commenting 😁
I struggle with the concept that my physical boundaries will scare away guys. Even so, it is a blessing, but can be discouraging.
Właściwy facet rozwieje wszelkie obiekcje :)
Physical boundaries (and not just physical) is one thing that must not be missing in the life of the believer; especially that we must give no opportunity to the devil.
We completely understand the way you feel about that! The right guy will honor you though so be patient!!

We pray that God would bless you and that He would give you peace and joy in the waiting! ♥️♥️ Thanks for watching!
I appreciate the honesty and transparency. Love you guys!😁😁😁

aww ♥️ welcome to the YT fam!!
That’s just how I have always felt. That I am not worthy of anyone because of my past mistakes.
Please what was that inserted clip about "good old days"? I need to check out.

I love this video! I struggle with getting approval from guys and boundaries with the opposite gender.
PRAISE JESUS.
AMEN!
Thanks for sharing this!
Of course! And thanks for commenting Amy!

I am starting to help young believers both male and female to date, kinda match making
Please upload short videos and encourage us in short messages as well 😊 Short videos also helps in growing page hehe 🎉

Also what If you desires for your partner are godly desires. And a little bit of your own standard but not high standard, will God grant you that. 😄?
If you get to 40 without finding a wife it's all over for you.
