I am already dating with an awesome brother who loves to serve and give.

 

I am so grateful that we share the same dreams for the Kingdom.

 

Awhile ago a brother talked to me, he told me that in looking for a partner in life he wants to find a sister that is willing to sacrifice for God. Means not havings any luxury in life. A sister who is willing to give up everything for God.  I am so encouraged by this.  I don't hear much of it now adays. 

 

If you are to be asked spontaneously "What is your greatest dream in the Kingdom" what will be your answer?

 

If you are a single disciple today do you still think of this?

 

What do the singles want now?

 

Do we still Dream and include God in those dreams?

 

What are we doing for our dreams?

 

I just want to know..

 

Thanks in advance..

I believe there are a lot fo singles with a dream and passion for God and His work.  Shortly after becoming Single again, I started to dream large things. (Read the book, Dare to Dream Again, it is incredible, written by an amazing Brother).  What was really amazing, is that my dream is one the would create a high level of sacrifice in anyone who would acompany me on it (my Dream involves finding a way to raise the support to spend the rest of my days using my Bio-med Equipment Technician training working for Hope clinics and such around the world.)  I had for the most part assumed that most Sisters around here where not interested in those kind of living conditions. I was blown away when on a date with an amazing sister (who since has become my girlfriend), I asked her what her dreams for God were, and she wants to use her interests, talents and past experience to help endangered children in areas like India and Africa.  So, there are both Brothers and Sisters who are willing to go anywhere and sacrifice anything for God's Kingdom, and to serve the lost and needy!!

When I was single (not a very long time ago, actually Smile) I first dreamed of serving my Bible Talk with my flat, I mean that my BT would gather in my flat. God made this dream come true. Then I found another dream: to help a brother lead a BT. This dream, too, was realised by God.

My dreams are not that big, I'd even say, "cosy", "home" dreams Embarassed.

I've still got one that wasn't brought to life yet: I dream of working for church (in Moscow there are not very many working for church since the church's budget can't allow many) and one more - to go on a missionary team now together with my husband)

Wow...great topic.

 

One of my dreams, is to start an inner city youth ministry and evangelize youths in Boston and New York City. I want to do this soon to help the singles ministry grow,and also to realize God's great plan for me.

Since 2003 I dream (seriously) that I'd like to lead the singles' group in my church. In this year this dream came true. I can hardly belive it...we have an awesome leaders' group and a group of great-hearted disciples. So I face the needs and I wish I had more time to meet them all! So my next dream is: to make this group grow in spirit and numbers.
