Everyone around me is in a relationship and for the first time in a couple years, I'm the single friend. I took for granted having someone to talk to at the end of the day. Sure my best friends and my family will always be there for me, but at the end of the day it was always nice to have someone to talk to about the good and bad parts of the day who would listen to me and support me.

It was nice to have someone to tell all my secrets to and someone to tell me theirs back. It was nice to spend the last parts of my day talking to someone who truly understood me.While I might think I miss this from being in a relationship, I also realized that I have this every night with someone who cares about me, knows the real me, and wants the best for me. Someone who knows me no matter how many walls I have up and someone who loves me unconditionally.

That person in my life is God. He is there for me at the end of the day to listen to my highs and lows. He is there to guide me when I make decisions. He is there to love me unconditionally. So while these things can be found in a relationship with a significant other, these things are also found with a relationship with Jesus Christ. You don't need a relationship to feel loved or to go to someone after a long day with your tired heart. He will always be there even if you do have a person to go to at the end of the day. He is always there to love us and support us.

So when I think I start missing this part of a relationship, I can rest easy knowing I have an even better relationship with my Heavenly Father who will never abandon me. He will lead me where I need to be and always has my best interest in mind. He will never hurt me.
