Gracefully Waiting: The Journey of a Single Christian Woman by stella ashworth
There’s a quiet kind of strength in the woman who waits, who chooses to trust God when her heart longs for partnership, yet the answer hasn’t arrived. Being a single Christian woman in today’s world isn’t easy. You’re surrounded by social pressures, timelines, and the echo of questions like “When will it be your turn?”
But in the stillness of waiting, something holy is being written. This season isn’t about passivity. It’s a sacred preparation. As a single woman walking in faith, you’re not “missing out”, you’re being set apart. God is not punishing you with delay; He is protecting you with divine timing. He knows the desires of your heart. He placed them there. And the right man, your godly, purpose-aligned partner, is not just anyone.
He’s someone who will love you as Christ loves the Church, who will cover you in prayer, stand with you in purpose, and cherish you fully.
In this time, you are becoming. You’re cultivating vision, wholeness, and joy that doesn’t depend on a relationship. You are learning to love your own company, to pursue your calling, to grow in faith and confidence. Your wait isn’t empty, it’s full of growth, discovery, and alignment. And when he comes, he will find you not desperate, but deeply rooted in your identity.
He will meet a woman who didn’t settle for “good enough” but trusted God for His best. So lift your head, beautiful sister. You are not behind. You are right on time in God’s divine calendar.
Keep showing up. Keep serving. Keep glowing. The wait will be worth it, because He is worth it and so are you .
