Lady in waiting.

That is a book's title by Jackie kendall and Debbie Jones. A few months ago a church friend, Novia, recommended me to read this book. Both of us involve in the same ministry in a young mature single community in our church. As a young single lady, sometimes waiting can be very challenging, especially in this information era almost everything are instant. Somehow we also want God to fulfil what we want right here right now, regardless we are ready or not. This book has given me a lot of new perspectives how to be a Godly woman while waiting for prince charming.

The most important principle that I learnt from this book is "my earthly father, my future husband, or anyone else could not provide security--only God can". Hence, we have to put our hope in God not in human. Let's God make everything beautiful in its time (Ecclesiastes 3:11). A very recommended book to read !

Preview from the authors.
This is not just another book for singles! With humor, honesty, and biblical truths, the authors help point women to being the right woman and not just finding the right man. By studying the biblical character Ruth, women learn the characteristics that every woman of God should develop. Learn how to become a lady of purity, faith, contentment, patience, and more as you pursue a personal and intimate relationship with Jesus. You'll discover that only a relationship with your Heavenly Bridgegroom will satisfy!
