In the inspiring tradition of The Lady, Her Lover, and Her Lord, Bishop T. D. Jakes delivers a compassionate collection of scriptural verse and empowering wisdom for all women still looking for love, searching for their own divine worth--and longing for a connection with the Lord. If you're a single woman, chances are you have concerns about your life and where it's headed. You may be struggling with loneliness, wondering if you will ever find Mr. Right. Or if you are in a relationship, you may be dealing with issues of commitment, fidelity, sexuality, and intimacy. Now, with inspirational and specifically chosen Bible verses and passages, as well as his own personal understanding and insight, Bishop Jakes guides you through the joys, and sometimes overwhelming hardships, of being single--touching on love, sex, forgiveness, temptation, and other topics that affect your life--all the way directing you toward a stronger relationship with God. Promises from God for Single Women is a vital handbook for navigating the complex path of being a single woman in today's world.
This is an easy short read and has very comforting words for single women. It addresses many common concerns with scripture and solid biblical advise. It's been a real blessing to me.

Perfect for the over 30 and never engaged/married gal

If you've never been proposed to,all relationships ended before six months,never been "the One" but always "the Other one", hit 28+ and have it all but the boyfriend/husband and kids, treat guys way better than a lot of wives and girlfriends do, have been told by unavailable and available guys you are awesome but you are still single, this book is for you! It does take the Christian stand point so for those who aren't Christian inclined might find some solace if they open themselves up to it. It's for us gals who have tried and failed in so many ways, even sleeping around when we gave up and did it for gettin' ours. We aren't going to hell for our actions he basically says. Instead he says to leave it to God and heal ourselves on the inside which is VERY hard to do but do it anyway.

I LOVE this book. Very inspirational, I have read through it over and over again, and sent messages from this book to my friends who were feeling down, sad, etc. It has scriptures and applies them to our everyday struggles and concerns in the wonderful way TD Jakes is known for. I highly recommend it!
Perfect for Devotion for Single Women

As a single woman, I experience a lot of emotions, and I wanted to be able to turn to the Bible for direction from God how to deal with the flesh, loneliness, enotions, finances and so on, and it was often difficult for me to be lead to a good scripture that would relate to any issue that I was dealing with. This book helped me so much. I think T D Jakes is a wonderful man of God, and God has blessed him to help women like me even though I don't belong to his church or know him personally. God lead me to his book.
