"Why is this called a gift exactly? If being single was such a gift why did God give Adam a mate? I’m really not understanding this concept. If I end up being single for the rest of my life I will not die thinking I had a gift, I will die feeling pretty sad honestly. I just don’t get it."I'm finding it very hard encouraging single young Christians to live a victorious life in Christ.....And to celebrate their singleness with understanding it's a gift for a season....As with most Christians we all know there is no greater Giver that our God Himself.

It's hard for many single Christians to view singleness as a gift...But according to Scripture, there are some gifts that God gives to all believers who have placed their faith in Christ.....(they will have eternal life).....However, not all of God's gifts are given to every believer....the Scriptures teaches, for example, that God does not give the same spiritual gift(s) to every believer....He determines which gift(s) He wishes to give to each believer, and in what measure.Take for example children......Children are consider a gift from God However, God does not give this particular gift to every believer....To some, He gives many children; to others, He gives a few or only one; to others, He gives none.....God has the right to determine to whom He will give the gift of children......So, when He grants this wonderful gift, it is to be received with gratitude. When He does not, we must learn to respond to His sovereign choice with surrendered, grateful hearts....Question why is singleness such a hard a gift to accept from God?
