✦ MADE SIMPLE

Here's the difference between married and single women: When you're single, you can focus completely on God's stuff — keeping your whole self devoted to him, body and soul. But when you're married, you're naturally going to care about worldly things too, like making your husband happy.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

Single? You've got the freedom to be all-in with God without divided attention.
