About Single: Not Incomplete: Finding fulfillment in a season the world tells you to rush through.
Girl, I get it.
You read the title and grimaced at another book on positivity during your singleness. In a world that worships romantic relationships, it’s easy to feel like you’re less because you don’t have one. For most of my life, I went from relationship to relationship believing this. Insert some plot twists, a season of singleness that lasted longer than anticipated, and I realized that maybe romantic relationships aren’t the ultimate worth definer. Perhaps our worth isn’t found in a love we feel the need to earn, but a Heavenly love that has always pursued us first.
So, what’s different about this book? This author’s season of singleness never changed in the course of its writing. If you’re anything like me, you’d rather throw up than read a relationship book written in hindsight by someone from the comfort of their blissful marriage. While those messages have their place, the people I found the most comfort in during my singleness were also experiencing it. My prayer is that this book can be that friend for you. All of these devotionals are written to the discouragement I experienced in this chapter, coupled with the Scripture-led realizations I eventually came to.

Author Bio:
Annie Mayfield is a 5x author, 3x Amazon best-seller, corporate executive, and host of the Made to Shine podcast – with listeners spanning 62 different countries. Her mission is to remind the younger generation that God gave them a unique light to shine in all areas of their life – at home, school, work, or hanging out with family and friends.
She’ll be the first to say that at the root of everything, Jesus Christ is her Lord and Savior. Life can be hard, and she recognized at a young age that following Jesus didn’t take away the hard but gave her a steady hand to hold as she walked through it. She fears so many young people have walked away from faith because of broken promises that God never made. With all her work, she aims to remind young adults they have a God that knows, loves, and fights for them. No matter how hard life gets, when you’re made in the image of a God that is love itself, you can never lose love. Annie’s next devotional, Single: Not Incomplete, comes out this fall.
