Welcome to the Storytellers Live podcast where everyday women share real and personal stories of encounters with God.

I'm your host Robin and I am here with Dawn, Katie, and Lindy.

And it's our prayer at Storytellers Live that you would meet God in a new way through these stories,

that you would know you aren't alone and that you can discuss these

stories with friends so that walls are broken down and community is built. Y'all are in for a treat

with today's story. We have Jenna from Statesboro, Georgia, and we loved her. We laughed. But what I was

most excited about is that for a long time, you all have

requested a story on singleness. And we have one and we're thrilled. Katie, tell them about it.

And she was just incredible as she shared her story. Jenna's actually, she's 36 years old and she

just talks to us about her life of being single, but all God has taught her not only about herself, but about him.

And I think whether you're single or you're married, you're going to find this story is going to

give you encouragement in trusting God's timing for your life, but also just a sweet reminder of

the importance of surrendering our life to God. So here is Jenna.

Well, hey, everybody. Thank y'all so much for coming. I am so excited to be here and so excited to have an opportunity to share my story. And I'm actually going to start

my story off with a little mini story. So about three years ago this time, I was going on a road trip to Charlotte, North Carolina

to visit some dear friends.

And I was doing, you know, all the normal things that you do, getting ready for a trip.

You know, stopping to get gas, I had gone to Sonic.

And I, obviously, got to get a drink for the road.

And I had pulled out my phone to pull up, you know, GPS to get the direction. So I would know where I was going and also to text my friend to say, hey, you know, I'm going to, I'm getting on the road and I'll be here at, you know, such and touch time. So I pull out the phone, you know, put in her address, got all that information, and I went to text her and started typing in basically trying to say, hey, I'm leaving now and I'll be there at Suss and Touchtime.

But my iPhone or my smartphone, so speak, did what it loves to do best, which is correct words into something that is not that

short I was trying to say I actually said the right word but it wants to change it
