‘Loneliness is a required course for leadership’- Elisabeth Elliot
           A true leader must have enough backbone to stand alone - even when the crowd wants to take the easy road home. A true leader cannot be dependent on companionship for his or her security, but must learn to trust God alone. Singleness can give us this kind of backbone - courage, confidence, and leadership skills that any effective Christian must learn. (When God Writes Your Love Story, Eric & Lesly Ludy)
