If you’re not certain of what God is saying, stop and wait. Marriage is not something to rush into. Don’t allow anyone to rush you or push you to decide. If the person is yours, they won’t run a way because you’re waiting for confirmation.
Remember this; God cares about you. He won’t deny you a spouse if that’s what He sees you need. And He won’t give you a spouse just because you think you need one. Perhaps being single is the best gift from God to you now.
You may meet your future wife or husband and like them at first sight, and that’s fine. Just make sure you know who they are on the inside before you marry them.
If you marry someone because of the hyper feelings of love and one morning wake up without the feelings, what do you think will happen next? Will you have fallen out of love?
Anytime a boy and girl pull away from the bigger group and privatize their relationship, yet they’re not ready for marriage, trouble is around the corner. They’ve ceased walking in the light and what they’re doing in secret will lead to unpleasant consequences.
In the name of love, lovers have left family and friends, stopped studies or left jobs. Others have killed for love or killed themselves. Isn’t it a marvel that a person you were not born with can become more special than the parents and friends you’ve grown up with?
When we love God, He transforms us into the likeness of Jesus. The way we view ourselves changes and, in the process, our view of others. As we become secure in God’s love for us, we learn to love others as God loves them and as we love ourselves.
The most important preparation for marriage is becoming the right person for your future spouse. Even in marriage, the only person you can change is yourself.Therefore, start working on yourself now. The more godly you become, the better your chances of choosing the right person to marry.
