| Growing up you had your whole life planned – that after finishing high school, you would go to university, find a job and get married at 24. One thing many forget is that destiny is in God’s hands. There are some relationships you get into thinking they will lead to marriage, but after four years or more they don’t work out. You meet someone new again and start all over, push three years and break up, and years are moving. Then your friends start getting married and all you do is attend their weddings year after year. You give up on love and you decide to stay single for a while and you are not growing any younger. Pressure starts mounting from family, friends, church mates and everywhere around you. Whenever they see you they ask about when you getting married. This is a season where most women make the mistake. Due to pressure of wanting to get married, they end up forgetting their value and worth and start being desperate for love. They rush to get married and end up divorcing because of abuse in that marriage. One thing every lady needs to know is that God created us in his image and he loves us. God knows that you want to get married and when the time is right, he will make you get married to a man who will love you the way Christ loves his church. Everyone has their own purpose and destiny in life. We should not compare ourselves with others. When they get married, be happy for them because it is their time. You may find yourself being the only one left out and not married in your circle of friends, but do not worry because your time is coming as well. Putting yourself under pressure only hurts you. Never do things to please people because you will never please everyone. Strive to please God who is the creator of everything and your life will take a new turn. Love yourself and love God, he will bring a suitable husband for you. Marriage is a great thing when you have a partner from God. Trust in the Lord and pray that your desires are according to his will. |
