Knocking on doors the Lord clearly shuts for a reason, we embark on a pursuit for a help mate based on the wrong motives. Thinking we are head over heels in love, we get trapped in an unbearable circus of pain and regrets. Marriage, being a lifetime journey, requires fervency in prayer and keen attentiveness to the Holy Spirit’s leadings when making the right spouse-choice. Let's not take marriage at face value and be intentional in seeking the Lord's face concerning it. In the end, we'd be glad we waited and followed God's leading.
God bless you!
pray without ceasing
