You must understand that for most of you, you don’t need to wait to get married, but you need to fight to get married. I say it often that 1 of 2 things are going on. Either God hasn’t released your mate yet and it’s a matter of waiting, or God has released your mate and Satan is holding it up in spiritual warfare.
As you scroll through your social media feeds, it’s very common to see engagement photos, proposals and wedding pictures. It seems like so many people are getting married. Your friends, cousins, siblings and classmates all seem to be getting married. Naturally, you’re happy for them b/c you are in love with love. However, why does it seem like so many are meeting that special 1 and you haven’t yet?
There are times when dating when things don’t go according to plan. You may have found yourself in a certain position where you have been either waiting for someone to fully commit or waiting for someone to show that they’re interested in you. Wherever you find yourself on the dating journey, don’t give all of your time to someone who has shown you that you are not priority!
When dating in route to getting married, there are things you should do and things you should not do. Quite naturally, if you go in with the mindset that you are confident in yourself and that you’re not going to casual date, you’re starting off on the right track. One thing we should all agree on is that the 1 exists, although you might encounter some roadblocks along the way. However, there are some things we should talk about as far as what not to do before you get married.
Dating is something that has to be done before you get to marriage. Some may call it courting, but either way, you have to get to know the person through dating. Unless of course it’s an arranged marriage, but I don’t believe any of you plan on having an arranged marriage in the traditional sense of the phrase. The only one arranging it is God.
Perhaps you haven’t been on a date in a long time. Perhaps, no one has shown interest. Perhaps those who have shown interest have simply wasted your time. You may be to that place where you’re just sick and tired of being tired. You’re mentally and emotionally exhausted from this rollercoaster ride on the journey towards love.
You’ve waited and waited and prayed and prayed. You may be wondering what or even if you will meet the 1. You must realize that love is looking for you! Love is looking for you and it will find you in the 1 God has for you!
I know you don’t like the waiting game. You felt like you’ve waited forever for the 1. The good news is that they’re not far away. How far away you ask? The 1 is not far away b/c the 1 is already connected to you in spirit b/c God has ordained for you two to be together!
All change is not bad change, but if you find yourself changing to try to become who you think someone wants you to be or to try to force love, that’s not a good thing. You already know that you shouldn’t change to try to be who someone wants you to be. However, sometimes it’s subtle and you may not be aware of it. There are too many who are taking bad advice from friends and family to do things that are simply below their standards. There is nothing wrong with you.
I hear people say all the time that the dating pool is limited, and that there aren’t many good candidates available. Some say all the good one’s are taken. The list goes on and on. What you must realize is that when you say those things, you’re creating the atmosphere around you.
