"God Told Me To Marry You"
Printable Version
Does the above statement sound familiar to you?
Have you ever said that to someone? It seems to me that quite a
number of Christians, especially women, are telling the opposite sex
that God told them that he or she is supposed to be their husband or
wife.
Well, I just want to put my "two cents" in on this
subject and talk to the women. Girlfriend, God didn't tell you that
the fine single brother in the tight suit, sitting on your left in
the fifth row of the church is your future husband. I know, you have
been watching and noticing him during Sunday services, prayer
services, bible study, and you even noticed he was on the youth
mentoring program. You're thinking to yourself, he would make a great
father. After church, he always greets you with that perfect set of
white teeth and that masculine hug and a "whiff" of his good
smelling cologne and he always asks in that deep baritone voice "how
you doing sister"? Right now, you are thinking, "Oh, I know he must
want me".
After a couple of months of additional
surveillance, observation and research, that little voice you
hear is telling you it's time to tell him what God has been
telling you. Don't do it! God doesn't work like that. That
voice that you hear is your own voice. You are telling
yourself he is the one and he feels the same way. Honey, you
and every other single sister in that church heard that same
little voice and is ready to stake that claim.
You have to be patient and really listen to
what God is trying to tell you through prayer and meditation.
Yes, ask God for a husband, but ensure that your mind and
spirit are clear of the flesh. Believe me, when God tells you
something, you will definitely know without a shadow of a
doubt.
