We had a surprise wedding during the service last night. A young man, on his way for further Army training, stopped by to marry his sweetheart. It was simple and nice. It was the first wedding in our new building.
My prayer has been for a revival of marriage in our church. For young men to find the courage to court the girls who interests them. For young women to be interested and willing to be a wife and find fulfillment in serving.
We used to take marriage for granted. But in my lifetime marriage has been under attack. The Devil has targeted marriage. The Left has despised and undercut marriage. Only older folks seem to view marriage as something to be desired and cherished.
Pastor Rubi preached a sermon on marriage. It was refreshing to hear the Biblical truth about marriage.
Dating is a cheap imitation of courtship. Dating is a distraction and a source of temptation. Men and women cannot be just friends. Get married and let your spouse be your friend. Men and women only have one thing in mind, and marriage is the key that unlocks that door.
A university degree and a successful career is no substitute for the joy and peace and satisfaction you find in marriage. A pet is no substitution for a spouse. Being married is the best and the hardest thing you will do in life.
