Marry? Not Me!
I know I have spoken on this matter numerous times. I realize some of you have grown weary of hearing it. But, I find myself even more convinced. I don't want to marry, ever. I want to be sold out to God and God alone. I started dating for a time to test this theory. It only proved what I thought all along. I want to stay single. I find complete fulfillment in God as a lover. I know this is a foreign concept to many Christians. Even the people who know that the scripture uses bridal language still don't fully embrace its beauty. I know I am extreme in my understanding. People think I am weird. It doesn't bother me. God has revealed a deep truth to me. His love will fight off all the skeptics. God has been so intimate in the last few months. He has given me dreams, scripture, and melodies that pursue my heart. I want to be His and His alone. I'm infatuated.

you go! The problem is that people do not understand that marriage is about God. Not personal fulfillment or happiness, it is about God revealing Himself through human covenantal love. Paul speaks about this in Ephesians Marriage is no end in itself AND it is not a permanant covenant either it is over at death. Follow your passion and have no regrets!
I think that is a just fine attitude and desire. So long as it is of God it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks.
