I greet you all in the name of our Lord, our blessed hope soon to come.
I’ve seen a post here by a brother complaining about his wife, it’s understandable and these issues are not new in fact, Jesus’ disciples once asked Him why should they even get married if marriage was like that. Christ went ahead to say this:
[CENTER]But Jesus said, “Not everyone is mature enough to live a married life. It requires a certain aptitude and grace. Marriage isn’t for everyone. Some, from birth seemingly, never give marriage a thought. Others never get asked - or accepted. And some decide not to get married for kingdom reasons. But if you’re capable of growing into the largeness of marriage, do it.”
Matthew 19:11-12

The Apostle Paul, also advised the unmarried and widows not to get married, to stay as they were;
[CENTER]Now for the matters you wrote about: It is good for a man not to marry. But since there is so much immorality, each man should have his own wife, and each woman her own husband.
1 Corinthians 7:1
I wish that all men were as I am. But each man has his own gift from God; one has this gift, another has that.8Now to the unmarried and the widows I say: It is good for them to stay unmarried, as I am. But if they cannot control themselves, they should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn with passion [/CENTER]
[CENTER]1 Corinthians 7: 7-9
[/CENTER]
So I urge you all to do what is right before God’s eyes, if you feel that you are mature enough to get married don’t do it, and that isn’t a ticket for sexual immorality. Marriage takes a lot of sacrifice, patience, and understanding. And to those who feel mature enough for marriage, go ahead on, because that was His original plan.
May the good Lord Jesus Christ be with you and your families, amen.
