"Love
is long suffering, and is kind; love has no envy,
love is not boastful, love does not behave itself
inappropriately, seeks not its own, is not easily
provoked, thinks no evil, rejoices not in injustice,
but rejoices in the truth; love bears all things,
believes everything, endures everything". 1
Corinthians 13:4-7.
This
scripture holds us to a high standard. In order
to hold up this standard and for a marriage to work,
we need to choose our mate wisely. To decide if
you are ready for marriage, you need to choose someone
you can trust and that you are equally yoked with
in all the key areas of life. You also need to know
what your responsibilities to the marriage partner
are so you can evaluate yourself realistically,
and take the necessary actions. We focus on a multi-week
course for couples seeking God's will for their
future and to prepare themselves for the marriage
commitment.
