Quick Marriage


 When I hear people say they know if someone's marriage material in 6-12 months, my "Liar" meter goes off immediately because for one thing, you cannot know that fast someone's marriage material. People sound crazy when they make that statement because 6-12 months is the introductory period, that's the time where couples are getting to know each other. You're learning their likes/dislikes, their personality, and their outlook on life. You mean to tell me that you can learn ALL of that information in such a short time? I didn't fall off the turnip truck, I know better. It takes a minimum of 2 years to get to know a person, then shortly after comes engagement, then marriage. After being together for 2 years, then you speed up engagement and marriage because those 2 years of being together, you've established a foundation. A solid foundation ensures future success in relationships. A Facebook friend left an interesting comment that read (I'm going to paraphrase): It's a spiritual thing. If you have a solid prayer life, God can give you confirmation of someone being right for you. That's a real statement because when God gives confirmation of something, you know it's right for you and you won't have to 2nd guess. No sorrow will be added, no strings attached, just straight up confirmation from the Lord. Once you have confirmation, you can move forward with no worries, because you know someone's right for you because you took time to pray, and use discernment. Then & only then, can you speed up the process of marriage.
