Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows. - Luke 12:7
⠀
If God knows every individual hair on our heads, then surely he knows when we are ready to enter a marriage minded relationship. And this doesn’t only apply to you, but your future husband too.
⠀
Whoever your future husband is, God knows him more than he knows himself. He knows his strengths and his weaknesses. He knows what areas he thrives in and what areas he needs to grow in. He knows everything that needs to happen in his life prior to meeting you. We don’t know why God makes us wait and why our wait may last longer than others, but we do know that in the waiting, He is shaping and molding us and preparing for things ahead.
⠀
If you desire marriage, hold onto this. It is far better to wait for the relationship that was in the right timing than it is to jump into a relationship with someone who wasn’t ready. Strongly, healthy Christ-centered relationships take time and spiritual maturity. Waiting on this can be hard, but the reward is worth it.
⠀
As you wait for your future husband, pray for his spiritual journey. Pray that God strengthens him in all the areas where he needs to grow prior to entering a relationship with you. Find peace in knowing that God is preparing both you and him for the future He has in store for you.
