John 2:10. “Everyone serves the best wine first, and the cheap kind when people are drunk. But you have kept the best wine until now!”
You know the story about the wedding feast at Caana, and how the wine ran out, well Jesus could have just given the same type of wine again, but He gave better. The master of the house said “You have kept the BEST to LAST”. Listen here, you who may be hurting seeing good-looking and spiritual men and woman getting married off and you may be thinking what about me??
But take heart God always gives the best later on.
The more you have to wait then the greater the blessing and joy will be for you.
God is good at keeping the best to last, but some people don’t want to wait until last so they opt for something that’s half good.
Job had a real tough time, but God saved His best blessing until the end when He had finished refining with him.
Remember Abraham & Sarah, how they didn’t wait for the BEST but tried to help God a bit, it just isn’t worth it, they ended up with a child that wasn’t to be the heir and a lot of heart ache with it.
Wait for the BEST and don’t compromise.

I dunno, I don't like the idea of implying that people younger than me who are dating / married are somehow settling... I've heard anologies like this before and they work well if you're the one waiting, but it's kind of insulting for the people already hitched... I don't like the idea that I'm somehow defect because no one wants to date me, and I don't think it's fair to say that someone is then defect if they have someone that wants to marry them, regardless of age. But perhaps I am misunderstanding?

I don't think it means comparing yourself to other people, but rather comparing your past to your present. In other words, out of all the guys you're destined to meet during your lifetime, it's worth waiting for the best one to come along

Well I can testify to the fact that I did settle, early on, and ended up regretting it. No matter how hard I prayed God never healed my marriage, and looking back at it I can see why. I made a mistake, but I guess God has different plans for each of us.
hmm..not sure this analogy sits with me..I dont think marrying too old is a good thing...just as marrying too young is..sounds good and all..but to a person..not sure
