The Lord has His plans! Thus He made us and has a reason for what He did and does!
One of the things He does is teach us. He is the Teacher. So He made us and He develops us also.
So what of marriages? Not everyone gets married and the Lord talked about their being eunuchs of different types. So if someone is thinking they don't want to get married, fine. Then again, it was also said that what God puts together, let no man tear apart, and that concerning marriages. Also concerning marriages, there was something about God allowing divorce because of our hard hearts.
Considering all that, what are we supposed to do???
The answer is that we are supposed to seek the Lord and listen to what He has to personally say to us!!
Now we don't do that - not like we should. We are rebellious so don't want t listen to Him.
Is 30:9 For this is a rebellious people, false sons, sons who refuse to listen to the instructions of the Lord
So need to try and not be rebellious, and instead seek our Lord and His instructions. Does He tell you to just 'fool around' in relationships with the opposite sex? From my experience His opinions are pretty much exactly like you read in the Bible. He broken into my life when I was going through a divorce. He did not like the fact that I was going trough a divorce. He had made efforts to get into my life before that, but I had just chosen not to pay attention to Him. The divorce gave Him an opportunity for Him to get my attention, but that only meant I should have paid attention to Him early. The divorce cost me and had many effects that I did not want, but at least I learn to seek Him because of my mistakes.
I wanted another person to share my life with, and in time He set it up. He then used that and my current relationship with Him to teach me many things!! Things like the value of telling another person that you love them. I loved my first wife, but I rarely told her. There is great value in speaking the right thing. That doesn't mean that I never have argument with my current wife. But those give me opportunities to learn more about forgiveness, about watching my tongue, about continuing on an developing a relationship. about many faults that I have and need to work on, about how to handle faults in others correctly, and I could go on and on.
So what of someone saying they don't want a relationship because of the problems that they saw other have with those relationships? Are they not missing the fact that they may have something to learn by perusing a relationship.
