🌱Singlehood is a crucial season for personal growth, where one should focus on developing academically, career-wise, and spiritually before marriage, while discovering one's purpose and calling.
🧠Use the single season to invest in yourself, read, learn, and grow, as it's a unique time that will never come again, aligning with the wisdom of Ecclesiastes 3:1-8.
💑Be intentional about developing your values during the waiting period, focusing on traits like forgiveness, caring, and parenting skills to prepare for your future role as a spouse and parent.
🧘♀️Learn to be content being single and alone with God, using this time to work on your relationship with God, deal with past traumas, and gain stamina and structure for marriage.
👪Parents should establish firm boundaries and rules at home while creating a loving environment that encourages open communication, allowing children to feel comfortable approaching them with issues.
📱Stay current with events and technology, as children can be influenced without leaving the house, requiring parents to be aware and updated on news and trends.
Spiritual Perspective
🙏Understand that marriage is not a reward for service to God, but a calling and assignment that requires work and commitment to reap blessings.
📖Remember God in your youth before difficult days come, as advised in Ecclesiastes 12:1-2, and serve the Lord while you have the capacity to do so.
