God's Help When You're Single and Waiting

Sometimes being single is not all that it’s cracked up to be. There are many benefits to having someone in your corner. After all, God created us to be relational creatures. The evidence is found in Genesis 2:18 (BSB) when God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make for him a suitable helper.” It was God who established the covenant of marriage between the man and the woman, and blessed it as “good” as he did all of creation. Everything was idyllic for the couple until sin entered their paradise, and the two fell from grace. Cast out from the perfection of their safe surroundings and the presence of God, the couple had to learn to live in a dark world. Over time, they began to look at each other differently. Sin had clouded their vision and understanding of one another. They started to question the suitability of their choice of partner. The nagging question behind their speculative gaze was, “Should I have waited?”
In a culture of rapid and multiple dating, how does your faith in Jesus Christ guide your ability to make choices when it comes to waiting for and possibly meeting the person you will one day marry?
