"I have been a Christian for so long and knowing Jesus has allowed me to not only accept but enjoy my singleness."
Long ago Augustine- a man who lived a rather loose life a single- eventually became an apologist for the faith and one of the church fathers. He wrote, "thou hast made us for thyself, O God, and our heart is restless until it finds its rest in thee." have you ever asked yourself why men and women have a wedding ceremony when they come together in marriage ? Why not just live together as a lot of people do?
marriage involves far more than just sex. Animals court, then copulate and bear offspring, but you were made in the image of God and endowed with a soul.
Among the reasons why couples commit themselves to each other in marriage is the recognition of our spiritual nature.
