With God all things are possible
Joel:
I can't think of a single case in the Bible, where a man and a woman got together for better, or for worse on their own accord. I am a strong believer that all matches were arranged by God, in the mind of God, long before we ever came into existence. 8)

Duane:
I am sure glad that God arranged my second marriage after my first. I sure learned lot from my first marriage and subseqent relationships
that make my pesent relationship of now 20 years a more blissful experience. A person changes so much over a lifetime that it seems that life should be lived in sections. I can't find any scriptures for that so I have to assume that it is MY reasoning that is faulty.
I see so many people that are looking for marital mates, then I see so many marital mates that WISH THEY WERE LOOKING!
Ny wife and I have had a lot of fun over the years with the fact that every 5 years, I have to write up a MARRIAGE CONTACT that she has to SIGN to state that she desires to "re-up" for the next 5 years!
Once we were in a store that we frequent often, so the staff kind of "knows us". Out of the blue, I said in a loud voice that all patrons could hear, "I am asking my wife to re-sign our 5 year MARRIAGE CONTRACT and I want you all to be witnesses. I had it all written in
poetic form and read the whole thing ALOUD and LOUD! All the staff and customers stopped what they were doing and listened. My wife then took a pen and re-signed the contact and everyone CLAPPED and all signed the document as "witnesses". We had no idea who the witnesses were!
The manager of the store then took the document and made a copy, framed it and it now hangs in his office!

Marriage? Meh, I don't know bout you guys but I'm just to find a cute girly then take it from there! Of course I'm very picky, and I already have a crush on this one girl but she lives so far away and Lord only knows if she's crushin back on me. Eh w/e, a man can dream right? Gah I so wish I had one chance with her!! xD
Roy Martin:
I know all too well where this guy is, and how he feels. I was wanting and looking so hard that it had my judgment distorted and was keeping me from concentrating on God; so I had a talk with God and told Him just how I felt of how I couldn't keep my mind on Him from being lonely. I said God, " I don't know that I should be asking, but you know good and well how I feel and whether I should be asking, but will you please give me a woman, this is my first time to ask, and I don't trust my judgment to know the right woman. I always mess up in some way.
Thirty minutes later I saw her and we married 9 days later. That was 5 years ago and we're still going strong.
We will never find what is right for us, but God will.
Peace
Duane:
Roy...Well? Don't leave us hangin'. What happened? Did you rear-end her with your car?
What did her/your parents think of your spontaneous decisions/action?
My nephew was playing a "pick-up" game of basketball at a Christian college he often went to play basketball at with the guys. He dribbled down the court and lost control of the ball and it went out of bounds right in front of a group of girl students who were watching the game.
My nephew looked up and saw a girl in the group and said "someday I'm going to marry you"!
He looked her up after the game. He DID marry her. Two beautiful kids and 20 years later they are as happy as can be. Home-schooled the kids and they are taking college courses while still in high school.
God works in strange ways!
