Honoring God in Our Relationships
36 If anyone thinks that he is not behaving properly toward his betrothed, if his passions are strong, and it has to be, let him do as he wishes: let them marry—it is no sin. 37 But whoever is firmly established in his heart, being under no necessity but having his desire under control, and has determined this in his heart, to keep her as his betrothed, he will do well. 38 So then he who marries his betrothed does well, and he who refrains from marriage will do even better.
1 Corinthians 7:36-38

Honoring God in Our Relationships
In these verses, Paul provides guidance for those discerning marriage, reminding us that our decisions should honor God. Paul speaks to those who are engaged, encouraging them to marry if their desires lead them that way, but also commending those who choose singleness for the sake of service to the Lord. The key is not whether one marries or remains single, but how they serve God faithfully in their calling. Marriage is a gift, yet so is singleness. Both are honored when rooted in Christ. As Christians, we are called to glorify God in all that we do, trusting His plan for our lives. Whether we marry or remain unmarried, our aim is to serve the Lord with undivided devotion, reflecting His love in all our relationships. God blesses those who seek Him first in every aspect of life. Let our decisions flow from faith, rooted in God's wisdom.
