       Now, I want to take a moment here and address singles before I close today, and give a few thoughts. I had titled this sermon ‘Dealing with Problems in Marriage’ and I want to talk to you who are single out there and about dealing with some problems before you get married. First, I would like to say that if you are waiting to find the right person to marry, now is the time that you want to be spending in growing to become more like Jesus. Your growth should be in rapid acceleration, for that likely is why God is making you wait for your partner. He wants you to grow into becoming a better person so that when the time does come for you to marry, you will be better able to handle challenges that come with marriage. Number two, I want to tell you that you should always follow your heart when deciding who to marry. We should never follow logic in our minds, or even conveniences, when deciding on our marriage partners. You should follow your heart when making your choice. Sometimes people will marry someone just because they have decided they want to get married, and that person is the only Christian he or she is around. But you shouldn’t make your choice based on that.
