Having goals in life is a great thing and everyone should have goals. Goals are what give us direction in our lives. A hockey game with no net, so no one can score goals is rather boring. Life without a purpose is boring. But among all the goals that you could have, marriage is not one them.

Some single people are so concerned with finding a partner that they get distracted during teachings in church. They hear what their pastors teach, but they don’t listen, which is unfortunate because the fruits of the Spirit are directly related to the way we listen.

God wants to use us for His glory, but what He asks us to do isn’t always easy. At least, not easy for us. In our opinion, another person would be in a much better position to accomplish the task. So why us?

Stop whatever you are doing. Forget land claims for a moment, put aside concerns. Now, take the time to remind yourself that you are not of this world! That life on Earth is very temporary and doesn’t deserve to be plagued by stress.

There are two levels of submission to God. One, we can ask him to rule over our daily life, and ask Him for His guidance in all our decisions. In our projects, we talk to God, for Him to  guides us in the right direction and for His favor and the favor of men. And this is a key to success, as Proverbs 16.3 (NCV) says : “Depend on the Lord in whatever you do, and your plans will succeed.”
