In the turmoil of our lives and the chaos of our thoughts, we sometimes lose sight of what truly matters. How can we find rest? We don’t need a grand revelation, but simply a reminder of our relationship with Jesus.

Having goals is a very good thing. We should all set different goals. But of all the goals we can work toward, marriage is not one of them. It’s certainly a keen desire, but it cannot be a goal.

When we are generous and compassionate toward others, we are always ready to offer our talents to meet needs. But before doing anything, we must always talk to God.

Then here are some questions to discuss: A goal is something you can do for yourself. Marriage cannot, therefore, be a goal, because it takes 2 people to get married! But what goals can you give yourself to be more ready to get married? Do you have other personal or professional goals that you could share with us? Do you have a spiritual goal or plan? Something you have in heart to do to make the Kingdom of God grow?

Faced with circumstances beyond our control, we can be shaken. We can also take the opportunity to stand out as Christians. Perhaps we have been placed in our community precisely for a time like today!
