>> The Lord wants to bring a mate to those who will ask Him and have the
>> patience to wait for His choice. Choosing that right person should not be
>> based on our emotions alone, as many times our emotions need to be 
>> cleansed
>> as they are not the sign of love. The true definition of love is "God is
>> love." If God is not in a relationship it is not true love. What this 
>> world
>> calls love is really lust since it is built on what the other person does
>> for me, not what I can do for him or her. If the other person fails to 
>> keep
>> up his end of the bargain, a divorce occurs because the offended mate is 
>> no
>> longer pleased. This is the attitude of the world's so-called "love." 
>> God's
>> love loves without receiving back; God's love is forgiving and patient.
>> God's love is gentle and kind.

>>
>> Man's emotions are not a reliable gauge upon which to establish a
>> marriage relationship. We must know in the Spirit that it is God's will. 
>> It
>> is much better to marry for character than for emotion. Emotions 
>> fluctuate;
>> character doesn't. Emotions are in the soul's realm, and unless the 
>> carnal
>> mind has been renewed, Satan can give us emotions or feelings of love for
>> someone of his choosing. (If he did not have this in his power, he could
>> not split up marriages.)  "Falling" in love is Satan's way. The very
>> expression of these words should tell us something. A Christian should 
>> not
>> blindly "fall" into any trap. Love is bigger than simply falling for
>> someone. Certainly, the Lord gives us a wonderful emotional feeling for 
>> the
>> one we are to marry. However, this "feeling" without God's direction can 
>> be
>> disastrous as Satan can tamper with our emotions and feelings too.
>>
>>
>>
>> Marriage, in a Christian's life, should be based on a decision directed
>> by the Holy Spirit. A Christian's love for another is a commitment. Of
>> course, the Lord will supply the emotions for the mate He sends, but that
>> should not be the criterion for making the decision to marry. The Lord
>> should be sought, and whatever He speaks to us we should do. He knows the
>> future and what is best for us. If we trust Him, He will not fail us in
>> this or any other important area. Women or men who allow emotions to rule
>> them will never be victorious Christians. Emotions should always follow,
>> never lead.
>>
>>
>>
>> The Lord wants to bless marriage unions and see His plans fulfilled in
>> both mates' lives. What a glorious plan He had from the beginning for 
>> both
>> male and female. We can trust Him in this important decision. If we will
>> totally commit to do His will, we will never be disappointed in the one 
>> He
>> sends into our lives. A man who finds that virtuous woman will find she 
>> is
>> a woman of character, as Proverbs 31:12 says; she will be a comfort to 
>> her
>> husband by encouraging him and doing him good all the days of her life, 
>> as
>> she will never leave him or divorce him.
