Let me make this clear:
I am not saying you CAN’T get married or find a partner. The message I was trying to convey is whether you SHOULD in the first place.
When you devote all your love for one, it means letting yourself die for the sake of taking care of the other person, which is why relationships are a two way street (or at least they should be).
Love for a significant other is NOT self-fulfilment. It is self-sacrifice.
But love for yourself, love for others who need it, and love for God, is a whole new level of Love. But it is a type of love that is heavy to carry, a type of love that involves doing what is right, not what always makes others happy.
This video was meant for others, and for myself, to be a reminder that most, if not all your life will be spent bettering yourself so that you can give your best to others and to your God.
“Do not ask God for a woman until you can prove you’re a man.” ~ St. John Bosco
Stop worrying about whether you’ll get a wife or husband. Start worrying about whether you even need them or deserve them in the first place.
I wish you well on your journey in life. God be with you.

Being single does not mean being alone. You will have friends and family in your life and God will be there for you too to provide companionship. It is better to remain single than to marry a person who is argumentative and contentious, nagging and vexing. So much so that the Bible says it’s better to live alone baking on the corner of a flat roof top in the hot sun exposed to all the elements than to be married to the wrong person. The Bible is true.
Amen
Matthew 17 says that NOTHING shall be impossible unto us.
It would be great if single adult Christian men were not judged so harshly by the church. They often have this notion "there must be something wrong with him if he can't find a partner" yet they will go on and read the letters of Paul and just brush over the part where he speaks about how his only love is the Lord and how he wishes all could be like he is. The modern church and modern Christians wouldn't have been welcomed into the early church when the Christians were being rounded up and systematically killed.
Just curious, what did you see or hear that makes you say that they have the notion? I don’t disagree with you, it just sounds like someone said something to you, or you saw something in the church that gave you this thought.
And this is why I just worship at home and hardly go to church. “Oh wow , he’s a good looking guy, why can’t he just find someone “ they don’t say it but their eyes do.
Don't stress about it. If they ask, simply tell that it's God's timing and not yours.
@@zoltanhorvath7454 truth! Amen brother
@@Lukas-rw7okEven tho people create community, you shouldn't be discouraged because of people, Church is when you get closer to God by singing praises with your brothers/sisters in Christ which like you are body of Christ
I really hate this but at least it’s honest.
I surrender to Gods plan 😢
This man is a false prophet deceiving you.
Which is why everything being sexualized is especially cruel to people who want to marry, but never met the right one. But of course, the unsaved world is cruel - many unsaved get a thrill by ruining someone else's day.
Thank you. I needed that.
Thanks for the wisdom
You're welcome bro. God be with you.
Always in the right moment
Viktor Frankl was a Jewish psychiatrist and holocaust survivor. He wrote a book called mans search for meaning. In it he quotes atheist Neitche " he that has a why to live can endure any how " this is true. Ive been walking this journey my whole life. Marriage is about sowing. Starting and building a family. At my age its too late. I have started the early autumn of life. There are seasons and purposes. For me sowing is over. Now its reaping and tending. I know from experience that you are better off alone than with the wrong person. You will be miserable. Try to find purpose and meaning. Job wanted to know why. I learned through that study that he was never privy to God's conversation with Satan. Sometimes you just have to trust him
Stan Lee didn't create spiderman until he was 40. Don't count yourself out. It could change in a moment
@@MarioWendorf Marriage & career are very different things! Honestly, you dont really want to be chasing little kids around in your 40's & 50's! I appreciate your positive outlook, and you are right about career opportunity. But family is a young man's game.
Everything happens in GOD’s perfect timing!!
Christus Dominus Est
i don’t know how to go on with Gods plan if i don’t have someone on my side like i want. i don’t want to give up but i don’t know if i’m right enough for God. what i want i can’t get. i want to hold her hand
God's response to my everyday question
Finally. Someone else knows what I've discovered through my life. It's all about what God has planned for you. Not what you want or what you think you may need. God knows what is best for you to be closer to him. Earthly worries are not Godly worries. It's too late for me to start a family now anyway. Time on earth is limited. Time in Heaven is forever.
Marriage and family definitely not for everyone.
I am one of this person.😄
Nice video, thanks. It gave me some reflection 🤗
Do give feedback on how I can improve this video (E.g. Use footage, visuals, sfx, etc.)
Thank you 🙏🏻
You can delete the video because it is not biblically accurate at all. All made up in your head.
Three points. 1) Genesis 2: 24-25 "Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. And they were both naked, the man and his WIFE: and were not ashamed." So who married Adam and Eve in the Garden? Definitely not Satan or the animals. It could only have been God. And what does it say about what God does? 2) Ecclesiastes 3: 14 "I know therefore, that whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever, nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it; and God doeth it, that men should fear before him." Since God married Adam and Eve, they are still married, and shall be married after the resurrection, and FOR EVER. 3) Mathew 19: 3-9 "The Pharisees also came unto him, tempting him, and saying unto him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause? And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female, And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. Therefore what God hath joined together, let NOT man put asunder. They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away? He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was NOT so. And I say unto you, That Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery." So if God is putting these marriages together, and what God does it is FOR EVER, then marriages have to be Forever, unless they are not done through God. Paul adds 1 Corinthians 11: 11 "Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man, in the Lord." So not only is marriage eternal, it is essential.
Is your advice literally to just give up?
My advice is to find out if you even should go for it. I’m not saying you CAN’T marry. I’m saying you should really think it through before getting into a relationship.
The world’s greatest individuals - Jesus Christ, the Apostles (excluding St. Peter), and other famous people who invented wonderful things… they did not get into a relationship.
They wanted to devote ALL their time to their craft, their passion, or their mission. They used all their focus on one goal. One task. And they achieved success that is rare in this modern world.
I understand you’re going to feel lonely. You don’t have someone who you can comfortably talk to about anything, hug, or lay your head on their shoulder.
But think about what you can also achieve. You can be change you want to see.
It simply requires sacrifice.
You could always try to be successful in life AND get a loving spouse. In the end, it’s your choice to make. He gave us free will, and we are free to use it however we want. Whether it’s what HE wants is another story entirely.
Yes, give up! Not his advice, but mine! because the longer you WANT it, the harder it will be to get it, and the more likely you will make compromises to get it. So . . . GIVE UP, focus on GOD, career, friends, your goals, and should GOD put a GOOD opportunity in your path, then and only then accept it. But you have to GIVE UP first for it to work. It sounds very harsh, i know, but i had to find out the hard way that this was what I was SUPPOSED to do too! You can learn from our mistakes, or make them yourself. The choice is yours.
Be accursed
Hell on earth,hell in the afterlife.
Praise Jesus 👍🏻
Sar-caustic
Beware of false phrophets like this man!
How so?
@@MarioWendorf He hasnt got a clue, he just likes the attention! LOL
how about quote scripture... this is trash
I dont buy that for a second. God does not treat people unfairly like that. It is not good for man to be alone. This video is garbage.
You are just mad because you dont understand! Fairness is not measured in human terms, but in GOD's terms! Every human thinks GOD treats them unfairly UNTIL, they let go, trust GOD and see His plan unfold. Its very difficult! And i still struggle with it, but when I have 'given up' and trusted GOD, it has opened my eyes. it I had gotten what i asked GOD for, often it would have been far less than what GOD actually gave me instead!
I'm afraid everything is too late.
Not true. Money is everything in this world. 98% of people will not make it to heaven. Money and pleasure is why. Pride and power come there after. We are in the end times. Live like your last second. Care for someone whike you can and if you don't make the rapture poor fire like shit don't count because it will be a long 3 and a half years.
What has happened to you? What have you seen that has made you say such things?
