Quite a number of singles are so preoccupied with the thoughts of getting married that they forget the essence of their existence on earth.
Definitely, marriage is beautiful but a number of married people who have erroneously believed while single, that marriage is the end of life and have neglected the essence of living, have gotten stuck after marriage because they discovered that there's more to life, and then, the struggles to find that more starts to affect their marriage.
I remember what a wise man once told me when I got frustrated about some setbacks I experienced in some major areas ofmy life and I was putting off the thought of achieving them until I get married. He said that the responsibility of achieving greatness which we place on other people, including our intending spouse, to help us with, can only be met by God. He advised me to keep achieving purpose and living, whether married or not.
So, have you thought or do you usually think about this, *"after marriage, what next?"*
Do you have an idea of your essence on earth and are you walking in the right path to achieving it or you're just waiting for the miracle of marriage to happen before you start living?
Marriage may not come as expected or planned. So, waiting in idleness is dangerous for you and will affect you negatively when you finally get married. Remember, the idle mind is the workshop of the devil and it's usually difficult to take it back from him once he takes over such a mind.
So, start living, affecting lives positively and finding fulfilment in whatever you are doing or have chosen to do NOW.
