​@@barbaraandersen2116 To your questions, I'll share my thoughts. Many Christians see marriage as the ultimate goal in life and without it, they feel useless, insignificant, not complete, not accomplished etc. And I know that could be as a result of the teachings we receive. It leads many to become so desperate for Marriage - since this feels like a major part of their life is incomplete without it. Again, some Christians try to serve God or glorify God so that God will give them a spouse. That is where you would need to know that marriage and dating is not the goal to glorify God. As if to say, if I glorify God, He will bring the One to me. If I glorify God, I'll find my spouse... Instead, you should see marriage as a means to glorify God. Having the mindset that as God permits you to date someone, you will cease that opportunity to give God Glory through your lives together. As God permits you to marry, you'll use your marriage to glorify God. Scripture says that the whole duty of man is to fear God and keep His Commandments. And I would say here that marriage is not a Commandment nor is it an Obligation. Marriage or dating is a CHOICE. Which is why Paul in 1st Corinthians 7 says that he would suggest that many of us be SINGLE, but then it's a CHOICE! Sorry this is lengthy: let me tell on myself for a bit. I used to have the mindset that if I keep myself from fornication and sexual sin, that God will bring me a good wife. And this is what I believed and it was the motivation for me committing to God to keep away from Sexual sin of all kinds. But then God rebuked me in a Holy Way. He said to me: A good wife is not a reward for your good works, your being holy, your purity etc. Then I was drawn to the passage in Proverbs that says that A Good Wife is a GIFT from the LORD. That convicted me. It humbled me. I thought I would deserve a good wife for keeping myself. Until God corrected me. That my purity and holiness is for my GOOD. It's to help me not be perverse. I'll stop here. I hope this helps

I met a woman a couple months ago in my church. These points were almost a step-by-step of what's been happening within me since meeting her. There's an intrinsic draw to her. This is wildly different than any other time I've had interest in someone. And when I spoke to my pastor about her, he confirmed a lot of things I have been feeling or hearing regarding this, before I had even mentioned them. I'm equally excited and terrified. Doubts and anxieties creep in, but there's this small, still hope within me drawing me to pursue her. Everything seems to line up, so I'm trusting in Christ and taking the steps provided to me before I make the move. Lol please pray for me!

Honestly the confusion part is so real for me because I honestly turned to god more to confirm if he is the right one because I constantly think of this person and when we’re around each other it’s something I’ve never felt nor have experienced. It’s gotten to a point where i just turn to him whenever there’s an encounter on what to say and how to discern

I once used a plastic egg to show why God allows brokenness into our lives. I opened the egg and told them that when our hearts or lives are broken God can enter in and heal us from the inside out. We often put up a protective shell that keeps out the things that will bless us. We have to allow it to be broken so we will be filled with his Spirit.

Point no. 2 is really comforting to me and takes away the burden of not having to be completely ready in some life areas in order to get married. After all, partners should grow together in some areas, learning from each other and supporting each other in their growth as Christians. And the point no. 3 is interesting - through confusion God can reveal to me the one. I do have so many questions to which I will hopefully soon find answers to. Thank you, brother Mark, for sharing your wisdom from God about this. 🙂 God bless you. 🙏

I am in my 50’s. They have really helped me a lot as someone who did not grow up around Christian principles. These videos just started popping up in my feed a few weeks before I met the guy I am seeing now. It has been a special experience and unlike any relationship I have had to date. Felt like these videos gave me the info I needed to enter into this relationship. Christ can restore our hearts and minds from the pain, hurt and betrayal that happens in life. I would just add, keep your kids first and look for someone who will rise up to the role you need for someone to take in your life and before God before entering a commitment.

Im a female and will be 36 at the end of this month. Im single as a Pringle and so sad and trying to keep faith. I desire a Godly husband and children but haven’t been so lucky. 3 years ago I was on my knees calling out for God to reveal my husband to me and I met a man I fell head over heels with the next weekend. I had an overwhelming feeling of wanting to go in a place I hadn’t been in a while and waited 45 mins in parking lot for my girlfriend to get there just to walk in. He was first person I looked up at. We have all sorts of things in common and go to the same church however he is scared of love. He just turned 46 and has only been in one serious relationship and that was over 15 years ago. He isn’t pursuing me so I try to let it go but he is on my mind all day and night. I pray for him daily and for myself to move on. I have a hard time judging if God is speaking to me or my own will but I consistently feel drawn to pray for him and still love him.

I'm one of those people who has been in a state of confusion for a couple of years, though I'm constantly reminded that God isn't the author of confusion. At the same time, I feel like I should either call it quits and start over after the imminent return of Christ, or continue my search and keep getting rejected. Either way, I feel like I'm trapped, and not sure what to do because I will still feel alone, but not in a spiritual sense given the fact that God never leaves us alone. I mean, even if I did find someone around my age, I feel like it's still too late to fulfill my dreams and desires given the fact that people's bodies start to slowly develop problems around mid-twenties and early 30s which will prevent Couples from doing things like going to amusement parks, and other things in that nature. Of course, growing in the Lord is my primary goal with a significant other. Believe it or not, growing in the Lord with someone is part of my dreams and desires as I'm currently serving as a student leader of intervarsity, and there are plenty of couples on leadership together. That's another thing I feel like I'm missing out on. And I guarantee it's extremely joyful to serve the Lord with your significant other by evangelizing and praying with other students.

This third point about confusion is so spot on with where I'm at right now, met this wonderful young lady at church probably about a year ago, and since then it's been confusing. That's all I'll say in this comment here, but yes I agree 100% about the confusion. It's causing me to lean into God even more because I have to trust him, because I tried handling business myself and it didn't work out the way I thought it would. So I'm letting the Lord have his way, which is what he wants 🙏🏼

I am or i feel the same. I believe God is letting me know through various means and channels that He loves me and wants a relationship with me which I do with Him, but it has been very rocky and now, after being tested time and again, and many times I have tried to walk away, but never truly have, I always come back to Him, like the prodigal son, and He continues to welcome me back with open arms and showers me with so much grace and mercy. And how much does He loves me? From the fact I have messed up so bad in my life many times and He's still able to bounce me back and from my mistakes, open doors and create opportunities for me, there are all learning oppression and imperative for my growth. And He's got a great and better plan for me ahead, I am sure of it and he does. I believe it, and it is. Amen and, Amen 🙏. Looking forward to it. God bless you and everyone.

This made me cry...When I hit rock bottom about 3 years ago and thought I was going to end up homeless and completely alone after a difficult break up of a 20 year relationship, living in a foreign country, I felt for the first time in my life I should look to the Holy Spirit for guidance and love. Once I decided to leave it to God, I was lead step by step and started to build myself up again. I met a man under whose loving guidance I found a job and bit by bit got back on track. I had never felt like this before in my previous relationship. I have never felt protected and lead with love before by a man. Unfortunately I lost this relationship due to my still lingering fear of abandonment, but I am now convinced that these are lessons I needed to learn. I know I can feel safe in HIS guidance. Lately your channel has been popping on my recommended KZbin channels. I am not even a Christian...

All I can say is that, God broke and humbled me a month ago. Weeks back, I met a guy whom I couldn`t see a relationship with besides him being my husband. I am ready to be his wife, but also feel that God could`ve brought him maybe a year later (Its like I`m not ready for what`s about to happen). Lastly, I find myself asking a lot of questions regarding his intentions, or why are we now talking. All I know is that I will testify about this in two year`s time. P.S: I have also made a prayer, not for him to be my husband, but for God to reveal His purpose to me regarding the guy, all answers lead to one thing. My husband.

I think one of the primary reasons so many men and women are single in their 30s and 40s nowadays is that their standards are way too high and they base their standards on worldly desires. Both sexes have become very superficial, lustful or materialistic. Men are superficial and lustful when it comes to a woman's appearance. Men are seeking the most youthful, beautiful women to fulfill their sexual desires rather than seeking a Godly relationship with a nurturing, loyal and supportive woman. Women are superficial and materialistic when it comes to seeking men with the highest wealth, status, and resources rather than seeking men who are spiritual, honest, loyal, hard working, responsible and respectful. I've heard many women nowadays refer to these men as "boring", "predictable, "too nice" or "weak". While I agree that there are many Christian men nowadays who have become sheepish and lack self confidence, there are still many confident men who serve the Lord that are often overlooked because they aren't cocky, flashy or wealthy.

As someone with a history of unhealthy or toxic relationships, this video honestly opened my eyes SO MUCH! Deep down, I know that it's possible to meet and be with somebody that feels right and healthy for me, but with the position I'm in right now, I'm finding that perhaps God just needs to work through me alone before I can re-enter the dating scene since my focus is so scatter-brained, bouncing back and forth between two different areas of work as an employee and as a student.

I agree, confusion does not come from God. And these questions are being asked in a positive context (wanting to see the person more), not confusion as to why someone you thought you were supposed to be with is actually not that easy to be around (personality wise) after all. Or there is little romantic attraction to that person. That's confusing to me.

I was broken by God during my senior year of high school. I am on the pathway to recovery and healing. I am thankful and joyful that God allowed for this to happen to my family and I. I am thankful that His promises are unfailing and that His Word is true. I am more in love with God than I ever have been in my entire life.

God sent me the one after I had a broken heart. For 20+ years we built a happy home, children, and family. But then it abruptly ended in 2021 because someone committed sexual immorality. I'm in so much pain. I actually reconnected to the person who broke my heart. I believed it to be divine timing and was super happy. I thought it would heal my heart. But since this year all I've been feeling is anxiety.

Thank you again and again Mark. Your videos bring confirmation of the events we go thru as Believers when it comes to dating and marriage. The conclusion I have made from experience and applying wisdom you share from God’s word is Faith and following Him is all we need. Never perfect but our faith and love for Him will keep us close to His will for us. Thank you again Mark, blessings…!🙏🏻🕊✝️

The questions you put on screen for the third hard thing are all the exact questions i ask myself, especially the one about, "Should we stay freinds longer, or date now?" I just find it really interesting, it seems like God intended me to ask these questions and the person who i like more than just a close freind is maybe even the one.

That's what happened to me, when I met her it was like my life turned upside-down, I couldn't focus on anything and felt like it is not the right time as I have to choose my path, what do I want to do in my life. Additionally I gave up medicines so that was really hard time. I have not dated her, do not even know her name, but after 9 months I still can't forget her smile & eyes, there is a kind of invisible force/connection, hard to describe. I was never afraid of nearly anything, even dying but since I met her I am worried of her. I was always focused on my goals and refused women even though I received a lot of unwanted attention, but it's like she is the one. I don't know what to do as she is from other country and I do not know their language, learned some words, but I feel that I have to at least talk to her even if we won't be together as I feel like staying in one place. I wouldn't like to hurt her feelings, but I do not want to let other coworkers gossip about us. It doesn't matter how hard I try I always look into her eyes when she is in my field of view and feel strong & weak at the same time. I had never such a problem to look into women's eyes but that's really intense. Any advice?
