I finished reading Lady in Waiting and Choosing God's Best - both talked about godly dating/courtship. I love these books but yet...
There's all this talk about what to do when you do meet "the one." The books might have a sentence or maybe at most a paragraph that maybe you weren't meant to be married. That's it.
Well, ok, not exactly. Maybe there is a little more that goes on to say to keep focused on God just as you always have been. Now, that's it. Back to courting.
Why isn't there anything more mentioned about those who get No for an answer? Why isn't this considered to be as challenging as marriage can be?
It just does not make me feel very good. When we hear of the next person who got engaged. Or the next person having a baby. Or see that swollen stomach? Or see those tiny feet? See a birth announcement. Get a wedding invitation. What are we supposed to do? We are just told be happy and content. But how?
