MAXIMIZE SINGLENESS IN THE BEST WAYS-One of the best ways to prepare for a good marital life is to learn to maximize singleness.
Singleness is not a sin, it is not a crime, and it is not a liability. It is a stage in life, a plus. Please, maximize it. Don’t rush into marriage because many are getting married. Maximize singleness; enjoy this period in the presence of God. Learn all you need to learn, know all you need to know. Many people fail in marriage because they fail to make the most of their single life. They were too much in a hurry to get marry, forgetting to maximize singleness. Before you go ahead into marriage, do the following to maximize your single period:MAXIMIZE SINGLENESS IN THE BEST WAYS
