When You’re Dating: Listen to Your Parents and Friends
Everybody is capable of self-deception. There is nothing like a strong romantic attraction to slow down your brain processes. When you want a relationship really badly, you can become quite blind to things other people can see.
How does your boyfriend treat his parents? Is he courteous and respectful toward you? What is her reputation when she is away from you? Does she tell the truth? Does she keep her promises? Does he build you up when he’s away from you?
Although still common in places like India, arranged marriages are long out of style in America. But I’ll bet Isaac was eternally glad that his father helped him find a wonderful woman like Rebekah to be his life partner. Abraham commissioned a trusted servant to find a godly woman for his son: “I want you to swear by the LORD, the God of heaven and the God of earth, that you will not get a wife for my son from the . . . Canaanites, among whom I am living” (Genesis 24:3).
Do you trust your parents and friends enough to ask for their advice? If they give it, will you listen?

Marriage is an amazing gift from God, but it is also hard. Many marriages struggle - partners either don’t know how to treat each other or they know and don't want to change. These devotions, one for each day of your month, are for married people, for those who hope to be married, and for all of you who used to be married. Re-listen to God's words about this sacred institution and rededicate your ways to be more like his ways.
