Questions to Ask in a Relationship
Courtship is a fact-finding period, a time to learn as much as you can about your intended spouse. In this series, I will discuss the questions that you need to ask now, so that you can uncover information which will help you to determine if you can both say, “I do”.
A lot of times, when people say that their spouses have changed, it is because they don’t know each other well enough before marriage. They have not asked enough questions at different stages of their relationship before getting married. You need to understand that you don’t have the ability to reshape or reconstruct someone else; only God can; so, don’t have the plan to change your spouse in marriage. Rather, I want you to make the right choice now because marriage is for life.
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge
Hosea4:6
When you ask the right questions during courtship, you are sowing the right seeds and the harvest is a marriage built on the right foundation. These questions will enable you to avoid potential problems that may arise if the answers were to be discovered after marriage.
Asking the right questions will enable you to focus on the real person, which is beyond what you see on the outside; It takes two to tangle, so you must be ready to answer the same questions as well. You must know who you are in Christ and where you are heading to in life, to enable you to discover if someone is compatible with you.
Don’t feel pressured and don’t talk yourself into getting engaged to someone when you know deep down that things are not quite right. it is important for you to choose someone that will help you fulfil your God-ordained destiny.
I must emphasize that it is very important to pray diligently because we are not sufficient of ourselves; our sufficiency is of God. He is the one who will help you search for the truth; It is the truth that you know that will set you free – to become all that you are destined to be in all areas of your life. God Bless You!
