I am seventeen and my love interest is as well. He told me he has been praying about a future for a us– if it is in God’s plan or not. I have not gotten a clear answer from God yet but I know that things in my life seem to lead me to him. We are now starting a mini- ministry together in school. Do you think it is possible to fall in love and find the ONE God wants you to be with? I understand that God may want us to wait until we are old enough to court and marry but do you think it is possible we are meant to be someday and just not now??? Thank you.
Scriptures helpful! Any similar experiences where you actually married the one you fell for at that age?





Stop worrying about the boy and focus upon the ministry for God. Please keep in firmly in mind that Satan will most certainly bring people into your life whose only goal is to destroy your testimony as a Christian and ruin your personal ministry for Jesus. Guard your heart jealously and do not give it away simply because a boy is handsome and flirts with you. Love is more than sexual attraction.
yes honey you can find love in the church, God knows I have. I like the one in the bible that says, I am in my father as he is in me. They will not let me get married yet even thought I did fall for one at that age.
man proposes, god disposes
Rarely is the question asked: Is our children learning?
Keep it simple, dear. You ARE only 17, by the time you are 19 or 20, you may very well have found someone else that seems to be THE ONE as well. I was madly in love at 18 and married someone else entirely at 21.
You are not old enough to marry until you are capable of supporting yourself. In a society where 50% of marriages end in divorce, it is wise to be prepared for reality. And the fact is that in today’s economy, it usually takes 2 paychecks to survive anyway.
And part of “free will” is that “god” may show you the possibilities in your life but it is still up to you to make the choice, “god” does not dictate that.
Blessings on your Journey!
