Patience is a quality that many of us humans lack. In Genesis 24, it seems to reflect that all is well. It's a hard lesson to learn to think, don't panic, it's not very helpful when it comes to choosing a spouse, that panic. For important decisions, you need to take time to think. Catechesis for young people preparing for marriage, with Fr Thierry Germain Randriamiarantsoa.

Christians should love prayer. Even if you have nothing concrete to ask concerning your future husband, you should and must stand before the Lord to pray and ask him to guide you. Prayer for the desired spouse is a very special prayer. The Word of God also gives advice on choosing a spouse. Catechesis for young people preparing for marriage, with Fr Thierry Germain Randriamiarantsoa.

Prayer plays an important role in Genesis. We Christians need to pray if we are thinking of getting married. Prayer is strength and life for those who love it. Without intense and patient prayer, we will not find a suitable spouse. Jesus prayed every time he made a decision, even more than we humans do! Catechesis for young people preparing for marriage, with Fr Thierry Germain Randriamiarantsoa.

Choosing a spouse begins with trusting God; the spiritual comes before the physical. As Christians, we need to put all decisions about our lives in God's hands, especially the choice of a spouse who is right for us for life. Catechesis for young people preparing for marriage, with Fr Thierry Germain Randriamiarantsoa.
