Life is short. Not just for us as individuals, but in all of history. Therefore, when we look at men and women in the world, we should be far more concerned about the state of their soul than their relationship status. The amount of time is short, thus God has ordained a period of time where you’re not married or dating to help you focus in on what matters most. As Paul told us, “To promote what is appropriate and to secure undistracted devotion to the Lord” (1 Corinthians 7:35 NASB).
