Sorry that this quoted bible verses is not Marriage-centric but let’s derive something teachable.
Open your Bible with me to Acts 13:1-3
‘…Commission Barnabas and Saul for the mission I have called them to complete.’
That’s God calling Paul and Barnabas!
But
Here is Acts 15:39
“The disagreement escalated, until Paul and Barnabas went their separate ways. Barnabas took Mark with him and sailed for Cyprus,”
Hmmmm, same Paul and Barnabas!
The lesson here is that, that it’s God doesn’t mean there won’t be disagreement during our courting days or even in marriage.
In Courtship, at times, each of you will have to go your separate ways for the greater good of all.
It doesn’t mean God is not involved at the inception but you know we are still in our fallen state as human beings.
And because that happens doesn’t mean we must become enemies.
No! Paul and Barnabas were never enemies despite their ministerial disagreement.
In fact, the same Mark that cause the split was commended in one of Paul’s letters.
May God helps you to gain understanding into this mystery.
