Faith Q&A › Youth Concerns › Relationships and Marriage

What is the best way to know one’s partner during the engagement process?

The answer

The best way to know your partner is through prayer only, because in this way, you are inviting God into your relationship and your situation. ’o not rely on the emotions because they change all the time, do not rely on your intellect, for your mind is limited and you may be deceived, and do not rely on the physical, for you may commit sin. Prayer is the priority and the most important aspect. Pray and ask for spiritual guidance, for the spiritual aspect is the decisive one. Pray, and God will enlighten your mind.
