    My boyfriend and I have been really struggling with our physical boundaries. We’ve prayed and prayed and prayed about it and it hasn’t gotten any easier. We were best friends for two years before we started dating and have been together 8 months. My parents told him a few months ago that they wanted us to wait until we had been together for at least a year before we get married because they believe that I am incapable of being a good wife and that I will ruin our marriage because I have ADHD. His mom believes, according to 1 Corinthians 7, that we should get married as soon as possible so we don’t have to deal with this temptation any more. Yesterday he proposed and said that he wants to get married at the courthouse Friday without the consent of my parents. I do really want to be married to him, and if my parents were okay with it I would choose to go through with it immediately, but I do not want to disrespect them despite how hurtful their beliefs about me have always been. I need clarity between now and Friday to decide what to do.

    Beloved ,

    You will only have 2 parents in life but you can have SEVERAL boyfriends in life. That is the 1st thing I want you to understand . You MUST honor your parents if you expect your marriage / life to be blessed. Therefore please talk to your parents 1st . You can wait 1 year . If you cant that means stay with him is out of question because definitely you will fall into sin. Seek God for favor and after that talk to your parents .

    God is a God of order and not confusion. Ask him for wisdom and favor regarding this matter . He too is the healer of all conditions so ADHD is nothing that can challenge him. Ask him to give you a mind that is at PEACE at all times.

    May God order your steps.

    Stay Strong in Christ .

    Hi, first of all that hurt my heart that your parents would say that about you. I’m not judging anybody, and I can tell that you really respect your parents. I will be praying that you make the right decision. Please let us know what you decide

    Heavenly Father, I stand in agreement with Sheila’s prayer and advice l. I pray that the Holy Spirit will fall upon you and your fiancé, and that God’s wisdom will lead you to the right decision. Father, I pray that If the urgency Imposed by the parents is in anyway linked to the evil one, for whom urgency and unnecessary pressure for a life decision is a hallmark, that you would reveal this false timing is a ruse of Satan. Father, I pray that you would bathe this couple in your love, and allow them to make their decision without Satanic pressure and extraneous judgment. Father, allow this couple to make this decision in full consultation and faith in you. Father, in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, I cast out Satan and his evil followers from any influence over this couple or this important decision. Father, be the center of their relationship, and minister your wisdom to them.
