Can christians only wait for god to prepare a partner, and not actively seek one?

[rong]

我想再问一个问题。在中国的教会中，有些人认为单身基督徒的婚姻应该完全在上帝的指导下，他们不应该主动寻求婚姻。通过这种方式，他们将超越上帝，只应等待上帝准备一个伙伴。是对的吗？我是单身母亲，已经单身18年。我相信上帝已有16年了，但我从未见过一个合适的基督徒来结婚，因为教会里没有多少单身兄弟。

This is what it says according to Google translate.

I want to ask another question. In the Chinese church, some people think that the marriage of single Christians should be completely under the guidance of God.

They should not actively seek marriage. In this way, they will transcend God and should only wait for God to prepare a partner.

Is it right? I am a single mother and I have been single for 18 years. I believe that God has been for 16 years, but I have never seen a suitable Christian to marry because there are not many single brothers in the church.

Hi Rong, I assume you can speak English from your profile page? If so
you would be better to post in English, which most of us speak.
Not many will take the time try translate and not all translation websites
are accurate.

Ok, thank you! Unfortunately, since my phone automatically defaults to Chinese, I may have to post on my computer in the future
