Wow what an interesting debate,
now in my opinion, God will provide, pray about and spend some time with Him.
Don't get too involved in you search, just relax and take it easy. I pray that you will have luck, but you dont need to jump into marriage straight away, and it should not matter how you find her as long as she has a heart for God.

I wouldn't be in a hurry. God blessed me with a husband when I wasn't even looking. It's all in God's hands.

WOW! You have your lives ahead of you girls and boys.... As a single mom of two teens, trust God to bring you the right one in HIS TIME-NOT YOURS.... In the meantime enjoy your youth, travel, make friends, have fun, go out, live life! May God Bless each one of you in his time in his way to glorify him.

as long as ur spiritually mature and God sees ur ready He'll give u a wife. dont go ahead of God though, cause that will bring misery. i wish u well in ur search for a mate. i know the feeling, perhaps something like what Adam felt when he needed Eve.

See, some of you probably won't believe this and that's fine, but the more I prayed about singleness and marriage the more God led me to literature and advice that says sometimes you need to take initiative to meet the right person. God is still leading you, but that doesn't mean He'll never ask us to do work or step out of our comfort zone.

hey im 19 years old...from missouri too!! how cool
i know how it feels like youre behind...a.nd i feel this way too...but wanting to get married is kinda intense
i have those feelings of wanting someone to be there for you through everything...and show the love of God through your love...
im a hopeless romantic...with an emphasis on the hopeless...i get it ...ipromise...but
for both our sakes...i think we should just slow down....meet people...and God will hopefully put the right person in our lives :)
God bless!!!

hi tyler. i hope your search is going well :) i know you posted this a few months ago so maybe you've found someone already! i just wanted to say that although i respect incorporatestreet's opinion, i have to disagree. i think meeting someone in person is better and easier, but i don't think its WRONG to meet someone from the internet. so far ive never met anyone from the internet, but the bible obviously is silent on the issue, and alot of good relationships have come from it. you DO need to trust in God, but that doesn't mean you can't be proactive too! ;) i mean, even though its God's will it doesn't mean she will fall into your lap from heaven! haha. good luck with everything :)

Im 19, and im reading the book called 'God is Your Matchmaker' by stephanie herzog.
it has really opened my eyes. first of all, online dating or finding your mate online isnt of god.
second, you need to have an intimate relationship with god before you can handle a relationship
with the opposite sex. third, you need to completely and whole heartedly trust and believe
the lord will bring that woman into your life when the timing is perfect for god is never late or early.
so be patient, and pray for your wife that god will lead your paths together.
I hate to say it but I must agree. There is just no way around God's timing without diving head-long into sin, but that will only result in misery so you better not take any short-cuts. I have lots of experience with short-cuts so trust me, I know!

You need to seek God first, and His Righteousness - imparted into you - and then God can bring a mate your way. Anything less than that and you are cheating yourself.

You'll never be happy dating/married to a heathen.
