Your Life Should Always Be You-Focused
Here you should live in an exemplary manner. How else do you want to
expect this of your children? Rightly you will then have to say: „Big chil-
dren, big worries.“
GOD’s guidelines are there as a protection and for order’s sake. Who-
ever does not observe or breaks them carelessly, violates the love of
GOD. This often results in so many tears, so much grief and chaos.
Agreements should be made on how you imagine or wish an acquain-
tance to be: that none of you soils the honour of the other – that you
support and help one another in each other’s weaknesses and that you
do not play with fire.
You should not try out whether the two of you suit each other sexually.
This will always be a match if true love is present. You should rather
check whether you find each other in your hearts – whether your char-
acters make the perfect team – whether the necessary conditions are
present.
Young man – young girl, a nice friendship, a fine, pure acquaintance
can be something wonderful and builds up confidence. This confidence
will carry you, also when your boyfriend – your girlfriend is out of town.
Have you really been working on yourself and carefully thought every-
thing over, only then bind a person to yourself. Otherwise you are not
aware of your great task, nor will you be up to it.
Marriage is no pastime – no glamour – no replacement to dodge some
responsibility or other – no stopgap for those who are afraid of being
left on the shelf. Otherwise it is a deception, a violation of your fellow
human being and a sacrilege because you are not capable of fulfilling
this great, holy Sacrament. The Sacrament of Marriage is to be taken
just as seriously as any other of the seven Sacraments. Here you can
commit a sacrilege in exactly the same way as someone who receives
Holy Communion unworthily or abuses the Sacrament of Confession!
No play with holy matters (Sacraments) and a human being! Also man
is holy in the eyes of GOD.
