IF YOU ARE MARRIED...
Marriage does not make you older than the people who are older than you in age, knowledge and experience.
Don't disrespect people who are older than you but aren't married because you are married
You use to genuflect and address them as 'sir or ma' but as soon as you got married you started calling them bro/sis. There are those you were calling 'friend' but as soon as you got married and started having children you now see them as subordinates. That means you never respected them, you were simply waiting to have better opportunities than them to establish your superiority over them
That you're married and have given birth does not mean you gave birth to everybody. You're not father or mother of all nations!
Marriage changes your status in society and have some benefits attached to it but does not make you better than those who aren't married, especially if you are not making any positive impact in people's life's.
Some people will not marry, some have not found the person to marry and that's not a crime. That does not make them incomplete or less important
There are many married people, highly placed in society who submit to Apostle Joshua Selman and look to him for counsel and inspiration, and their lives are better for it
Life is about impact, not just about personal interests. Your marriage should be one of the vehicles to make impact
Marriage is not your destiny, it is simply a means by which you fulfill destiny, and God can use anybody to be a part of your destiny, whether single or married.
Lastly, if you are married for five years and you're enjoying your marriage, you still need to respect the person married for twenty five years and is still keeping their marriage together. The both of you aren't mates. You dishonour their marriage and yours may not live up to ten years
I'm writing this especially to young married persons who see marriage as their greatest achievement in life order than the purpose of life itself.
