I'm Lina Abujamra, and this is today's single Christian. The other day, I found a coupon for the corrective eye procedure Lasik. I was so tempted to buy it, but just when I went to click on buy, I stopped myself and asked the obvious question is my sight worth cutting corners on? Seems to me that if I really value something like my vision, I should be unwilling to choose the cheap way out to get it. When it comes to dating, it's tempting to pick the path of least resistance in order to get the outcome we want. Marriage. We cut corners and skip stages and completely forget the magnitude of the outcome. Yet marriage is serious business in God's eyes. Not to be taken lightly. It might be tempting to groupon your way to marriage, but is it really the best way? Look, I've bought my fair share of amazing deals online, and I know there are exceptions to every rule, but perhaps it's simply a matter of pausing and asking God what he thinks before you click on the button to close the deal.
