There is a tendency amongst the unmarried to assume that the grass is greener on the married side of the fence, and indeed it should be since God has made us for marriage. But the world is a fallen and sinful place and Christians share the effects of this in the same way as others. As a result, there are not only unhappily single people but unhappily married people...
Naturally, all this should make us think very carefully about marriage! In this respect, surely the only thing worse than being unhappily single is being unhappily married. We should 'look before we leap' and we should remember that where marriage is concerned there is no reserve parachute!
- John Richardson, God, Sex and Marriage
