Scope: to look how we can choose a life partner
Time effect
We go through seasons of life. Psalms 90:12. Teach me to number our days right that we may gain a heart of wisdom. 70 yrs we shall live. Plan with what is available. 70 /10 = 7 yrs; every block of 7 yrs is a milestone – you must achieve something.
You might not have enough. From 21 yrs you are released from school and the decisions made are very important to your life is important. If you are to work backwards 70yrs – 20 = 50yrs (retire) – 22 yrs = 28 yrs (have your last born at 28yrs). 28yrs – 6 yrs = 22yrs – 1 yrs = 21yrs. From 17 yrs to 21 yrs you have a lot of time to find and sell you plan to the girls of your age. Once there is cooperation of the girl to execute the plan, go straight and say “you will be my wife”
