Family can only do so much. Of course that is quite a “so much.” Here it talks about financial security. It is a family thing. Parents train children. They model for children in finance. When the time comes and the if the parents are able they might help with actual dollars. Other places it talks about teaching values and priorities. Family has a big job.
But finding the right “wife” (802), or husband for that matter, is a spiritual mystery. It may be the family is involved. Remember this is written in a culture where arranged marriages were common. But finding the right spouse, the “prudent” one, is a matter of trust in God.
This is another reason why divorce is not an option for believers. If we have trusted God for our salvation and sought his leadership in marriage don’t let times of doubt break down what God has established. Remember your wedding day, or one you have attended. I hope it contained,
(Mark 10:9 KJV) What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.You thought that was just traditional, didn’t you? It comes from the lips of Jesus.
So. Pray and trust that God is blessing your marriage, now or to come.
