Look out not only for your own interests, but also for the interests of others.—Phil. 2:4.

 

How long should your courtship last? Hasty decisions often bring negative consequences. (Prov. 21:5) So your courtship should be long enough for you to get well-acquainted with the other person. However, you should not prolong the courtship unnecessarily. The Bible also says: “Expectation postponed makes the heart sick.” (Prov. 13:12) What can others do while a couple is courting? We could invite them to join us for a meal, for family worship, or for recreation. (Rom. 12:13) Do they need a chaperone, help with transportation, or a place where they can talk privately? If so, could we offer to help? (Gal. 6:10) If you are asked to chaperone, why not consider it a privilege? Be careful not to leave the couple completely alone, but also discern when they need time and space to talk privately. w24.05 30 ¶13-14

You can't walk with God while holding hands with the Devil.
