         I work in everyone's life to bring them closer to Me and to make them more dependent on Me. With some I give them mates and children and families. This is a very sacrificial life, for when they are married they are no longer their own. When they have children it requires even more giving and sacrificial love, and a forsaking of one's own personal desires. Once you give your life to another, it is no longer your own. It is a sacrificial life when you become one with another individual.
         This is My plan, that one should leave their parents and be joined to another. Some are ready for this and some are not. And some go forth with it when they are
not ready, and unfortunately, people are hurt through the experiences that they have.
         I say to you: Are you ready for a spouse? Are you ready for a life of sacrifice, of living for someone else? Of changing your schedule for them? Of changing your habits for them? Of changing your personal ways for them? Of changing your appearance for them? Are you ready for that? When you take on a mate, your life is no more your own, but it now involves another person. This is a life of giving, a life of sacrifice, and the life of forsaking independence.
