What is the best age to get married?
There really isn't a best age but I think it is important to put school, house and career first. It does help to have children when you are younger as long as you can pay for them because when you get older, staying awake when the baby needs changing takes more energy when you are older because some people get tired more. It takes a lot of energy to keep up with a toddler so having children earlier and enjoying your grandchildren may be more rewarding.
Marriage is more suited to people who are self-less. In other words, marriage doesn't necessarily make life better because you have to work for two people instead of one and you have someone to help you but if both parties are selfish then you shouldn't get married because a baby will only reveal the problems. So in that sense, it isn't about age but it is about self-lessness because I'm a full time parent and if I want time to myself then the other parent has to help.
Mar 8:34 ¶ And when he had called the people [unto him] with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
What does this verse mean to you? What does it mean to follow Jesus? If you are having trouble in your marriage, it is about both parties denying themselves and being self-less instead of selfish.
