young marriages.

i have lots of friends who have or are married young (young as in 19-22). i look at them and wonder how in the world they COULDN'T be together forever! most weddings i've been to within the past year or two are of friends of mine.. a wedding where i know both the bride and groom really well. 

but..

there are people around me (close friends/family & acquaintances) every day that think you shouldn't get married young. they say, "one out of 8 of those people will be divorced in 10 years" or "it's not smart" or "they don't know themselves yet" etc. I know that God is so, so much bigger than any statistic or what other people say, I know that! I just want to know your opinion or what you think God says about the matter. 

so in the most loving, kind and gentle way, lets talk! lets just discuss. :)
