After Courtship, what Next?

[Master]

Greetings to all Pastors and Pastoral Assistants in the house, fellow brethren in Christ seeking the way of the lord, I relayy greetings to you.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude toward all those who answered and responded to my previous post, giving me clarity and light.

It is this consciousness that has brought this question.

We get to know each other in courtship, even if I am not told, I know there are boundaries that are not supposed to be crossed. That will be a topic for another day.

Assuming I'm currently in the courting stage in my Relationship, and I feel I've known the lady enough, what's the next step?
What's the step called?
What is done in next stage?

I tried asking my mom this, she told me she never had to follow these process during her time.

Men of God, I implore you, I'm not the only one in the dark concerning this. Do not hold back your responses. It matters...

I am not a pastor but I'll ask if you've stayed with God in prayer ?
If you've not, I'd advise you do.
Pray until there's peace within you
And while praying try to find whatever teaching you can on marriage.
You would need a scriptural, sound understanding of marriage to be successful when you enter into it.
Also access your finances,
Can you carry the cost that comes with this new responsibility called marriage ?
Don't be in a haste.
The next step I believe after courtship is getting the introductions done.
After that the engagement.

AFTER COURTSHIP, WHAT'S NEXT?
Indeed it's a very deep question and from the little I know, I'll share.
In the first place, you're courting so that you can know each other better and now you're done courting and want to take it to another level which is MARRIAGE.
MARRIAGE is what comes next after Courtship, this is because you've known,studied each other well and needs to settle down.
During the time of courtship, go to God in prayer, have faith,be discerning and allow him to direct you. Not all courtship leads to marriage, you can only know this in the place of prayer through DISCERNMENT.
So MARRIAGE comes after COURTSHIP!
