Is the supplication "O Lord, grant me this job, and I do not want to get married" the reason for the delay in marriage, and what should I do now?

The answer

You have restricted yourself and withheld from yourself God's vast bounty. His treasuries are full, and His giving diminishes nothing from His dominion. The door of supplication is open, and God's favor is abundant. Turn to Him with sincerity and tears, so that He may fulfill your needs, for He is the Hearer of supplications, Generous, and Rich, nothing incapacitates Him. Do not let what has previously occurred deter you from asking Him, and you do not know if your supplication regarding this matter has been answered. Delayed marriage has multiple reasons. Beware of despairing of God's mercy and of dissatisfaction with His decree, for both are grave sins.
