Tonto gave the advice in a video shared on Instagram. she urged men to step up when courting a lady for the purpose of marriage. She explained that some men adopt ‘low effort’ methods during courtship.
The mother of one noted that they should not rely solely on spiritual declarations as a substitute for genuine effort when pursuing a woman for marriage. She argued that using excuses like ‘God told me ’Is an attempt to bypass intentionality and practical effort.
“This is a very funny topic, but it is one that we actually need to discuss. So, if you are a brother in the Lord, come forward; this is for you. Why do church brothers think church sisters don’t require gifts? What about this low-effort thing you put into wooing or pursuing a woman? Church brothers would say, ‘God sent me to you,’ and blah, blah. God can send you, but using spiritual language to mask emotional laziness is a distortion of God’s character. Saying, ‘God told me you are my wife,’ is not an excuse to bypass intentionality and practical effort,” she said.
