A Christian lady wants a man who zealously loves the Lord. A man who knows that a woman is a treasure,
favor from God. A guy totally sold out for Jesus and lets the single Christian
girl know that he is not afraid of big commitments; That sometimes, he is never
sure about being a “good future husband or father “but is confident that with
the help of God, they can work things together. A man who is on fire for God;
who together with the girl will fuel their flame and become a potent fire for
God and warm the lives and hearts of other people
"The man who finds a wife finds a
treasure, and he receives a favor from the Lord" (Proverbs 18:22).
I hear some men saying how they are looking to find the Proverbs
31 woman. “Hey, wait a second bro.”
My biggest question has been, as you seek for her, have you considered if you
are the Proverbs 31 Husband like? We are told that;
11 The heart of her husband trusts
in her,
And he will have no lack of gain.
And he will have no lack of gain.
Dictionary meaning of trust is
reliance on the integrity, strength, ability, surety, etc., of a person or
thing; confidence. For a heart of a husband to trust a woman, there has to be
such a deep love shared. You trust that she will bring you no harm because you
love her truly. When he trusts her, he tells her everything and gets real with
her. He is honest with her and trusts her with his vulnerability. There are no
hidden skeletons that will be awakened from the closet later on.
When we trust someone, we believe that we can tell them
anything but we are sure no matter how bad it gets, they got us. Love is one solid character that every woman
wants or rather hopes to find in a man. And only a man who loves the Lord so
and understands that His love is meant to bring a little heaven in his family
as in Ephesians 5:22-24…Showering his woman with love as Christ loves the
church can. To love absolutely, shield, protect and nurture. Only a man who is
spiritual and manly at the same time can be able to do this. Adores his wife
like a treasure and ruby she is and like David also be a man after God's own
heart (Acts 13:22).
I am not going to write 5 key things that Christian ladies
look for in a man coz honestly, all she wants is a man who loves the Lord and
will help her love the Lord Jesus the more. If it’s the Tall dark and Handsome
Cliché’, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder and my personal preference which
by all means beside loving God is a sense of responsibility and charming intelligence, every other
woman has their wish list which is very different.
Someone sent me a message I thought was hilarious and said “maze,venye wewe hukuwa,maboys wengi hapa
church hukuogopea tu mbali (The way you carry yourself , a lot of
brothers in church fear you from a far). I laughed and thought; maybe it’s a good thing
coz most definite, the man who is intimidated by who I am is the last person I’d
be attracted to. But I will make it easy
for you here brothers, especially the shy ones…
If you really like a girl who is mature in faith and don’t
know how to start… begin with friendship, just to get to know her a little,
what she does, what she likes, her passions etc. If she is equally into you,
her response will tell it within no time. Be very careful though on the
questions you ask? I for one am sick of those who have hardly gotten to know
your second name asking intimate questions that leave you sorry that you are in
this generation. “How far have you gone in your previous relationships? I mean how close
were you ?” Dude, like seriously, why are you even asking this question
on our first conversation? And, you expect this chat to continue and well for
that matter. Some things are very personal and you only get to talk about them
when you are on another level altogether. It’s a deal breaker and the first
flashing red light that will jeopardize every chance of something coming up. Let’s
talk about your dreams, goals, fears and how I can or cannot fit into your
vision. Let’s talk about possible hike at Mt Longonot, even football, pthow not how far do you think is too
far in dating? Boundaries will be set when you and I are something else, not
now when you don’t even know that I secretly love crunching my crisps in bed
while catching a favorite movie or I love to squish ripe banana and honey for
my homemade facial …Eaaasy man.
Then ask her out for a proper date…Truth is, most Christian
ladies have stayed for way too long without being taken for a proper date and believe
you me, she will be more than happy to dress up in that cute black dress and
join you for the date. Free food is a good incentive; like really who doesn’t
like food and plus, she will be happy to get to know you some more. Reason
being, it takes a proper sound judgment for her to really accept to go on a
date. And if she does accept, then chances are you are winning already.
P/s: I am not talking about lipstick Christian ladies but
mature ladies who have been grounded in the faith and walk the talk…
That’s it for now.
Sincerely,
Sisters’ Keeper!
