I Know Some Happily Married Single Women

He who finds a wife finds what is good and receives favor from the LORD.(Proverbs 18:22 NIV)


Have you ever been walking along, minding your own business, and looked down and found a quarter, nickel, dime, or a dollar? Was it your touch that made it whatever it was you found or was it that before you even arrived on the scene? So maybe, just maybe, fellas looking for a good wife should try to find a woman that’s already in a marital relationship. No not polygamy. Try to find a woman that loves God and shows it. She flatters him with praise. She lets her hair down in worship. She’s open and honest with him about her expectations of him. She’s so faithful to Him, that she won’t show even her love for you in a way that would bring him pain, but insists upon you sharing in the love she has for him. She’s not conceited, but she is, “confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in her will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ: (Philippians 1:6). She is virtuous, which in Hebrew means she has the strength of an army (yet cloaked in femininity).

Lastly, she wants a man that’s not intimidated by all that her first TRUE love (God is Love) has endowed her with, but understands and embraces the package of gifts she is because of Her God.

I'm on the path to becoming her. God is being patient with me and "WOW" what a patient and forgiving GOD is he? I can see and feel my growth because the old me was so consumed with fixing my "relationships" and now that I'm not in one, I've never felt more happier, fulfilled and at peace with God the only man in my life!

Bravo!!! Very very moving. I too am becoming this woman by his grace and his grace only. I pray that a "true" man of God will see these qualities in me someday but in God's time, not mine. PEACE!

That is the woman that the Lord delights with. A lot of women today is way far than the women before the day of my Mom I should say... :) I think it's because women today are busy shopping for some nice outfits and accessories all nice gadget and stuffs...so what's the point? Well, simple...just wear His image in your countenance and you don't need all those accessories just to meet the one who can give you a 'true love' since it is felt within and only by those with the same level of spirituality. That, is what you deserve.

What a wonderful post! I've always felt that a man should fall in love with a woman who is so deep in love with God. That's how you know you've found a good thing.

Wonderful Read!
