Admin	Heeeey, Ladies... Ponder Over These Things!... Posted : 8 Sep, 2011 04:28 PM In regards to personality, it is an important factor especially when considering compatibility. No one wants to be with some one that they do not blend or get along with. However, conflicts can be turned in to complements. Sometimes false assumptions are made of persons because of their personality. For example, a man who has a meek countenance may be considered as being weak. Some women think that the ideal husband and spiritual leader is one of a real assertive or aggressive nature. Men with these types of personality traits are considered to be stronger. Nothing could be further from being accurate. Meekness is a godly characteristic because it is part of the fruit of the spirit. Although weakness and meekness may look similar outwardly, they are not the same. Weakness is due to negative circumstances such as lack of self-esteem and courage. But meekness is of a person’s choice. It is strength and courage under control, coupled with kindness. Anyone can act out of aggression when faced with adversity; it takes no strength to do that because it is a natural emotional response. But to maintain a mild temperament in the face of adversity, takes strength and self-control. Also, this is an indication that they are walking in the spirit and not in the flesh. A true, authentic, spirit filled, Christian woman who desires a true authentic spirit filled Christian man ought to find this quality very attractive. Although the Book of Proverbs does not give much about the qualities of a godly husband, here are some qualities a godly woman should look for in a godly man. 1. A wise husband is kind and compassionate (12:10). 2. A wise husband is honest (29:24). 3. A wise husband is hard-working (12:11; 27:23-27). 4. A wise husband is truthful (12:17,19). 5. A wise husband exercises self-control (12:15; 16:32). 6. A wise husband is a man of integrity (19:1; 20:7). 7. A wise husband is faithful and reliable (17:17; 29:3). Even more important a godly man and woman show their love for the word of God written: (a) By diligently reading it. A godly man’s heart is the library to hold the Word of God; it dwells richly in him (Col. 3:16). (b) By frequently meditating on it: “It is my meditation all the day” (Psa 119:97). So we learn that our character is far more important than our outward beauty or personality. So when choosing a mate, let us not be fooled by just a pretty face or a nice personality but let us choose the way God would have us to choose, on the basis of a godly character. Let us continue to display more of a godly character through the empowerment of the Holy Spirit so we may demonstrate it to the lost. faithwriters.com Post Reply
