Why Godly Standards Are Important
...in our relationships.
How many times have we seen women's magazine articles and the advertisements in them using the phrase “irresistible to men”?
I want to talk about the concept of being attractive to the opposite sex and how vanity has nothing to do with finding a potential husband. Lasting marriages aren't built on physical appearance.
If you want a real commitment with trust, loyalty, and open communication, you must first be godly, humble, and righteous in your behavior, and modest in your appearance. Before you're even ready for a relationship, you must first give your life to Jesus Christ, and have a full understanding of the Bible. Only then will you have the conviction and discernment to maintain godly standards for a potential spouse. Your mission is not to be physically "irresistible" to the opposite sex, but to exhibit the fact that you understand your God-centered role in a marriage.
You won't waste your time with anyone who's incompatible with your beliefs and standards. Your trust in the Lord will lead you to the person He chooses for you.
God bless! ✝️❤️
In the same way, you wives, be subject to your own husbands so that
even if any of them are disobedient to the word, they may be won over
without a word by the behavior of their wives, as they observe your pure
and respectful behavior. Your adornment must not be merely the external—braiding the hair, wearing gold jewelry, or putting on apparel; but it
should be the hidden person of the heart, with the imperishable quality
of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is precious in the sight of God.
- 1 Peter 3:1-4
