Why I Only Want A Godly Man

A man who loves God and puts him first will never give up on you and will always know your worth.

I was never one to think about religion too much when it came to pursuing a relationship with someone, I simply pursued them because I liked them for the person that they were. However, after becoming closer to God and strengthening my relationship with him in the past year, I realized that having a man with the same religious values as me was extremely important.

Now, I am in no way trying to say those of other religions are not worthy enough or that they have something wrong with them, I am simply stating my personal views when it comes to pursuing a relationship with someone else.

I have tried relationships with those of different religions and the controversy of beliefs and views seemed to always get in the way of our relationship. Wanting a man who has the same values and beliefs as me brings us closer together in my eyes. With that being said, for me, being a Christian does not consume my entire life. However, my religion does play a role in the woman that I have become today and how I go about certain views and takes on things in my life.

When it comes to relationships I take them very seriously. I am not someone who simply dates another to pass the time. Even though I am only twenty, when I date a man I am hoping for a lasting future with him. Being with a man who puts God first shows his love for his religion and our Father who died for us and gave us all life. If a man is willing to put his whole heart and life in the hands of God and to serve God and his word then I know without a doubt that he will be good to me. A godly man will never give up on me and he will know that I have a purpose in this world.

Being devoted to Christ and worshipping our Lord is something I take great pride and love in doing. I want someone to worship God with and become closer to him and the wisdom and guidance he has for us with.

God put both of us on this Earth for a reason and brought us together as a couple for a reason. To love and cherish one another is to honor God and his love for us.

Knowing and having faith that there is a man that God put on this Earth to be my other half and go through the journeys of life with is truly incredible.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
