Many singles that I know have a list of requirements that they want their potential mate to fill. I, myself, have one of those lists. It was super long until I read an article this morning that has shortened the list to the core. The author of the article was stating how when she was younger she had this long laundry list of things that she wanted in a mate but that the more she grew and matured, the more she had to re-evaluate her list. I thought about this and came to the conclusion that the article really made a lot of sense because the girl I was when I made my list about 8 years ago has blossomed into this mature woman and I have found that my needs now are not the same as before.
Like many women, I had the stereotypical list of requirements. I wanted tall, dark, and handsome. Rich was definitely on the list, and so forth and so on. It would be factual if I say that I had at least 40 requirements that my potential mate had to fulfill. But I took some time this morning to re-evaluate myself and that l-i-s-t. When I finished the list, it only had about 5 requirements. Well look at me!! Because I believe that God is a matchmaker and can bring the right person into my life, I am trusting Him to bring me someone that has a personal relationship with Him. If he has a personal relationship with God and respects HIM, then I can trust that he will respect and love me as my FATHER does. What more can a girl ask for. If he is Spirit led then all the rest will fall into place... That's my new list! Kudos to me...I love you God!!!
