What the good guys are looking for in a woman.

I am very sorry to subject you to another multi-part series, but there is no way around it. Let me start by saying, I am writing on this subject, because God has laid this on my heart as something that is necessary. Girls are growing up with damaged or nonexistent relationships with their fathers, the men who are supposed to be the defenders. And sadly, there are too few descent men to stand up for these girls.

These girls need to understand what it means for a man to care for them, not because of what they can trade for his care, but simply because they are. I hope that you are blessed by this, and I hope that you may use this to help some girl that is, as so many are, struggling to figure out who she is and why she isn’t comfortable in her own skin. So, with that being said, here is a list of what the good guys are looking for, and my first installment.

1. A sincere relationship with God
2. Modest
3. Kind
4. Sense of humor
5. Courageous
6. Trustworthy
7. Willing to be alone

1. A sincere relationship with God is of the utmost importance. Simply put, good guys want a girl that will not trade any part of her relationship with God for them. The reason I used the word sincere, is that sincerity is something that is self-evident. You can’t just say you are sincere about something. Anyone can say that they sincerely love God, but if you are not sincere, there will be ample evidence in your life. There is a distinct and clearly visible difference in a girl that sincerely loves God, and one that says she loves God because she thinks that is what the guy wants to hear. In accounting parlance, a good guy is looking for a spiritual asset, not a spiritual liability. He wants a person who will add to his relationship with God, not take away from it. You see, in finding a girl that loves God the way she is supposed to, he has found a girl who can love him the way she is supposed.
