Dear Christine, good men are hard to find – men of value, truth, honour, love and wisdom.
We women have raised a world of men who are cheats; thieves; abusers of women, drugs and alcohol.
We have raised men who have no respect for women; who don’t support their own; have no self-control and no love. Men have no idea what is a woman’s worth!
Our men have left us to take care of our children alone. We must try to be the best mothers. We need to raise our children to respect, love and appreciate.
We need to get through to them by saying, “Yes, your fathers have gone, but you don’t have to follow in their footsteps. You can be a good man or woman and give others all the love your father never gave you. Walk in integrity and wisdom, show love and respect to others.”
Women, rise up, since you have a big job on your hands. Take control; don’t let men get you down, demand respect. Don’t fall victim to them because you want a job, have bills and children to provide for. God will provide for you and them.
I was searching for a good man for over ten years, and I found when I was busy looking and praying for one, my “Man” was there for me. He showed me He was there for me all the time, especially last year when I lost my job and my mortgage.
I was paying rent and loans and supporting my children all on my own, or so I thought. Things heated up after I lost my job, my income and I had no man.
I was given notice to move and the landowner wanted her land. The person who owned the house had a man taking up the rent and he was overcharging me by $300.
God bless her heart, because when she heard about that, she sold me the house, practically for nothing. Yes, I had no way to get money, because my savings were held by the bank and I had no way to go. But a very special “Man” spoke to people’s hearts.
He isn’t finished helping me because I got several jobs, but all the pay was too small; so He gave me two or three days a week working for more than the five days I was working for.
I am so glad I was raised with family who trusted this “Man” and respected and believed in Him. If only we would love this “Man” as we should, our lives would be so much better.
My life was a mess – bad marriage that sucked my life and my children’ lives, but we are all loving this “Man” and He is great. He showed me I couldn’t find a man in church, in the disco, in town or country or even by writing you, Christine. A part of me was looking for my perfect man, but He touched me and I heard Him say: “I am here, you don’t have to be alone.”
Sometimes we waste time looking for what is right beside us all the while. Maybe one day he will place a man on earth for me, but for now I’m happy and contented with Him.
My God is my best man ever. He is my friend, my lover, my joy and my hope. I didn’t find my perfect man on earth, but I found the perfect man who is everything I ever wanted. – MY?PERFECT MAN?
Dear My Perfect Man,
Yours is a testimony of triumph over challenges through faith. It demonstrates how God is real and at work in people’s lives every day. Thank you for sharing with other readers and I hope they are inspired to also seek comfort in His wisdom in every facet of their lives.
