9 Things Men Look for in a Godly Woman

9 Things Men Look for in
a Godly Woman



A friend asked me recently, "Why are there so many eligible bachelors around?

I mean there are many men
who have everything going for them yet they are still single ... why?" In answering her question, I referred her
to the following words from the sages; "Whether a man shall be made or marred by marriage greatly depends
upon the choice he makes of a wife."

"Nothing is better
than a good woman nor anything worse than a bad one. Before taking the irrevocable step choose well, for
your choice though brief is yet endless."

Men are always careful about the choice of their wives.
That is why you find that a man may go out with just any kind of lady, even shower her with the most expensive of gifts, yet abandons her to marry one who
isn't as exposed, as beautiful, as well connected, as educated as the one he was dating.


In choosing a wife, there are many things a man looks out for, but these 9 stand out:

1. A wise man doesn't marry for beauty and good looks alone, because as we know it, even gold when
seen everyday becomes commonplace, so does the most beautiful face, unless the woman possesses a beautiful nature in her.

2. Men do not choose talkative women, and ladies who cannot keep their secrets.

3. Any woman who cannot rely on reason to solve the daily difficulties in a relationship, and who cannot beseen as her man's best friend, would hinder rather
than help her man grow.

4. In marriage and love relationships, attributes such as gentleness, patience, generosity, loyalty and love,
are far more valuable to a man than any personal attractions or social class, or intellectual accomplishments of a lady. As most happily married
men attest, these qualities contribute more to their happiness in the home.

5. The way a lady dresses is one of the ways that reveals her character according to psychologists. Any
refined, "wife material" woman, will not dress up garishly and tastelessly with a view to display herself.

6. A man wants a good-tempered woman, although it is a very difficult thing to discover from a lady, as
women have a way hiding their tempers in a smiling face.

7. Every man wants to marry an industrious woman especially during these harsh economic times. "A
lazy mistress makes lazy servants, and, what is worse, a lazy mother makes lazy children."

8. While a man will spend on you, and show you love with his money, men still want a woman who is frugal and has the power to abstain from unnecessary expenditure.

9. A woman who fears God, and is prayerful is a treasure to the man.
