hello there Im new at this chat thing, Im not sure if it is me or what is going on. Im waiting on God to bring a Godly man into my life. but, because of recent events in my life Im haveing a very hard time trusting anyone. I know what God has said to me, that I made the right choice & Im happy of that. so what to do in the mean time?? I know the bible says " he that findth a wife, findth a good thing". is it wrong to go to sites like christian mingle or e harmony?? Iam a woman after God's own heart, I kknow that if you put God frist in your life, and 1 in your realationship everything will be good. I do know that my next realationship will be the way God wants it. 100% pure & I mean what I say. Im so tired of men talking christian and doing another. so I look for feed back. thank you all & God Bless
 
Sorry, many are called but very few are chosen, it is hard, hard, hard to find someone who is more than talk but actually lives the faith.
Going on eHarmony & other sites has all the same problems of going out with men in your church. Only sin is wrong & that is not a sin.
It is cheaper to go on christiandatingforfree.com & fusion101 both free. Keep praying, believing & keep evaluating with the Word.
 
I'm wondering that too dough57. Not that it really matters to me.
 
I always start by telling women that I'm the bad guy. Its sets the bar low enough to make a mistake or two and surprise them with your real character. In a tongue and cheek way, its almost like humility. ;)
 
Hahaha!!! Liamson, we all mess when we expect the so called good man to be an angel. That is why most of us will end up being disappointed. Just see the other as a normal human being who is bound to err, give him/her that benefit of doubt and trust God to help you out. :D
 
a good guy? hm . . . .basically he is what he says he is. when my future guy shows up and tells me that he is christian well i expect him to be christian. not some luke warm guy who likes to "have fun" on Saturdays and beg forgiveness on Sundays.

a guy that says that hes going to get a job and keep a job (my sisters ex couldn't seem to get that one down)

someone who actually loves their wife as much as he loves himself because once you're married you become ONE.

everyone has their short comings. thats to be expected. and they're easily overlooked as long as that person is giving as much energy as they should to the relationship

P.S. (this advice works both ways) >_^
 
I recently started reading a book called, "Boundaries in Dating" by Henry Cloud and John Townsend. I think you will find it helpful. It addresses a lot of the things you mentioned about trust, honesty, and behaviors associated with dating.
 
I guess, it's just really a matter of trusting God completely.
To patiently wait for the Godly man that is made only for you.
God will give it to you in his time.:)

I am also praying and waiting for my man. thy his will be done...:)
It's hard, most of the time you loose patience, but we have to believe that God will work in our lives if we are obedient to him, that we do Trust his words with all of our Hearts and Soul. Proverbs 3:5
And lastly, Matthew 21:22 " If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in Prayers"

;):)
 
Im trusting God to make mine go away :D

i say that with loooooove ;)

Good Man sounds so funny ... We girls are not perfect :D
 
marinemom5740, I usualy wouldn't answer that. Actually, I'm new around here and have never used the forum.
But you're asking something about going into sites like those you mentioned to find a Godly man.
Honestly, my advice is for you not to go there.

The simple action, the fact that you want to find a real good man, is not wrong. We all want (or should want, though there are exceptions) to find a nice Godly guy, who walks by faith and with who we can constitute a family that will worship the Lord.
That's the key: WORSHIP the Lord. All we do, we have to do to worship Him. That's why we were created. That's the reason we are here: for His glory.
When you go into one of those sites you mentioned, your purpose is to find someone. You are not going there because of the Glory of God.

"So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God."(1 Corinthians 10:31)

When you start a relationship without a previous friendship(whose purpose is the glory of the Lord) you are not allowing yourself to know the flaws of the other. You both have created a "romantic" environment that doesn't allow you to REALLY know each other. So, it's like starting a "fake" relationship, I don't know if you understand it. It's starting a relationship with something that can destroy it. He won't show his flaws to you if he's interested in a romantic relationship with you. And that's the purpose of people who go to those sites, even if they are christians.

So, my advice is that you wait and give your sentimental life for God to take care, and the same with the rest of your life. I know that you think you've already gave it to Him, but I also have been through the experience of trying to take care of my own life, when I thought that I had put it on the hands of God.

Sis, I really wish I have helped you, that's the sincere wish of my heart.
God bless you!

Yikes...you do know that's like dangling a carrot in front of the type of woman who wants to "fix" you, right? hahaha
 
I think we overthink this. If we are living our lives to the fullest, being about the things God has called us to, and spending time with other believers, surely we are bound to cross paths with men who want the same things we do.

Hmm... we got dad's dog "fixed" the other day. No thanks. Another reason I'm never getting married.

No it doesn't evelina. It is just curiosity. Single not dating at my age clearly means I have no intention of getting married. I have a curious mind.
