what to look for in a relationship
WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN RELATIONSHIP
If I ask most people what do they look for in a person before relating with such a one unto marriage?
The most answers would be, someone that’ll care for me and in the context of care they meant, someone that’ll buy them this and that, and makes sure they have anything their eyes desires to possess and they may add, ‘someone who would not cheat on me.’
When we base our love on material things, we’ll easily be deceived, everyone can give us materials things but there is something everyone can’t give to us and that’s attention, patience and commitment.
The devil offered Christ the world and its entire glory
Yes, any man can spend money on you and buy you this and that, but it’s that what you really want in your marital relationship? In marriage, you don’t forget your sorrows when you are eating the money but you can forget your don’t have the money when are blessed with a committed person who is patient and pays attention to you.
Perfectly defining what you really want will help you find who would give that to you. Wedding ceremony doesn’t change someone into who he/she is not. Whoever gives you money without attention wouldn’t change, whoever comes to you only when he/she needs attention and not when you need same wouldn’t change etc. don’t hope they’ll change unless they are making efforts to by themselves.
Though people may not be exactly what we want them to be, but at least, let their attention be pointed to the direction of who we’d love them be to us.
God bless you
