Men With Purpose Finding A Good Thing
I got talking to a colleague of mine today and he made striking points about marriage. He said, God knew that man was ready for a mate when he saw that all he had placed in his hand had been duly taken care of; the garden, the animals, and every creeping thing. God has placed in the hand of every man in this present time a duty which he expects you to fulfil.
I once engaged a young man in a conversation as i always do. I asked him "What is your purpose in life" this question sprung up from the fact that he had so many failed relationships and he needed to know why?. I simply wanted to know if he understood God's reason for bringing a help mate and the role he was to play.
I broke it down a little, it is very important for every man to know that he is the "Head of the church". His mental, spiritual, financial (yes!), Physical well being is in check.
Mental- most people have the notion that only pastors read books or the word so they relax and wait for what the pastor has to say every service day. Develop your mental being by spending time with the word and asking God questions in areas you don't understand. Develop your mental being by reading books that will spur you to be a better you and to help you fulfil your purpose.
Spiritual- " i am not a prayer type, i pray the little i can" listen, the instruction God gave to man was to pray without ceasing not spend without ceasing or invest in naira bet without ceasing or gamble with every networking business. It is a commandment for a man who is a leader of the family. Many generations are looking to you, please spend time inquiring on God about your partner, business, family and even purpose
Financial- "Most girls in this 21st century want already made men, they don't want to start small" my brother shake your head wella because you are about to get a shocker. God gave man a responsibility, he gave him land, animals, trees bearing fruits etc but the truth is man did not just relax and spend that which God had given him but rather he sort out ways to till the soil and plant. Please don't be decieved by the above saying of most men. It must not be a job paying in dollars but as long as it is getting you something in which you are able to plan with then God will bless the labour of your hands.
Physical- Biko our men try and exercise now. Abeg we are relying on you to support us. If you are not leading by example then who will lead us. Burn the fat, get to the gym and keep fit. It is important. Forget that line of "i am handsome just the way i am" you are! but bros help a sister. You want your girlfriend or wife to look fit but you are not making an effort to reduce your belle. "Body exercise profiteth little" but in that little there is great gain.
Be committed to God's work and you will see the manifestation of the promise, that when you find your wife "Good things will follow". Balance everything and see God do wonders in your life.
NB- it also applies to women
