Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.
The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil.
She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.
She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands.
.................................And it goes on and on
Apart from this, he wants the physical specs to be as imagined in his head... Tall, Fair, Graceful, Slim, Nice Body Figure, Pretty Face, Nice Smile.....
But I daresay I have not seen that Perfect Woman.....Because I know I am not perfect. But I strive towards perfection every day as I look unto my perfect Father.
It is also every man's job to be the Perfect Man, the Perfect Husband, the Perfect Father, the Perfect Lover...
Let's take an example for Jesus Christ. Yes He loved and cared for "his bride" too - her name, Ecclesia (the church).
Ephesians 5: 25 - 31 presents how He cared. He gave Himself for Ecclesia... That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
Are you ready to be "The Perfect Man" by giving your life for "Your Perfect Woman"? Are you ready to nurture and take care of her, sanctifying and cleansing with the washing of water, presenting her - not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing? Are you?
My dear friend, the bottomline is that You must be the Perfect Man to get the Perfect Woman and It is your job to create "The Perfect Woman". When You find a wife, the Bible says, you receive favour from the LORD. And you receive the wisdom and understanding to mold "The Perfect Woman"
Man, it is your responsibility to mold "The Perfect Woman".
Nice piece, be careful how people might translate to mould the perfect wife they may take this to mean, battering her etc. Sad but it happens
ReplyDeleteI hope not. Molding takes time. It is like nurturing a plant to get the best fruit. You have to cultivate for the plant to bring the most beautiful flower ever.
DeleteThe bible says "He who finds a wife..." and not "He who molds a wife..." How is it the responsibility of a man to mold a perfect woman?
ReplyDeletePls I'll like to have a thoughtful response to this.
