some are blessed with wives
like this but fail to appreciate
what they have.
This is why husbands and
wives need to build a relation-
ship based on love for God and
love for each other.
Then all the rest hikes care of
itself. When problems arise,
they get through it together -
with the help of God and by
helping and supporting each
other.
Many times wives who fit this
description found in the 31st
chapter of Proverbs are able to

So what should a man, or a
woman for that matter, look for
in a mate?
Realizing that beauty is more
than skin deep is the first step
to finding a lifelong faithful
mate. Those who are attracted
only by beauty or other out-
ward appearances have the
wrong priorities to begin with.
I poking for a mate who is con-
siderate, kind, generous, lov-
ing, and cares for others are the
kinds of qualities that should
be desired.
Most of all, finding someone
who believes in God and prac-
tices their faith by showing love
to others should be at the top of
the list.
Husbands who have wives
who fit this description are not
only very fortunate, but also
very blessed. And wives should
feel the same way.
