Choose a man with a good heart no matter what his financial status is

Feb 10, 2020 | Family & Life, Featured

<ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:block" data-ad-client="ca-pub-2844138770334366" data-ad-slot="3792955255" data-ad-format="auto" data-full-width-responsive="true">

Growing up, I was taught to look for a guy who’s financially established – who can provide a comfortable life, dream house, etc.

But I thank God for saving me from men (suitors) who can provide me a good life in this world standard but missed the biggest trait to look for when choosing a man to marry. 

Sadly, some of these guys are living a-not-so-good life now (I heard some cheated on their partner, some are into gambling and etc.) 

I am thankful that I chose a man who has a good heart. A man who is a work in progress. A man whom I can share my dreams with and build those dreams together. 

Inside the reality of married life you’ll see that having a big house, huge savings accounts are only secondary..

You’ll prefer someone whom you can talk to about anything, someone who’s also a good father to your children, someone who’s faithful, someone you can trust. 

Someone who prioritizes you over anything else. 

Someone who shares the load of parenting with you.. 

Someone who can make you laugh when life is heavy and hard. 

Someone who can see your worth and makes  you feel like he won the jackpot by the way he looks at you.. 

Someone who will cheer you on your passion..

Someone who is bold enough too to correct you when you’re wrong.. 

Most of all, a man who has a good heart not because he is a perfect guy, he is a work in progress like us, but he learns to love you better because He first loves God before anything else. 

Though he is not a millionaire, His God is a Great Provider, Generous Dad and Faithful Father. 

If I would have an advice to the youth today in choosing a man to marry, there is nothing wrong with men who are financially stable so don’t get me wrong. There are also rich, established and successful men who are good men as well. 

It’s just sad that practicality sometimes wins over what truly matters. Choose a man who has a good heart and loves God more than you.

Again work in progress doesn’t mean he is a lazy, a man who doesn’t have a dream nor vision in life. 

Money is just a tool, a good tool to provide for the needs  and wants of the family but money is not everything. Indeed there’s no price tag to a happy family – only God at the center is the key.

Don’t be afraid to marry a work in progress man.

      I am with you on that. The good man also go through hell, when they try there best to built a good relationship with his wife and family. Then get dropped because the wife don’t realy understand and leave. So what does a woman realy wants. Who is like that

    Good read But I met someone who loved me and treated me like a queen but he didnโ€™t have a road map and vision. He was into online scam and he kept giving himself excuses instead of pushing himself up. Sometimes I feel guilty for leaving but thatโ€™s not the kind of man I prayed for. Yes he acted like he was in love but was he really? Yes love is important but I want to build with a man genuinely.

    This is really encouraging to me, especially @this time when I am making a decision on a life partner.for now I am actually more financially stable than my fiancee,but the special trait I can never take away from him is that he has such a good heart and a beautiful personality,he loves God and place me after God in his life.even though he knows I am more financially stable than he is,he still doesn’t let me spend my money on anything rather he takes care of his responsibility and tries to develop himself and career more.he is such a blessing to me.with this ur write-up I am no longer afraid to take d next step with him.he is a work in progress.

    I agree this great advice. My so called guy sent me this amongst other messages that are mixed one including why marriage doesn’t work. He is confusing and thus it hurts. Perhaps God is telling me to choose differently.

    I wish my wife would think like that. Sometimes being content and being stuck confuses her. She says she’s content, but it’s different with stuck with me. She can never be content with me because she did not dreamt of me. That I know.
