How to Identify Your Soul Mate

Think about your significant other. Are they really the one you would want holding your hand during the darkest hours of your life? Look even deeper. Is your present boy/girlfriend the type who would offer you assistance during the time of grief? Unbelievably, there are numerous men (women) out here who offer absolutely NO comfort to hurting women (men). And no, it does not matter whether they are married to those women (men) or not! I wish you could see some of the personal letters that pastors and men of God receive from married people. Yes, some of them are happy, praise God! However, the ones who are not happy are miserable. There are no in between. Either you are happy in a marriage or you are not. There are married women (men) writing saying their husbands (wives) never show authentic affection towards them, never offer expressions of love for them. That is real. Since it is so real, God desires that women (men) are exceptionally careful when choosing a mate. Notice I did not say that women (men) should FIND a mate! I said, "Choose." There is a huge difference.
Turn in your Bible to Proverbs 18:22. It says "that He who finds a wife finds a good thing" Interpretation: MEN find women. Women should not be out trying to find a man! HOWEVER, once found, the woman can then choose to be with the man or to wait to be found by a different man.

What to Look for When Choosing a Mate
Proverbs 20:6 states, who can find a faithful man? The fact that the question is asked is indicative of the fact that there are not many faithful men out there. However, there is good news.

The good news is that JESUS knows where the faithful men are! Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary offers several excellent definitions of the word faithful:
