You heard it, this isn’t about games or pretenses. It’s about being genuine, being yourself, and creating a relationship that’s solid, healthy, and super vibey, all while staying true to biblical principles.
First things first, know your worth.
Yup, that’s rule number one. As it says in Psalm 139:14, “I am fearfully and wonderfully made.” You are a queen, remember that! You deserve someone who recognizes your worth and treats you accordingly. Never settle for less.
Now, getting his attention. Here’s a secret: Be yourself.
Authenticity is attractive. Show him who you really are, your interests, dreams, fears, quirks. Let him see the real you, not a filtered version. As Paul writes in Ephesians 4:25, “Each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to your neighbor…”
And don’t forget about your personal growth.
You’re on a journey of becoming the best version of yourself, right? So, keep going. Chase your dreams, level up your skills, stay true to your values. Remember, a confident, ambitious woman is irresistible.
Communication is key.
You’ve heard this a million times, and that’s because it’s the truth. Ephesians 4:29 guides us, “Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up…”. Express your feelings, your expectations. Be open and honest.
Next, give him space.
Every person needs some ‘me’ time, to chill, to reflect, to enjoy his hobbies. It doesn’t mean he’s distancing from you, he’s just recharging. This is an expression of love and respect, principles that underpin all of Jesus’ teachings.
Remember, the chase doesn’t end once you’re in a relationship.
Keeping the spark alive is essential. Keep dating each other. Little surprises, cute text messages, adventurous dates – keep the excitement going. Proverbs 5:18 reminds us to “rejoice in the wife of your youth.”
And finally, respect and support him.
Be his cheerleader (I know, I know, but ride with me here). Celebrate his achievements, encourage his passions, and stand by him in tough times. Show him that you’re not just a lover, but a friend and a partner.
Renowned relationship expert, Dr. Emerson Eggerichs, beautifully said, “Love is important but respect is the key to your man’s heart.” That’s the truth, ladies! Treat your man with respect and love, and he will cherish you.
We all know love isn’t a one-size-fits-all game. It’s about finding someone who complements you, who understands and values you.
Let love take its course. You’ve got this! Let the wisdom from 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 guide you: “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud…”
Keep it pure, keep it a buck, and stay true to your values. We’re in this together, fam!
