What to look for in a husband #2

WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN A HUSBAND

One of the scarcity of life is time -- we've only so much time left to live before we call it a day, so to speak. Given that time is relatively short in the history of humanity, it doesn't really make much of a difference whether we're thinking short-, medium- or long-term.

Notwithstanding the aforesaids, we are wise to make the most of the little time that we have (and go get a husband in the process). And, wise is the husband who numbers his day; mindful that his life is in God's hand. Like a candle whose time is pre-determined; a time to be born, and a time to meet one's Maker.

The book of Proverbs imparts to us that the fear of the LORD our Maker is the beginning of wisdom and pride comes before a fall.

So, I would think that HUMILITY is a critical value to look for in a husband. To put it mildly, you don't want him to be proud or prideful so much so that he 'hastens' his own earthly departure. Rather, he would live his life circumspectly; knowing his speck-space in this vast universe of God, and esteeming others better than himself, just like Jesus Christ.

You would want him to be rich towards God and have a purpose that is beyond his self-centredness. A man who live for your betterment and much more, besides, because he has the attitude of serving His God and his fellows.
