My very good friend (and a super cool pastor at EWC), Will Doss, asked a very good question last night.
He said, “What is one trait you would tell your son or daughter to look for in a spouse?”
I answered with a broad “someone with a heart after God.” I just tend to believe that when we have a heart after Christ, everything else follows as it is supposed to.
My dad condensed it to “someone who is both faithful and loyal.” In other words, someone who does exactly what he or she says he or she is going to do.
Each of us individually should bring glory to Christ. I think a good question to answer when entering into a marriage is “Will we bring more glory to Christ together than we will apart?”
What would you (or did you) tell your son or daughter? What is one trait you would encourage someone to look for in a spouse?
