You have some expectations<br /></div><div>too. In a world that has become increasingly corrupt</div><div>and vulgar, you can stand above the crowd by the way you</div><div>choose to live.

Devotion. A real man will chase a girl who chases</div><div>after God and is unwilling to compromise and give in</div><div>to the world.

Guys search for a young woman</div><div>who has the ability to discern and make good decisions.</div><div><br /></div><div>3. Encouragement. Throughout the Bible, we are</div><div>instructed to encourage one another, inspiring others</div><div>with our words and good works. Learn to build people up,</div><div>not tear them down.

(Eccl. 7:28.) So guys, if</div><div>you want to be that 1 in 1000, you can separate yourself from</div><div>the pack by living up to these 3 uncommon characteristics.</div><div><br /></div><div>1. A spirit of desire. Proverbs 21:25 says that the</div><div>desire of a lazy man kills him. Girls are looking for</div><div>young men who have vision, drive, and desire for life</div><div>and are willing to work to reach their goals.</div><div><br /></div><div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_u1R0fWCGij8/SIHBPDuEUcI/AAAAAAAAAA0/RpB44jku7H0/s1600-h/lady+dating+online.jpg"><img src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_u1R0fWCGij8/SIHBPDuEUcI/AAAAAAAAAA0/RpB44jku7H0/s320/lady+dating+online.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5224669507167211970" style="float: left; margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px; cursor: pointer;" border="0" /></a>2. A spirit of kindness. Proverbs 19:22 tells us that</div><div>kindness is what is desired in a good man. Learn</div><div>proper etiquette and manners in the way you should</div><div>treat people.</div><div><br /></div><div>3. A spirit of justice. A just person is someone who</div><div>has learned to distinguish right from wrong and is not</div><div>afraid to stand up for truth. Don’t back down to the</div><div>pressure of friends to do wrong or compromise. Have</div><div>some backbone and be counted.</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7152518030414469265-868781174817418916?l=dating-tricks-and-tips.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>saurabhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11081664829814984123noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7152518030414469265.post-19285602756463027862010-07-30T22:49:00.000-07:002010-07-30T22:50:30.896-07:00<div style="color: rgb(51, 153, 153);"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span">CHRISTIAN DATING IS DIFFERENT</span></span></span></div><div><br /></div><div>world’s idea of dating is dangerous at best. That’s why the</div><div>Scripture tells us not to be conformed to this world, but to be</div><div>transformed by the renewing of our minds. (Rom. 12:2.) We</div><div>renew our minds with the knowledge of God’s Word.</div><div>Here are 3 ways a Christian dating experience should be different</div><div>from one in the world.</div><div><br /></div><div>1. In the world, people date to check someone out; a</div><div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_u1R0fWCGij8/SIHAQC2PQMI/AAAAAAAAAAM/qvnxEG8tQLY/s1600-h/Online_dating_service.jpg"><img src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_u1R0fWCGij8/SIHAQC2PQMI/AAAAAAAAAAM/qvnxEG8tQLY/s320/Online_dating_service.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5224668424601288898" style="float: left; margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px; cursor: pointer;" border="0" /></a>Christian date is focused on building someone up.</div><div>Dating in the world is like “trying someone on” like a</div><div>pair of shoes—if they don’t fit quite right for you, just</div><div>disregard them and move on to someone else. A</div><div>Christian’s focus should be on encouraging each other</div><div>in life and in one another’s walk with God.</div><div><br /></div><div>2. The world bases a large part of success in their dates</div><div>on connecting physically, while Christians should be</div><div>prizing spiritual things first. It’s not that you shouldn’t</div><div>be attracted to someone by looks, but maintaining</div><div>sexual purity must be at the top of your commitment to</div><div>each other.</div><div><br /></div><div>3. The world will often lie and deceive to achieve their</div><div>goals in dating. Christians are to be committed to</div><div>integrity and honesty. Don’t try to be someone you are</div><div>not. Tell the truth. If someone doesn’t like the “real</div><div>you,” don’t worry about it. Obviously, that person isn’t</div><div>“the one.”</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7152518030414469265-1928560275646302786?l=dating-tricks-and-tips.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>saurabhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11081664829814984123noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7152518030414469265.post-34520484062345997722010-07-30T22:47:00.000-07:002010-07-30T22:48:58.043-07:00<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large; color: rgb(0, 204, 204);"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span">DATING IS NOT A GAME</span></span></span><br /><div>Dating is not really a biblical word at all. That doesn’t mean</div><div>it’s wrong to go out with someone on a “date.” But it is important</div><div>to remember what the Bible has to say about developing</div><div>romantic friendships. If you begin dating without some clear</div><div>guidelines and boundaries, you are headed for disaster.</div><div>Let’s start by taking a quick glance at what dating is not.</div><div>1. Dating is not for those who aren’t ready. In my</div><div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_u1R0fWCGij8/SIHAQZuVSjI/AAAAAAAAAAc/rVdGYq-hrnk/s1600-h/online_dating_gudda.jpg"><img style="float: left; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_u1R0fWCGij8/SIHAQZuVSjI/AAAAAAAAAAc/rVdGYq-hrnk/s320/online_dating_gudda.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5224668430742145586" border="0" /></a>opinion, dating shouldn’t even be a consideration until</div><div>a young person is at least 16 years old. That’s been</div><div>“the law” with my 3 teenage boys, and they’re doing</div><div>just fine with it. That doesn’t mean you can’t have good</div><div>friendships with the opposite sex; just keep things in a</div><div>group environment.</div><div><br /></div><div>2. Dating is not a great way to “really get to</div><div>know someone.” Why? Because everyone is on best</div><div>behavior during a date. If you really want to get to</div><div>know someone, watch the person at school every day,</div><div>or both of you get a job together at McDonald’s. Eight</div><div>straight hours over a hot greaser full of fries will tell</div><div>you the real tale.</div><div><br /></div><div>3. Dating is not all it’s cracked up to be. Think</div><div>about 2 people out together who hardly know each</div><div>other. They’re young and have limited social skills.</div><div>They have to try to create awkward conversation for</div><div>hours on end. The point is, it’s usually a whole lot</div><div>easier to get to know someone among a group of</div><div>other friends who can help fill those awkward</div><div>moments, keeping things fun.</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7152518030414469265-3452048406234599772?l=dating-tricks-and-tips.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>saurabhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11081664829814984123noreply@blogger.com0
