Christian brides approach dating with a mental list of what they require in a potential partner. It could be that they
want someone tall, dark and handsome. There may be lots of other requirements not quite so obvious that they have clung to
over the time that they have been in christian singles dating service. On the face of it having a mental list of must haves
seems like a good idea for christian wives. After all, nobody wants to make a big mistake and end up with a totally unsuitable
Christian wife. However, in some ways if someone enters Christian singles dating because the other person had a full list
of ticks against the list then this could lead to problems once the real business of a dating has started. It could also
lead to someone not meeting the person the lord made for them because they do not have all the persons
requirements. Some christian dating advice is that people change and Christians are no exception. In fact we are called to
change and while we change we may at times not be the same person as we were when we met the other person. This introduces
a challenge into any christian dating interracial singles and calls for something special that non Christians do not have.
The lord has supplied us with the sacrificial kind of love and is essential for any kind of successful relationship to work
out in the long term. So how does having the lords kind of love make a difference to how or whether we have a list of requirements
in a potential date. It certainly does not mean we abandon any idea of exercising discernment and judgement about who we should
go out with. Common sense surrounded in prayer is the key here. What the lords love means is that once we are in a relationship
we must draw on the lords love to enable us to love that person even if they at times are not able to tick the place on the
list when once they did. This moves the responsibility from them to us. Then when hard times come we will be used to loving
the lord way and not expect perfection from the other singles.
