Finding a Husband

Wait patiently for the LORD; be strong and courageous. Wait patiently for the LORD!

Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, with whom there is no change or shifting shadow.

The LORD God also said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make for him a suitable helper.”

But the LORD said to Samuel, “Do not consider his appearance or height, for I have rejected him; the LORD does not see as man does. For man sees the outward appearance, but the LORD sees the heart.”

He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the LORD.

Husbands, love your wives and do not be harsh with them.

For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh.

Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.

Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, for God has said: “Never will I leave you, never will I forsake you.”

And without faith it is impossible to please God. For anyone who approaches Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him.
