"I wonder how many women are really godly women interested in making a man happy."
Both the husband and wife are to treat each other as better, more important than themselves. When we honor each other and forego selfish wishes, instead seeking to serve each other, it is amazing how quality friendships can develop.
Meanwhile, I have to agree with your quote--many women do look at the baubles and apparent security of the guy -- income, house, etc. rather than verify that he is walking with the Lord. God gives, God takes away. Health emergency, mudslide, car wrecks, strokes, etc. All those possessions and wealth can be gone in a flash.
One question I've asked myself when I thought I was in love was, "if this girl had a stroke and I had to hand-feed her and bathe her daily for 40 years, would I do it?" Not thinking the worst case, rather keeping in mind my commitment to marry once and once only...a reality check. I wonder how many women could give an honest yes to such a question .... (sigh)
Agreed.
