Five Things to Look for in a Future Wife

DAY 4 OF 5

A woman of integrity is honest, reliable, and principled. She stands firm in her beliefs, even when it's difficult. This quality ensures trust and respect in your relationship. Look for someone whose words and actions align, who takes responsibility for her mistakes, and who treats others with respect regardless of who they are. The Proverbs speak strongly about the importance of a wife’s character and integrity, which we see in today’s Scripture from Proverbs 12:4 and 31:25.

Nancy has never lied to me. Seriously, she has never lied to me. She is a woman of integrity. The fact that she has always been honest with me has built an unshakable trust in our marriage. Nancy has always been ahead of me in our faith. God has used her in so many ways to refine me. I know she expects the same qualities out of me that I see in her. She has made me a better man. It’s like a picture of the “transformation” that Proverbs 12 talks about.

As a counselor, I see the difference in a marriage where the husband and wife both have integrity. They still have problems to deal with but they are dealing with them on a whole different level than couples where there is no integrity. Here is a great example in this quote from Andy Stanley, “Are you the person the person you’re looking for is looking for?” Don’t compromise on integrity.

Prayer:

Father, I pray that my future wife will love you dearly and be a woman of integrity. In Jesus’ name. Amen
