Sisters in Christ: Becoming the Standard You Seek in a Relationship


Dear Sisters, as you navigate the world of dating, it’s crucial to remember that the standards you set for a potential partner should reflect the qualities you embody yourself. When a man expresses interest in you, it's a meaningful opportunity to reflect on whether you are living up to the expectations you have for him. 

It’s natural to have specific qualities and values in mind when considering a partner—qualities such as faithfulness, integrity, kindness, and respect. These standards are important and should be non-negotiable. However, it’s equally vital to ask yourself: Am I embodying these same qualities in my own life?

For example, if you expect a man to be grounded in faith, are you actively living out your own faith journey with dedication and sincerity? If you value honesty and respect, are these values evident in how you conduct your relationships and interactions? Becoming the person you seek in a partner is not only about meeting these standards yourself but also about ensuring that you are continuously growing and aligning with your expectations.

Consider the qualities you admire and hope for in a relationship. Reflect on how you can cultivate those traits within yourself. It’s about striving for personal growth and maturity, making sure that your actions, decisions, and character align with the ideals you cherish. 

This approach is not about perfection but about progress. It’s about being intentional in your personal development and spiritual growth. By becoming the person you hope to attract, you set a powerful example and create a relationship foundation based on mutual respect and shared values.

Additionally, this self-reflection can enhance your discernment. When you are aligned with your values, you are better equipped to recognize whether a man’s intentions and character align with yours. It allows you to approach dating with clarity and confidence, knowing that you are both seeking a relationship grounded in the same principles.

In essence, as you seek a partner who meets your standards, ensure that you are also striving to embody those same standards. This alignment not only enriches your personal growth but also sets the stage for a relationship that reflects God’s love and purpose.

May you find strength and wisdom in your journey, continuously growing into the person you aspire to be and attracting a partner who complements your spiritual and personal aspirations in Jesus Name.

Hope Expression celebrates you
