I find that there are many christian websites that are promoting all sort of online dating services, without knowing who they are really supporting. Click here for a more detailed report on online christian dating services.

June 8, 2005 16:44 - Why Bother With Character Traits?

I have covered in the character traits page on why they are critical to your dating plan and the questions you must ask. But how does one build his/her own character? A person with strong character will go that extra mile with you.

I subscribed to an excellent newsletter written by Jim Rohn, do not be misled by his old white hair and here's something profound he wrote on character:

Creating Your Character is Like an Artist Creating a Sculpture

Could creating your character be likened to an artist creating a sculpture? In my opinion, I believe that character is not something that just happens by itself, any more than a chisel can create a work of art without the hand of an artist guiding it.

In both instances, a conscious decision for a specific outcome has been made. A conscious process is at work. Character is the result of hundreds and hundreds of choices you make that gradually turn who you are, at any given moment, into who you want to be. If that decision-making process is not present, you will still be somebody. You will still be alive, but may have a personality rather than a character.

Character is not something you were born with and can't change like your fingerprint. In fact, because you weren't born with it, it is something that you must take responsibility for creating. I don't believe that adversity by itself builds character and I certainly don't think that success erodes it.

Character is built by how you respond to what happens in your life. Whether it's winning every game or losing every game. Getting rich or dealing with hard times. You build character out of certain qualities that you must create and diligently nurture within yourself. Just like you would plant and water a seed or gather wood and build a campfire.

You've got to look for those things in your heart and in your gut. You've got to chisel away in order to find them. Just like chiseling away the rock in order to create the sculpture that has previously existed only in your imagination.

But do you want to know the really amazing thing about character? If you are sincerely committed to making yourself into the person you want to be, you'll not only create those qualities, but you'll continually strengthen them. And you will recreate them in abundance even as you are drawing on them every day of your life. Just like the burning bush in the biblical book of Exodus, the bush burned but the flames did not consume it.

Character sustains itself and nurtures itself even as it is being put to work, tested, and challenged. And once character is formed, it will serve as a solid, lasting foundation upon which to build the life you desire.

June 9, 2005 16:28 - Needy Dating

Are you currently dating a needy person? Or are you the needy person in your christian dating relationship? These people are so obsess with their needs, they have forgotten about God and His supply. Taken from a book called Sex, Let's Talk About It written by Wendy Treat, she wrote, In every area of christian life, whether you are single or married, when you focus on yourself, another person, on your job, company, boss, business, anything or anyone instead of your heavenly father as the Source of all that you neeed, you are in trouble.

It's time to draw out the sword of the Spirit and meditate on Philippians 4:19, And my God shall spply ALL your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

See it's not some of your needs but ALL your need! (Go to URL)

June 14, 2005 15:53 - Seduction vs Attraction

Why seduce when it's more powerful to attract? Real attraction comes from the inside, and it overflows to the outside! According to dictionary.com, to seduce someone is to lead away from duty, accepted principles, or proper conduct, and to induce to engage in sex. And to attract someone is to cause someone to draw near, to arouse or compel the interest, admiration, or attention of.

To me an attractive person is really someone who not only has the depth of character on the inside but also looks good on the outside. Yes much has been covered on character building and it is the most important attraction makeover you can do but for some people they ought to look good on the outside too!

For the guys, check out this mens fashion website on how to dress well, sorry ladies I have yet come across a nice site on womens fashion, but I managed to located a site on womens health and fitness though. An attractive person is also a healthy person!

June 20, 2005 13:43 - Radical Christian Dating

So what's radical christian dating? How's no kissing or even holding hands until your wedding day for a start? I am really encouraged by what I read today on Bakersfield.com, a report on a christian dating couple, Rubi Norman and Jimmy Zetino. They made a commitment not to kiss or even hold hands until their wedding day!

I would have ridicule this couple no end if I came across this just a few years back, but today I know they are for real because God is real to me too. And Rubi made the same exact statement in this report, My connection to God became so real. If you do not have that connection with God, you will constantly be rationalizing about many aspects of your dating. You will always want the see the biblical evidence that pre-marital sex, living together etc, is wrong.

In another article today, another lady who recently made the headlines in her country for posing nude in her blog said, 'Sexuality also means a real, genuine connection. You're not going to get anywhere with just sex and without the intellectual connection.' Sinning is missing God's mark, and unfortunately her idea of having sex is fine so long as there is an intellectual connection is also common amongst many christian singles I know today.

I suspect there are some today who are reading this who needs to find that connection today. You can regain this connection right now by simply first making a committment to read the Word of God. How can you connect with someone you do not communicate?

And if you are struggling with some addictions with your life, would you repent and seek help today from the Lord? Physical makeover is the easiest, but what we need today is a renewing of connection with our God today. Please let me know if I can pray for you in anyway.
