This is the best advice I have encountered on how to attract the right girl: You must become the type of person you want to attract. And for Christians, this means allowing God significant access to your deepest character flaws, scars, and insecurities, that he can begin changing you. He can do this if you are willing to be intentional about drawing near to him in prayer, meditation, the reading of his word, and the seeking of good counsel. It is not an overnight formula, but if you commit yourself to this process, you will put yourself in position to draw in a person who is loyal, trustworthy, and most of all, righteous. He desires for each of us to heal from our wounds so we can become balanced, confident, and secure. In so doing, He can change not only the type people you attract, but the type of people you are attracted to.
David eventually met the right girl and got married. He is finally in a healthy, God-centered relationship. But he didn’t find the right girl until he took time to first focus on his own healing process.
The drama and difficulty with relationships you have experienced in the past can be used for a purpose: To reveal to you how God wants to change you to be more like him. To start the process, begin with this prayer: God, reveal to me the areas I need healing and growth so I can be more like you. Help me to be the person of character you want me to be. Help me to attract and be attracted to someone who values you above all else.
She is out there. Now, you must allow God to prepare you for her.
This is an excerpt from The Tin Soldiers: Become Who You Are Meant to Be. It’s an essay/devotional for guys who are looking for new direction, purpose, and hope. It’s also for women who have guys who have birthdays. It’s also for people who like to laugh and hear a good story amidst their daily spiritual reading. It’s also for guys who don’t read (much).
