This blog will be shorter than the last as there isn't a whole lot I want to convey from this next book but there is some Truth about some crucial spiritual disciplines in a potential mate that I think will encourage you.
The Book of Romance by Tommy Nelson
Three Questions to Ask Yourself About the Potential Spouse...
"As you get to know this person, look for the spiritual disciplines and spiritual direction evident in the life of the person. Don't rely on "someday I want to" or "I know I need to" statements. Look for the evidence TODAY in their life.
1. Does this person have a daily quiet time with the Lord? "Few spiritual disciplines are as revealing as this one. If a person has a daily quiet time with the Lord then that person is putting himself into a position to be led and directed by the Lord daily. His faith is alive and active. He or she has disciplined their walk with the Lord.
2. Is He/She involved actively in a Christian church? "They must be a deeply committed member and be counted to be faithful through good times and bad. Serving the Lord in every aspect. "
3. Does the person desire to pursue the same type of spiritual life and ministry that you desire? "Find a person who is running in the same direction at the same speed as you are and if you continue alongside each other you just may decide you want to run together."
