I do not know that it has to quite like that bad, but many are the girls who I would not go out with because they were not truly interested in serving God but rather trying to see how many boys they could catch.
If you wanna be happy
For the rest of your life,
Never make a pretty woman your wife,
So from my personal point of view,
Get an ugly girl to marry you.

A pretty woman makes her husband look small
And very often causes his downfall.
As soon as he marries her, then she starts
To do the things that will break his heart,
But if you make an ugly woman your wife,
You'll be happy for the rest of your life,
An ugly woman cooks her meals on time,
She'll always give you peace of mind.

Re: Just a thought.

I love the biblical story of Esther and how God kept her hidden until time for her to be prepared to become queen. I know of some precious, dedicated, consecration, young ladies, three in particular, that I believe God has been, and is preparing for some godly men.

When the time is right, God will bring them forth and present them to the dedicated, consecrated young men HE has also been preparing.

No, I won't reveal them, but have prayed and encouraged them. They are not "trying" to "find" a man, but they are "waiting" on the LORD to bring the one He has been preparing for them. They are beautiful, pure, love God, and they know that God gives HIS BEST to those who leave the choice with HIM! Their parents and the older ladies have reminded them of the importance of waiting on the LORD. There were some who chose not to wait, and the stories are sad indeed! Some do not like for anyone to tell them much!

It always worth the wait! I could tell the story of my own life. How God brought the man I married 52 1/2 yrs ago to me. However, I had the prayers of a righteous man, and his faithful wife, (my late parents) and those prayers availed much.

I've probably said enough for now!

That was the one that I was thinking of.
A friend of mine and I were at work and this song started to play over his Pandora player. I like to have fallen out of my chair from laughing.

Well, I can only say that I am waiting myself (though with less patience than I had a few years ago).
