Trait #1
You Will Be Attracted to Him
You know what they say, God don’t like ugly … OK, so the phrase refers
to a person’s behavior, not their looks; however, it’s a suitable quote for
what we’re about to discuss.
Believers are oftentimes encouraged to accept that looks shouldn’t
matter or be as important, to focus on the inside because that’s what
counts. I agree. Looks should not be the focal point when seeking a
partner; however, they shouldn’t be ignored. God isn’t trying to set you up
with someone you’re not attracted to.
Think about it?
Why would God want this? It’s an important piece of a romantic
relationship. It’s the reality of how things are; yet, attraction becomes the
excuse people use when they want you to settle or accept less. They’ll
claim you’re being “too picky”, and because they want you to rush to be
with someone, they’ll encourage you to overlook a lack of attraction.
For instance, if a person doesn’t want their looks used against them,
they’ll downplay the importance to avoid hurting their chances of being
with you. Family members and friends will dismiss it because they want to
connect you with someone they know may not be the most attractive in
your eyes. None of it means looks aren’t important, or that you should buy
into the idea that God wants you to be with someone you’re not attracted
to.
Looks vs. Attraction
There’s a difference between looks and attraction. This is where I

important it’s the specifics about a person’s physical attributes that you
need to avoid. I don’t believe you should have a list. If the requirements
include this man being six feet tall, with a specific hair and eye color, and
a particular build, then yes, that shouldn’t be so important. The package in
which God will send the person He has for you may not be what you
