Trait # 6
He Will Love God
There is no perfect man; therefore, there is no perfect man of God.
Based on our beliefs, we were born into sin, so we’re going to make
mistakes. We all have a process in our lives where we grow, evolve, and
begin to understand how to properly approach life and anything else we
encounter on that path. Perfection is unrealistic, and therefore, there is no
perfect man and there is no perfect man of God.
Many times people assume, or place expectations on others once
they’ve accepted God. It is this assumption that now they are supposed to
get it all right. They’re not allowed to sin, have faults, or struggle. The
minute people view it, they take it as proof they’re not serious, not truly a
believer, a hypocrite, or just playing games.
People want to discredit them.
Too many believers are too quick to judge and look down upon
someone for their lack of perfection. We know people aren’t perfect but
somehow we forget that when mistakes are made.
I want you to understand, the man God has for you will love God but
this doesn’t mean he’ll be perfect. His love of God is what needs to be in
place for you to be able to accept him into your life.
Without that foundation, not only will there be mistakes, that man will
not be aligned with you.
He’ll be someone who will struggle understanding how he needs to
pour into you, treat you, and cherish you as the blessing that God gave
him. His love of God needs to be there, but this doesn’t lead to perfect
behavior.
So how do you know if he’s a man of God? What criteria can you use
to assess a man and his genuine love for God?
The first step is to understand the difference between a man who loves
God and struggles with his flesh, versus a man who loves his flesh and
struggles with embracing God.
