Well, I put it out there & the ladies have spoken…check out their comments!
"This post is the truth! I think I
may be the epitome of an independent woman. idk. I have my own crib, my
own car, I'm educated, and pursuing a second degree (May 09!). I'm
involved in my church, and there's nothing I CAN'T do for myself. I
change light bulbs, I assemble furniture, I do the handy work around
the house, and I know how to change a tire. Yeah, I can do all those
things, but there's nothing like a real gentleman – confident,
charming, and charismatic. Glue that all together with some real
Christianity, seal it with "relationship" and you've got my recipe for
a God Man (as opposed to a "good" man)."

"Pastor,
This is real talk. I hope the brothers are listening to your words of wisdom."
"…your comments/thoughts on "What do Women Really Want" is right on point
and very good, I might add. As for me, a man who is sensitive and not
demeaning is a plus. Thank you for being an example to the young and older men!"
"…as being a strong, independent
black woman I enjoy someone who can take the lead and is very confident
in his manhood. Someone who is still the traditional gentlemen and is
definitely not intimidated by the new millennium woman. Someone that
can put me in my place (so to speak…because I can be "off the chain"
sometimes) without disrespecting me nor mentally, physically or
emotionally abusing me…now that takes a real man with true
skills…LOL!"
Thanks ladies for sharing!
In a nutshell, what we need and what we REALLY want is a man who understands God’s order for our lives and where he fits into that order. Once we respect God’s Order for our lives (in our relationships, family, finances, etc.) everything else falls into place. And with that said, what we really want is to have meaningful fellowship with other believers who want the same things in their lives . . . true abundance.
