"He's got to love Jesus"

 Oh I forgot to mention something. One of my coworkers was asking me why I was in such a good mood the other day, another, more observant, coworker (female) said "She just saw her boyfriend" (Beau had just come by). I blushed, couldn't help that. 

The other day this observant co worker asked me what I was looking for in a man.  I was proud of my response "He's got to love Jesus and he's got to love cats".  I have not had an opportunity to ask Beau about salvation status but he made a point of telling me he loves cats, that one of the worst things that happened to him was when a neighbor (where he used to live) killed his cat and went around bragging about it. Beau,ah,reacted.  But I would likely do the same thing and I saw that as a positive. 

So that is out in the wind that I am looking for a saved man. I make a point of not discussing faith at work although I do offer to (silently) pray for people. But that is #1.  

Ron did not act like a saved man. I want a man who will see I am having a hard time, come up to me, put his hand on my hand or arm and pray for me. I desperately want that.  I don't want an unsaved man anymore than I want an alcoholic.  

Now off to do my Bible study and practice what I preach. 👍

There are many people who claim to be saved and claim to love jesus but they are not good people.

Agreed. That's why I have said a few times at work my ideal first date would be a Bible handout. I can see how he handles rejection which is very important.

I suspect Beau would shrug, grin, move on.

Saved people still sin BTW

Yes I just have to look at how he is sinning. Porno, drugs, gambling, etc. Vs something like gossiping or being lazy.

I can handle a guy who whines a little if I ask him to mow the yard, a guy who gets drunk, cheats, and beats me are obvious no-gos.
