What MEN really WANT from WOMEN (Part 1)

Cosmopolitan fails to really know men.
Oprah Winfrey fails to really understand men.
Women fail to really comprehend men.

Who can know men better than their one Creator and Maker?  Who can know men better than men who listen to God?  Who can know men better than women who listen to God and mature men?  Therefore it is wise to listen to God, The Origin of men, not Cosmopolitan, not Oprah, not women.

Men want three things from women:

1.  A Complimentary Companion (A best friend)
2.  Vulnerability (To be free to just be)
3.  Admiration (the look in their eyes when women are in love with men)

This is true of every man and all men, because of their purpose in God's creation: to be God's image and likeness and reflection, to be exactly like His Son.  God made men like Him in sharing God's desire for His own creation.  God desires the three things that men desire, and thus He made man like Himself.  Notice I use the word "desire" instead of need in relation to God, who has no need.  Men need these things from women, and women have their own complimentary needs from men, both being members of creation.  But God is needless, Self existent and Self sufficient.  Men and women are neither, and thus they need each other.  So in men we see a reflection of God's relation to creation.  Listen to God's very own perspective concerning men:


 The Lord God said, 
“It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.”
Genesis 2:18

These are God's words, not the man's, nor the woman's, for she is not yet a member of creation.  Among the animals, the man is alone, which shows us the man is not an animal.  And with God alone man is still alone, according to God Himself.  The man isn't on God's level; he is not God's equal.  Man is like God, but God is not like man. So in all of creation man has no companion...until God in his goodness made the woman!

The man needed someone to be with and share his all of his life with, a friend like no other, not a mother, a sister, or a brother.  He needed someone like him, though not exactly like him, someone who complimented him and who was an equal to him.  He needed this physically, soulically, and spiritually, as we will see when we explore vulnerability.
