I am single and have never been married, 5'8" tall (up to 6'1" in high heels), educated, professional, emotional, sensitive, reserved, introverted and chaste who believes in sexual purity in thoughts, words, and deeds. I have been saved by God's grace through my faith in Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior since I was 10. I don't drink, smoke, do drugs, gamble, curse or use the name of the Lord in vain, go to bars and night clubs or late-night parties. I have never dated in my life because dating is not biblical. Courtship is. What we have here online is developing either friendships or acquaintanceships. Back in the old days, Filipino men courted Filipino women, and it is still being practiced today by traditional couples. Although I am older now, I still prefer the old-fashioned way of courtship between a man and a woman. Men dating multiple women is not biblical. Men courting one woman is. The purpose of courtship is to get to know each other prior to a possible marriage or committed romantic relationship with a view to getting married. It also aims to weigh the decision to marry each other and prepare for marriage. Traditionally, it is the role of a male to actively "court" or "woo" a female to win her heart. Please skip my profile if you want the modern approach to pursuing a relationship with a Christian Filipina in what you believe to be "online dating. I still keep my traditional values, and I want to be pursued traditionally by one mature fruit-bearing Christian man. "Ye shall know them by their fruits..." ― Matthew 7:16-23 KJV.

I may be highly educated, but I am not materially or financially rich. I am an imperfect servant of the Lord, spiritually rich only because of Jesus. I strive to grow strong and deep in my faith and walk with Him every day. Faith is not merely a one-time event through which we were saved; rather, it’s a continuous way of life from the point of salvation forward. Ideally, the longer we live, the greater our confidence in God should become. 1 John 2:15-17 KJV says: "Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever."

For over 4 decades, I have been lovingly disciplined by our Father that's why I praise him, thank Him and give Him glory and honor for spiritually pruning me in my spiritual journey through my intimate relationship with the Lord. Pruning is not a punishment for a Christian; it is a reward. God is the vinedresser who prunes the life of everyone who abides in Christ and bears the fruit of Christ. Spiritual pruning enhances spiritual growth by removing whatever inhibits spiritual growth.

I am a spiritually and emotionally mature, fruit-bearing Baptist Christian lady who's ready to love again but waiting on my favor from the Lord to bless me with His best so that we, as a couple, may glorify Him. I am an emotional, sensitive person, an introvert who prefers quality over quantity in friendships, time and bonding. I will know you by your fruits as a Christian, and I will not depend merely on your words, claims or profession of your faith in Jesus.

Ideally, I want to be pursued by a Baptist (or Evangelical) Christian who's single and has never been married, chaste or celibate not only in deeds but in thoughts and words, taller than me, between 43-58 years of age, and has his life fully surrendered to the Lord Jesus Christ. He knows his biblical roles as a husband and does not twist or abuse the Word of God in order to benefit him in an unbiblical way. He wants to truthfully honor Christ in marriage. He's an imperfect son of the Father who bears fruits and lives to please and honor God. He's very much involved in his Baptist church's evangelism, ministry, missions, fellowship, prayer meetings, and all things of God. I want to honor God in marriage with someone I am equally yoked with, someone who has a selfless, gentle and compassionate heart and is willing to serve the Lord by serving others in whatever way the Holy Spirit leads us to do. I am willing to biblically submit as a wife and helpmeet to him who pursues the Lord and lives according to His will and purpose.
