what's going on what's going on it's
your boy Ace metaphor and this is the
Ace of Hearts podcast listen I got a
message for you I keep getting DMS over
and over again and it'd be like how do
you know if this man is serious how do
you know if this man is worth dating how
do you know if this man is just gonna
waste your time how do you know if this
man is marriage minded and husband
material so guess what I got four ways
for you to know if this man is actually
husband material or not marriage minded
or not and here's the first way
before you can know if a man is right
for you you need to know if that man
carries himself like a husband would
before you even think about being a wife
to a man make sure that he is first a
husband does he carry himself like that
or is he spreading dick throughout the
community Willie Nelly does he not have
self-discipline is he immature in the
mind is he a man is he a boy in a man's
body sometimes these men carry
themselves as if they ain't even
qualified to be your boyfriend but here
you are pledging allegiance to this man
does this man have mentors is this man
intentional is he serious is he goal
driven does he come in your life and add
and not subtract is this man filled with
Integrity does he believe in God or
something higher than himself or is this
man just playing games
people not matter of fact men with a
husband mindset ain't got time for games
he ain't coming to your life to chase no
he's there to pursue he is serious he is
intentional this man is calculated in
his steps this man is not gonna hit you
up with a grand Rising Queen uh message
every single morning and then once you
give him sex you don't hear nothing from
him no more this is not a man like that
this man is not thinking about getting
you in his bed this man is thinking
about adding you to his life this man
has prepared a nest for you understand
that
this man has readied himself before so
the first thing I need everybody to
understand before we go forward a
marriage minded man
moves differently
a marriage-minded man understands the
word Court
Sue
he doesn't have the word game or play
in his vocabulary
this is a man that understands that he
is looking for one woman
add to his life not many women
not he's not listen he's not coming into
your life to distract you
he's coming to your life to get you
closer to your blessings and that leads
us to point number two
a man that truly is right for you a man
that is marriage minded comes in your
life and makes things easier not harder
how is a man coming in your life and
making things more difficult for you you
are adding another person to your life
and yet and still the load is getting
heavier on you this is not a man for you
a man that's marriage minded understands
that when he comes in your life even
though you may be good even though you
may be successful he is there to make
things better he is there to make things
easier although you can do it all by
yourself he is there to make sure you
don't have to he is there to be your
partner your support your biggest
cheerleader if needed he is there to be
a leader if needed he is there to serve
the family that man is not coming in
into your life under the conditions that
you give him things only no he's
thinking about reciprocity
if you got a man and the only thing he's
doing is coming to your life and adding
pain discomfort
tears infidelity that man is not
marriage minded no when a man is
marriage minded he is adding happiness
structure leadership provision he is he
is he is adding emotional availability
and security he is adding
I can communicate communication skills
he is adding listen a place for youth to
feel vulnerable enough
to bask in your femininity
this man doesn't come in your life and
make things easier have you ever heard
the phrase I Can Do Bad All By Myself
you'll never utter that with a man
that's marriage minded it has the
capabilities of a husband see here's the
thing it's one thing to plan on being a
husband or think you're ready to is
another thing to actually have your life
in order
all right has this man prepared his life
in order to receive the blessing for him
see here's the thing
oftentimes you think that your husband
is a project that you got to find a man
that ain't even qualified to be your
boyfriend and you gotta turn him into a
husband you got to you got to watch him
go from a butterfly a caterpillar into a
butterfly that you got to endure the
grow pains no a man that's husband
marriage minded and husband material
this man has prepared his life before he
even met you
a man that's marriage minded and husband
material this man has prepared his life
before he even met you he is already
ready to contribute in a meaningful way
before he even steps to you he is
already healed from his past trauma he
is already financially secure enough to
at least take care of his damn self
understand that if this man cannot
protect and provide for himself how can
he protect and provide for you
and I'm gonna say this a man is marriage
minded understands that protection and
uh provision goes goes so much further
than just Financial things I need y'all
to come here and hear me this a man that
understands that's marriage minded and
husband materials understand that
protecting and providing ain't just
about finances you need him to protect
your peace I don't care if he can
protect you physically from a burglar
that may never break into your house can
he protect you from his own lustful
desires towards people that are not you
how he gonna say I'm gonna protect you
but he's bringing demons in your house
and STDs in your house because he won't
protect himself when he go cheat and put
and break your heart in the process
oh I'm get oh oh my goodness oh my
goodness this man is calling himself a
protector and a provider because he's
only thinking it from a physical sense a
financial sense but can you provide to
her emotional security
can you provide a safe space for her to
be heard
can you provide your presence on a daily
basis inside his relationships can you
provide vows and also keep them and
protect them can you protect her from
you oftentimes y'all think protecting
that woman means protecting her from
that burglar that may never break into
the middle of the night but no she needs
protection from you you as her enemy
sometimes in that relationship
you're the only person making her cry
you're the person that's stressing her
out can you protect her from your
insecurities your jealousy your rage
your anger a ready prepared man a man as
marriage minded and husband material can
that man understand protecting and
providing is far more than just physical
it's all those little things because
it's the little things that you see on a
daily basis a man that's marriage minor
understands that the most important
things are the things you do on a daily
basis
can you love her on a daily basis
see these boys can love you
but can they love you consistently
these boys can do a flashy thing here
and there but can they do the little
things to let you know that they
thinking about you and they care about
you
can they be disciplined in the DMs
can they not embarrass you in front of
the world
a marriage-minded man
comes prepared
he comes to your life and makes things
easier
not harder
one more time he comes in your life and
he makes things easier
not harder
and you know what I forgot to do
hit the record button

how much time have I been live
and then I see it don't worry don't
worry we're gonna get some of the good
stuff again hold on two seconds
all right we back
so to recap
to recap
I need y'all to understand a few
different things
all right I need you to understand a few
different things
before a man before you even think about
being this man's girlfriend
you better make sure this man is a
husband's first you better make sure
this man carries himself as such you got
to make sure this man comes in your life
to make things easier but not harder
this man is intentional he dates with
purpose you understand that you got to
make sure this man knows what he is
looking for that's number three does he
know what he is looking for when he is
looking for a wife
does he
because a lot of people don't
a lot of people don't know what they're
looking for has this man learned himself
enough to know what it is that a capable
wife is sometimes the problem you are
having in these relationships is that
this man has found a good woman but not
the good woman for him you understand
that sometimes his man because he
doesn't know what he is actually looking
for he is experimenting with your heart
he is experimenting with your heart
yours
y'all understand me he is experimented
with your heart
so I need y'all to understand that
fundamental fact
all right
and the last thing
Facebook before I get off of here the
last thing is
how do you know if a man is marriage
minded
he actually wants it
he actually wants to be married
