Description:

In Acts 13:48, the Bible talks about people who were rightly disposed—basically, ready in their hearts to follow God. A rightly disposed girlfriend is like that. She’s someone who wants her life to lean in the right direction—toward God, truth, and good choices.

Bible + Science = Growth

She loves reading the Bible because it helps her know God better and shows her how to live. But she also enjoys science books. Why? Because God made the whole universe, and learning about it—whether it’s the stars, animals, or how things work—helps her see how amazing He really is. She knows God actually wants us to learn about His world.

God’s Triangle of Inclination

Think of a triangle with three strong sides. To be rightly disposed, you try to keep all three sides growing:

1. Spiritual – praying, reading the Bible, worshipping.

2. Intellectual – using your brain, asking questions, loving learning.

3. Moral – living with love, honesty, and kindness—and detesting what is bad. That means staying away from things like a sexually immoral lifestyle or being obsessed with materialism, because those only pull you away from God.

When all three sides are strong, your life stays balanced and points you closer to God.

So, a rightly disposed girlfriend is someone who’s curious, thoughtful, and loving. She loves God, loves learning, and does her best to live in a way that reflects both.
