Purity

After a long, and tiring weekend of the middle school sexuality retreat here on Monday, I'm still tired. I love middle schoolers really. Waiting for marriage is challenging, but I'm glad to say my friends and I are making it. Does it restrict who I date? Yes. Am I made fun of for it? Yes. but is it worth it? Definitely.

"Do not conform any longer to the patterns of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind." Romans 2:12.

I stick this verse by my heart because I think temptation now, is higher than ever. Both genders are struggling to remain pure, not to mention its not considered "cool." However, I am waiting for that day when my dad walks me down the aisle, and I can truly give myself away to the love of my life. What an accomplishment that will be. I plan on giving him my purity ring I've worn since 6th grade. Saying, hey I made a comitment to you, before I even knew you. I pray for my future husband out there, wherever he may be. I pray He is being brought up by great parents, and waiting for me.

I love hanging out with these middle schoolers. Truly. However, as someone said it I'm not there to help them with their guy problems. Were in 7th grade, so we probaly should not be dating anyway. I want to help you with your God problems. I want them to know that they are Beautifully Crafted by a Creator who will be more to them, than any guy ever will be.

"Delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your Heart" Psalms
