Why I am saving myself for marriage.


                                                           1 Corinthians 13:4-8.

Love is Patient, Love is kind, It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud, it is not rude, it is not- self seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no records or wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues , they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.


This topic came to my mind today, only because I am thinking. I am thinking about many different things and what I want my future to hold and what kinds of characteristics  I want for myself. Many of my friends are not virgin's. Some of my family members are not virgins. Mostly everyone I know did not save themselves for marriage. In my eyes there is nothing wrong with that. Sometimes romance gets in the way and takes over our mind, heart and body and then it just happens. Me on the other hand, I made a promise to the Lord that I will wait for my future husband. Here is why, Sex is not something to take likely, it is not something that we should just do with everyone we can. God made it special, God made it so two people who love each other can come together and become one but also to have a child. God designed sex for two people that are in "LOVE". Many people today loose there virginity mostly in high school but for some middle school. Was it love? I truly don't believe you can love somebody in middle school or high school. Sometimes people marry there high school sweethearts which is amazing, however, some people just have a bunch of different boyfriends or girlfriends through there school career. How is that love? God says it in the book of 1 Corinthians that love is special. It is something you cannot duplicate or sugar coat. It is a serious matter and it is something that is important. It is something you feel for only one person. There is only one person on this earth that you will fall in love with and that is your husband or wife. See the problem is when people are young and they have a boyfriend or girlfriend they think it is love, so they will loose it and then want to do it more and more. But that is not love, that is your first love. There is a different between your first love and the love you will have for the rest of your life. Usually when I tell a guy I want to wait until marriage, they get annoyed with me. I usually feel disrespected because in my opinion if a guy can't wait like me then he is not where he needs to be with God and he does not respect girls. I am choosing to save myself for a guy I love, a guy that understands me. Accepts me, shows me truth. A guy that will not just do it once with me and then leave. Purity to me is very important and I don't want to be the girl that winds up pregnant at 19. I don't want to be the girl that's traveling around to different guys for pleasure. I want to be the girl that knows what she is looking for and that knows what Love is. I have never been in love. I have been in relationships that felt like love but none of them will ever compare to the love I have for my soulmate. I believe in soulmates, I believe that mine is out there somewhere. So I will wait because I have a loving father that respects me and that made me special. I do not want to reveal anything to somebody I don't love . I will never let a guy change my mind, I have already had many different men try and change my mind. However, they were not worthy of my time. God says love is great, worthy and pure. I will save my heart and my body for someone special and that is all.

Ephesians 4:2 - Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing one another in love.
