True Love Waits

As Valentine's Day draws near I can only think of one thing to post about which is TRUE LOVE WAITS! Before I came to Christ and decided to follow him whole heartly I was awakening love before its time! I was jumping from guy to guy to guy just because I didn't want to be single. I was rushing something I wasn't ready for. I was rushing something God wasn't ready for me to have! I wasn't honoring God with my body! I was with guy after guy trying to fill a void in my life that only God could fill. I was believing I was worthless and not good enough so why does it even matter. Then I came to a point where society was telling me it was normal to be sexually active before marriage. Believing that put me in some bad situations. I thought being sexually active was the only way to keep a guy and to make him love me but boy was I wrong. It led to a lot of turmoil! I experienced heartache after heartache. I would cry and cry and cry thinking what did I do wrong? What I did wrong was believe that a man could satisfy me and love me in the way that I wanted. Let me tell you sex before marriage IS NOT worth it one bit! God designed sex for marriage and now I understand why. Its not to deprive you of something great but for you to enjoy something great with the one person God has designed for you! If you are already sexually active and you aren't married it isn't too late to stop and say let's wait until marriage. God will forgive you! We are all sinners and we all fall short (Roman 3:23)  but by God's grace we are forgiven even when we don't deserve it. It's NEVER to late to honor God with your body! He wants a relationship with you regardless of what you've done! He has a divine purpose for your life. Instead of awakening love before it's time be content being single and seeking God so when it is time for you to fall in love it's with the right person God has for you! Be patient! Awakening love before it's time will only cause heartache you don't wanna deal with. I will leave you with this verse Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you: Do not arouse or awaken love until it so desires. Song of Songs 8:4

Love,
Heather
