Love

         The day is finally here for some of you with special friends. I should probably write on love huh? Actually, I had a rough draft to type into here and make it better sounding, but I don't know where it is, so... bear with me as I try to recall what I wrote. Love is respect. For example if you are in a relationship, where the one partner wants to be physical, and the other partner wants to wait, then the first partner should respect the second partner and wait. "True love waits," as my best friends purity ring says. That is a well known true fact. Some people think that love is showing physical feelings. No! That's not true. Love is respect, waiting for marriage, and caring for eachother in a fashionable manor, without giving eachother a piece of your heart, unless you are compatible for marriage. God calls us to wait to be physical until you are married. It's a God given gift to be done only in marriage. So on this special day, show eachother that you love him/her, by waiting and just having a great time without refelcting on the physical attraction. But by getting to know eachother, learn her favorite flowers, learn his favortie desert or hobby. Have a great time as special friends, don't act like a married couple, because you are not yet a married couple. Wait to enjoy being a married couple at the right time. Save yourselves for the marriage bed.


          "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. Love always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perserveres. Love keeps no record of wrong."
