As a teenage girl, trying to live my life as Christ would want me to live, I find myself stuck in this paradigm that I can live my own life and not worry about how my future husband would feel about my relationships with other guys.
It says in: Proverbs 31:12 "She [the wife of godly character] does him [her husband] good and not evil all the days of her life."
If you think about it, she does him good ALL the days of your life. Let's see how we can apply this to OUR lives. Ready, Set, GO!
I know how hard it can be to give God the pen and let HIM write your love story. For a very long time I had trouble trusting God. It's not easy to offer up such a valuable area of your life. But I can tell you when you do, He gives you so much more then you can imagine. He gave me hope. That He was preparing someone special just for me. Someone who is a perfect match, but I have to trust Him. We all can get caught in the trap of wanting our own way. And it is very easy to take the pen away from Him, even AFTER you have given it to Him. I remember when I gave the pen of my love life to the Creator of Love. And then it was like the minute I could I took it back. Things didn't seem right when I had the pen. It wasn't supposed to feel right.
I started thinking that if God's plan and purpose for me was marriage, that the person I would one day marry was most likely somewhere on this earth. And at this very moment he was doing something. He is....alive. Have you ever thought of that? Just ponder it for a second. Don't you wonder what he or she is doing? I know I do..all the time! My mind sometimes wanders and I think, what if...he is with a girl?! You can imagine my reaction to thinking this! "What gives this girl the right to be with MY man?!!" Then I can hear God say, "Talyn, you desire purity in your husband, right?" "Of course I do!" I responded back. "Just think Talyn. If you desire purity in your husband, how much more do you think he desires purity...in you?"
