Self Respect

 Being a young person, as all of us are at heart, I want to express the need for values in our society.  What kind of boyfriend or girlfriend would you like to be to your date?  How high have you set your standards?  Consider the fact that God is your Father and He has already set the standards for you.  That is to be pure, holy, chaste in all ways.  Your body is God's temple.  It is important for us to strive to maintain purity.  First and foremost we must seek Godly mates.  When that s done, God will provide the protection and blessings needed in our relationships  Still it is up to us to not let fleshly desires to get in the way of our need for true Love.  God is present only when we acknowledge His presence.  


When we consider our wedding night, it should be considered as the first of many nights ahead.  We don't want to enter into a relationship thinking "been there, done that."  It kind of takes away the specialness of the day.  Even if this is the second or third marriage, don't you think we owe it to our new spouse to do it right this time.  To make everything first.  the first time he/she see my body.  The first time we show our love to each other.  I can go on and on but I think you see where I am going.  When we chose the right mate, and we plan our future together, it should be done with the choice of whether we want to bring blessings or curses into our marriage.  Doing it God's way is the only way we will receive the blessings in our marriage.  Any other way can only lead to future problems.  I'm not saying  there won't be problems in a blessed marriage, God teaches us many things through the problems that come our way, but to start out with God, we will always maintain the standards He sets for us and we set for our selves.  Please don't cheapen the relationship by living by worldly standards before the marriage.  Set for yourself high standards and keep your self respect in tact.  God bless all those who are seeking a relationship.  May it always be within God's Will.
