Waiting

How many people do you know who have decided to save there heart for their future spouse? If you told your friends that you weren't going to date that hot guy who asked you out because you didn't love him, would they laugh or support you? Waiting is considered old fashioned and rediculous in todays time. Why? Because culture and society tell you that it is unimportant to wait; even in something that is as important as your heart. It is expected of the average teen to give their purity away to someone, no matter whether you are planning on marrying them or not. Not only is it emotionally unhealthy to give your purity away before marriage, but also mentally and morally. Doesn't your future spouse deserve your whole heart? Think of it this way: on your wedding day, do you want to look out into the crowd of people watching you and see every man who has a piece of your heart that you told your spouse you were giving to him? Culture is spinning out of control and trying to justify sex outside of marriage, but even if you think it is just, is it good for you? Do you feel good after you give your purity away, and end up "in love" with someone else the next week because the last one dumped you? It's not too late to break out of the cultural cycle. Today is your chance to save your heart for the person who truly deserves it. Not only will you get the satisfaction of having waited and meeting a goal, but also your life with your spouse will be happier and healthier. I encourage you to think about making it your goal to wait.
