He loves God. He's a gentleman. He makes me laugh. Should I, or shouldn't I? What do I do? I turned to my thoughts and asked, "Is he the one?" Not really knowing what the answer would be. "No." "Nuh-uh." "Not happening." "No thank you." "I don't think so." "Nah." "Negative." "Absolutely not." My brain said, and continued. "He's not the one." "What are you thinking?" "Do you want to get hurt again?" "We can't do this." "Stop right now." "You can't feel this way." The thoughts overtook my brain. So, I took a deep breath and turned to my heart and asked the same question. "Is he the one?" "Um, yes!" "Absolutely!" "You can do this!" "Follow me!" "C'mon, you got this!" My heart encouraged. "Think about how good it would feel." "Everyone else is doing it." "Don't you want to be loved?" "Let's do this!" "Believe in me." The thoughts overtook me again. One more time. I took a deep breath and asked Jesus the same question. "Is he the one?" He smiled and simply replied, "Wait my child. And trust me. In my timing the right man will come. Don't push him away, but don't move too quickly. Be best friends, until I tell you otherwise." I turned to my heart and brain, a smug smile on my face. "Sorry," I shrugged. "Jesus has spoken." I pointed to my brain. "So, I won't push people away just because I'm afraid of being hurt." I turned to my heart. "And I'm not going to follow you into doing something that Jesus said isn't right for me." I smiled at the warm feeling in my heart knowing I'd made the right choice. I slipped my hand into Jesus's, confident that he would guide me every step of the way. This was mine journey, and I knew the Lord would help me and protect me.
Hey everyone :3 I just wanted to share my opinion. Lots of girls and guys think having a boyfriend/girlfriend defines who they are. Or they think that they would be truly happy if they had one. But listen when I say this: It's God's timing. Not yours. I know it's hard to believe, but it's true. Don't follow your own mind, or your heart because it will lead you astray. Focus on God. At this age he's really the only guy you need to worry about. Don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with liking a guy and wanting to be friends or even having a crush. But when you pursue relationships that won't lead to marriage, then what's the point? Date to marry, not just to pass the time. This is something God's been showing me lately and I thought I'd share it with you! If you have any questions, feel free to ask! There's no hate against people who date <3 Signing off... -AllyAuthor- "Dance with the Lord until he lets the perfect man cut in."
