I am my Beloved's and He is mine.
God loves you so much. This isn't a lovey dovey type love. This isn't the love your significant other can give you, it isn't the love even your parents can give you.
God saw you and said "I will do anything for you to get into my family" he sent his SON to DIE for YOU! That is mega crazy love.
Every time you mess up, slip up, screw up, God looks at you and says "it doesn't matter, that's why I sent Christ to die on the cross. Because I love you so much."
My heart breaks for all the girls and guys who will loose their virginity today because it seems like the "right thing to do" because "we are in love" If you are one of those girls, you are worth so much more than that. Sex isn't love, Love isn't sex. This is what love is;
1 Corinthians 13:4-8
Love endures long and is patient and kind; love never is envious nor boils over with jealousy, is not boastful or vainglorious, does not display itself haughtily.
It is not conceited (arrogant and inflated with pride); it is not rude (unmannerly) and does not act unbecomingly. Love (God's love in us) does not insist on its own rights or its own way, for it is not self-seeking; it is not touchy or fretful or resentful; it takes no account of the evil done to it [it pays no attention to a suffered wrong].
It does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness, but rejoices when right and truth prevail.
Love bears up under anything and everything that comes, is ever ready to believe the best of every person, its hopes are fadeless under all circumstances, and it endures everything [without weakening].
Love never fails [never fades out or becomes obsolete or comes to an end]
This afternoon one of my friends who works at a pharmacy sent me a text saying that someone just came in to buy the morning after pill, and to pray for them. Once again my heart breaks, not because someone is taking the morning after pill, its not my place to judge for that, but because some girl is hurting enough to think that is they way to cover her guilt. I wish I could just got to her and hug and and tell her that Jesus covered that, and whether she gets pregnant or not, He has her in his hand, his unfailing love can be for her! That he is the lover of her soul!
I really don't have anything else to say, but pleas remember 2 things;
1-God loves you no matter what.
2-They don't make condoms for your heart.

Jackie, I say it again, you are the most fantastic young woman! I am blessed to know you! (kinda:-)
