True Love Waits is not only for those who are singles or members of NBSB and NGSB. It is also for individuals committed in a boy/girlfriend relationship who are both pursuing a life of purity in their lives, just like me.
It’s a great joy that God allowed me to be with someone whom I see as His precious gift. Nowadays, most young people are in a craze to get into a b/gf relationships simply because its the fad. Not knowing that it doesn’t only go with the attraction towards the other but building a commitment that will last. This is what many are missing!
God has changed my view towards relationship. “Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God-this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is-his goo, pleasing and perfect will.”
Commitment is to pledge yourself to a certain purpose. It also means practicing your views consistently. Some skip this kapag nasa relationship na kasi at times hassle, not yet ready, so to dismiss commitment becomes more problematic. It gives false hope and wrong perspective where relationship should take place.
I’ve learned that commitment is built in Christ who gives the desire to pursue purity in Him. Recently, Pauline and I made a covenant to God to keep ourselves pure inside-out until we get married and to be crazy in love with Him. We believe it is His purest intention for us and to those who are currently in a relationship. We are both reminded that our relationship is anchored to a supernatural being who knows how to manage our life best.
Add to that, we just celebrated our anniversary last October. (”,)
