in Engagement, Purity
Some of you may be wondering, “How can that be? She’s only 16! And I didn’t even think she had a boyfriend!” You’re right. I don’t have a boyfriend. I have a fiance. Let me explain. I have an arranged marriage. Yep. My Father picked out the man I’m going to marry. I don’t know who he is yet, but I have complete faith in my Father. Maybe I see my fiance every week and just don’t know it. Maybe he lives on the other side of the world. But my Father knows him and that’s enough for me. When the time comes my Father will let me know who my fiancee is. I’ll wait for him. I’ve decided to start praying for him every day. Realizing that I’m engaged has made me realized a few other things. How would my fiance feel if I flirted with other guys? How would my fiancee feel about the way I dress? Am I saving myself completely for him? How would my fiancee feel about the way I interact with other guys? You might say that sounds possessive but I beg to differ. It’s protective. My future husband wants me to save myself completely for him. I want him to be saving himself completely for me. In every aspect.
My heavenly Father, who is your heavenly Father too, also has a fiancee picked out for you. One day you will meet him or her. Will you be able to tell them you have kept yourself pure and completely for them?
