Over this past weekend we went to a Jack and Jill Wedding Shower. This is the way to go sometimes for a different twist to a Wedding shower. All friends and families are welcome. And my husband actually won one of the prizes for getting most correct answers!! All the other wives were encouraged!
Anyway, my heart was touched by the disire of young couples who believe in remaining pure before marriage, such as this couple. We have known this family for years and have many wonderful memories of our children and families together. Our son is near 15 and for him to see the steps taken in this couples' courtship have been very encouraging. There is a beautiful countenance they radiate to all around them and -------- innoscence. They have set up boundaries for themselves and the blessings they will have are immeasurable.
It is my hope that other's will take a stand for setting and appreciating boundaries in their lives. I believe there are many that would, but cannot stand against peer pressure. Three simple words about that: YES YOU CAN!!
We as parents should want this for our children. As for me, well I have been praying since my son was a baby for the beautiful bride that God has set aside especially for him.
Many people today are on a wrong course. I believe that to change the direction in America today, we have to strengthen our core family and values.
Bless you today as you walk alongside others in your life and those that walk alongside you.
