“When you chose to follow the way of purity, did you expect it to be easy? When you decided to wait for the best, did you think that waiting would be fun? Did you think that your faith would not be tested? When you decided to take the narrow path, did no one warn you that difficulties, hardship, and tears would be part of the journey, and that you would often face rejection from others and be forced to walk alone? My daughter, that which you wait for the longest you treasure the most, and through much struggle the prize is won.”

Fix your eyes on the finish line, persevere, give your all to the Master, and know that He who has called you will be faithful to do the work (1 Thess. 5:24).

“Let's use our God-given "drive" to be beautiful to remind and motivate us to seek to be beautiful in the eyes of our Heavenly bridegroom. Jesus set the ultimate example of submission for us. We are called to follow in His footsteps, and this is the pinnacle of beauty! The more like Him we are, the more beautiful we will be. Your beauty is for God's glory, not your own. So don't look to people to define beauty. Look to Jesus Christ-the One who created you, loves you, and is coming back for you as your eternal Bridegroom!”

“I'm sure that there are many people whom you know well even though you haven't dated them. You will form friendships with people just by observing them at church, family get-togethers, school activities, or by working with them in ministry opportunities. Actually, you will really get to know a young man better this way. You can see what he is truly like and how he responds in various real life situations - not just in a romantic relationship”
