a womens heart

I posted this on my old myspace a while back. i ran into it again tonight so here it is...
So, you finally told her how you feel. Congratulations, you finally did it. You conquered your fear, gathered your courage, and whispered in her ear, "I love you." Good for you. Then you stood there and waited apprehensively and expectantly for her response. More than anything, you wanted to hear her say, "I love you too!" Maybe she did, and maybe she didn't, I don't know. But here's something I do know- you told her you love her because you do, and you expected to hear it back. I mean, you deserve it, don't you? You made friends with her, got the point across to her that you liked her, asked her out, took her on a few dates, bought her a few dinners and movie tickets, told her you think she's beautiful, possibly brought her some flowers, maybe even held her hand or kissed her. Finally, you told her that you love her. Now, after all of that, you deserve to have her heart and her love, right?

WRONG! Hey, mister, do you have ANY i dea what you've just asked for? You've asked for one of the most precious things in God's creation- a woman's heart. Somehow you think you deserve it because of all those nice things you did for her. Sorry, but that's not my idea of deserving. Don't get me wrong, those those things are great, and of course you should do them. However, I don't think that such easy and trivial things make you deserving of her heart. What does then, you ask? Protecting her, not only physically, but mentally and emotionally and spiritually too. Be a man and GUARD her heart, don't be a thief who tries to steal it. Be a guardian of her heart and her purity. Take care of her, Always have her best interests as your priority. Do what's right and what's best for her, even though it may cause one or both of you pain. Guide her and nurture her spiritually, ad make sure you never do anything to come between her and God. Find her inner beauty, listen to her, try to understand her, bring out only the best in her. Put her above yourself. Last, but not least, love her not only for what she does for you and how she makes you feel, but simply for who she is. Then, my friend, you may be worthy of a good woman's love.

In the book passion and purity, elizabeth elliot talks about things like this. She also said a man does not diserve the right to tell a woman he loves her until he is ready to make a commitment to her (the commitment being marriage) Sometimes i feel hopeless for the women of my generation. Its really sad that the young christian men of today dont really understand the concept of how precious a womans heart really is. They should want to guard it, protect it and keep it pure, not steal it, play games with it, and 'see what happens as we continute dating' it. It seems like its only one in a million that really virtue such a gift. Its not all the guys fault though, i do blame the majority of girls my age for not really caring about their morals and their precious heart. Its the emptiness in their heart that they feel needs to be filled with attention from guys, constant hook ups or just drawing unnessicary attention to themselves by wearing or doing unacceptable things. its only in Jesus do we find true love, acceptance, satisfaction, approval...anything. a womans heart (and soul and mind) should be so burried in God, that a man must find God to seek it. Ladies- I encourage you to bury yourselves into the heart of God. Let him romance you daily, and love on you like no other man can. Completely emerge yourself in Him.


To find a womans heart, a man must seek the Lord.



......His love is boundless
