God's Lil' Lamb Purity Vow

I have made a vow to the Lord that I will stay pure and holy until I get married. In this video, this ring symbolizes the commitment I have made with the Lord. This is a covenant between me and the Father. I am blessed with the most wonderful and faithful parents I could have asked for. They are raising me according to God's will. I will honor them with the most respect. My parents bestowed this ring to me not for showing off its beautiful looks, or to show that they got money. (Yes, I did say got.) They presented it to me as a symbol of my vow to God. It serves as a reminder that I belong to Christ. When my dad placed it on my ring finger, he told me it was to remain there until my wedding day. I found out that it serves as a reservation for my wedding ring, that's why it is worn on the left ring finger.While girls go live with their boyfriends, I am going stay pure until God sends me the love of my life.

Hope you enjoy the video, and music.

Should Christians Celebrate St. Valentine's Day

Should Christians participate in the celebration of St. Valentine's Day? Most would answer,” Why wouldn't they?” Why not, one would say, Valentine's Day is a celebration of love. People might say Valentine's Day is a celebration of love, but what kind of love?

In the Bible, Jesus says to love your neighbor as you love yourself. What kind of love should you have for your neighbor? Is it the same kind of love people share on Valentine's Day? Around Valentine's week, commercials and advertisements convince people to buy their product. Such as,"Send a special one a bouquet or a box of chocolates." If you really think about a person, send them an unexpected gift.” Do we need to name a day were we have to buy something for someone. This is not the kind of love Jesus states in the Bible. Jesus wants us to have Godly love for one another.

There are many types of love, but only one TRUE love. People share brotherly love, such as giving to the poor or sending an uplifting card to senor citizens. There is true love, and unconditional love. True love is the love a committed husband and wife share. True love is expressed through commitment or covenant with someone. Unconditional love is the love God has for us. God's love is shown through forgiveness, blessings, correction, mercy, and grace. This is the love Jesus states in the Bible.

   

Love expressed on Valentine's Day is a counterfeit love. Competition partakes in this event. Let's say you take your wife on a picnic, in you living room, by candlelight. Your friend takes his wife to an expensive restaurant. The wives might get together to see whose husband gave the best gift, or took them to the best place. Another example, let's say children in a school class compete to see who has the best gift. A child might come with a handmade card. Another might brings boxes, in the shape of a heart, full of chocolate. The first child might feel their gift is worthless, compared to others. Competition takes part in this holiday.

If you truly love someone the way God loves us, why show off on a specific day. Express your love everyday. Godly love is the only true love.

The Book of Proverbs

Last month, for each day I read one chapter of Proverbs in my Bible. The book of Proverbs speaks of wisdom and why we should desire it. Proverbs 1:7 says,"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instructions."

There is a difference between knowledge an wisdom, wisdom is understanding how to use our knowledge. Proverbs speaks of the benefits of wisdom, in Proverbs, Solomon personifies wisdom as a female who cries in the streets to reach out to people. 

"The purpose of Proverbs is to teach people wisdom and discipline, to help them understand the insights of the wise." Proverbs 1:1
