1 TIMOTHY 4:12
Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.
REFERENCE: EPHESIANS 5:25, 1 CORINTHIANS 13:4-8
At every stage in any relationship, there's room to seek guidance on how to strengthen the bond. Yet, maybe because of the perfect picture we try to paint over our relationships, the questions we'd want to ask get covered in shame. Thankfully, with a community of believers and access to biblical stories, our perspective on love can be sharpened. Our spiritual GPS, the Bible, guides us. We can take a right turn into responsibility and become the person who we are looking for is looking for. It will require action. Because true love is always acting in response to the sacrificial love shown to us. We can study the patterns of Jesus to govern our actions in loving relationships. The evidence of our actions will shine through our faith and purity. Our calling is to commitment rather than convenience, and as we steady our faith and purity, God will transform the way we give and receive love.
You can work at love before you fall in love.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. —1 Corinthians 13:4-8
Purity is a lifestyle. It carries on through every relationship and life. There may be choices that society swears by, but they are capable of destroying you. They are sins that make you insecure and paranoid. But purity produces security.
It is time for a new revelation on not only purity but on how the love of God pushes us to action. This head-over-heels love is never lazy but faith-filled and inspired. Truth is, we can take part in that kind of love by allowing Christ to be the cornerstone of our relationships. He will provide us the answers to purity, faith, and love like no other. We will always have questions but just when we think the quality of our relationships will never change, God comes through. Allow God’s love to be the guide to your relationships. May his roadmap lead you to live a life of true love, and purity. Real love starts with knowing the real God and entering into relationship with him.
As you read the Bible on what it says about love, create your own roadmap of what real love looks like. Write out pit stops, avenues and streets that remind you of what it means to live out a real relationship
