I am a gift from God; uniquely made up of a sound mind, body and spirit. God chose me for 2 specific purposes in mind… to help and to nurture. He bestowed within my very soul many gifts which I must discover and perfect, first to glorify Him and then, to bring encouragement to each and every soul that I encounter.
I realize that many negative influences exist within the world around me and some may view me as nothing more than a vessel to control and be used to fulfill their own sinful and lustful intentions. But, I vow this day that I will stand for Him on the very promises that proceeded from the sinless lips of the Almighty God.
Despite what others think of me, I know that I am beautiful. My parents and those that know me well, for who I am have already reassured me of this. So, don’t attempt to entice me with idle flattery and hollow proclamations of vanity. I am far more than the mere outer beauty I possess. I am fearfully and wonderfully made and I have access to every blessing and opportunity rendered by the hand of Him that made me.
And Yes, I am a female. I am a daughter of Eve and though I may have inherited my share of her imperfections, in no way am I a dog that will heed to the beckoning whistle of sinful men. So don’t call me out of my name, for I was given a name by my earthly parents, but even greater, I was given a name by God than no earthly tongue can pronounce.
I will remain pure and without spoil until the God-Fearing man that God Himself has prepared, sends him to offer me his hand, without reservation, in Holy matrimony. When he arrives, I will know him because he will demonstrate the qualities and characteristics of the Father and in turn, he will find me busy about my Father’s business.
I am aware of the fact that I am not perfect and at times I may stumble, but I vow to lift my eyes unto the hills from which cometh my help. My help is in the Lord.
Praise be to God Almighty for this great thing that He has done.
