Purity also offers you a new lens through which you view life. Not only are you more able to see God with the eyes of faith, you're also more able to see Him in others....Wouldn't it be nice not only to see God in a boyfriend, but know that your boyfriend sees God in you?

The wife must love her husband as if there were no other man in the world, in much the same way as the husband should love her as if no other woman existed.

If you want a true man, you need to know what one looks like. For starters, a guy cannot be considered a man unless he treats a woman with dignity. When a boy learns how to forget himself for the good of another, he becomes a man. This transition does not occur at puberty; it comes when he learns the meaning of sacrifice.

But if you hope to find real love, look for a guy who has morals, not one who simply tolerates them.

Don't be impressed by the fact that a guy doesn't pressure you. He doesn't get any points for that. It's his duty as a gentleman. Besides, he should be encouraging you to be pure, not waiting for you to give in.

When women begin to doubt or ignore the voice of their conscience, they become their own worst enemies. They then even wonder why love seems so elusive.

Worse, when a woman insists on playing the role of messiah, she often ends up being pulled into her boyfriend's problems instead of pulling him out of them.
