I am committed to Purity for my future mate because my Heavenly Father has lovingly instructed me to do so.
With God's Help I Will Do My Best To:
Plan my dates and outings so that I will not put myself in compromising situations.
Understand that true love really does wait.
Read God's word and seek Him daily for wisdom and strength.
Inform my family and friends about my commitment so I can be held accountable.
Trust in the Lord for His strength in my time of weakness.
Yield to the Lord's instructions, trusting that His love and plan for my life is truly the best.
Make the "True Love Waits" Pledge:
"Believing that true love waits, I make a commitment to God, myself, my family, my friends, my future mate, and my future children to a lifetime of purity including sexual abstinence from this day until the day I enter a biblical marriage relationship."
The Five Commitments of True Love Waits
To
God: Matthew 22:37 Jesus replied, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart
and with all your soul and with all your mind."
To Yourself: Matthew 22:39 "And the second is like
it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'"
To Family:
Philippians 4:5 Let your gentleness be evident
to all. The Lord is near.
To Friends: John 15:13 "Greater love has no one than
this, that he lay down his life for his friends."
To Future Mate and Children: 2 Timothy 2:22 Flee the evil
desires of youth, and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, along with those who
call on the Lord out of a pure heart
Someday
By Phillip and Natalie LaRue
I don't know if you're near or far away
But I know that I'm thinking of you today
I don't know if I even know your name
But I know I'm praying for you just the same
Someday we'll fall in love
You'll be mind and I will be yours
Our hearts will be one
And our love will ever endure
And I'll need you, and I'll want you
And I'll find you someday
Then I'll love you, then I'll hold you
Then I'll be with you always
Our love will be so strong and pure
You will make me feel like I have never felt before
You will be perfect only for me
You will make these eyes begin to see
Someday we'll fall in love
You'll be mind and I will be yours
Our hearts will be one
And our love will ever endure
Your faith for the Lord will be strong
Even though I know the wait is long
And through I'm young I still believe
That you're out there praying for me
Saved & Single

What makes you think that just because I am an attractive woman of Godly intelligence,
that I'm incomplete without a mate?
Who told you that without a man something's missing from my life?
And if so, what would that be?
Love?
I love myself, and more importantly I love the Lord.
He told me that when I delight in Him,
He will give me the desires of my heart.
Security?
I have everything I need according to His Riches in Glory.
Intimacy?
Now, how's a man going to get to know me when he doesn't even know who he is in the Lord?
See...my Father told me I'm above a Ruby's Worth
and a Gem does not seek, it is sought.
I'm single and that's all right with me.
See,
it's not that I oppose relationships
it's that I detest co-dependency.
As a woman, I know it is not my role
to chase after any man.
Esther 2:14 reads...
that I am to "wait on my king and when he's delighted in me, he will call me by my
name".
My Lord does not intend for me to be needy or desperate. I am to be Cherished,
Relished, Valued, and Honored.
It's not my job to convince him
or convict him of that.
My mate will already know it
and consistently show it.
And he will stay on his knees daily
not just to adore me
but to Praise the Lord for
the virtuous woman he has found.
So, when you see me by myself I'm not alone.
I know what I have coming to me.
I'm single and saved, and right now that's all I need to be!

Welcome to Rock for purity, where we connect youth with each other to spread one message.... fight! We live in very hard times. It is hard to do God's will in a world of casual sex, pornography, and a society that teaches sex is love. We pity this world, and we are here to prove that this is OUR VOICE, OUR BODY, AND OUR MISSION!

Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy--meditate on these things. Php. 4:8
