I wish I had written this, but I didn't. I saw it one evening on facebook and thought it was too good not to share. This is for all you parents who have young daughters. . .I believe it was written for them. But this is also for all the young men out there too, so don't forget your sons.
Christian guy or Man of God?
Let's get this straight. There is a BIG difference between a Christian guy and a Man of God. The Christian guy might say that he loves you; but a Man of God will love God more than you.
A Christian guy might text you Bible verses or have a tattoo of them; but a Man of god will live out those verses and have them written on his heart.
A Christian guy might go to church; but a Man of God will see that his highest calling is to give Christ glory.
A Christian guy might "accidentally" compromise your virtue or purity; but a Man of God will protect it above all else.
A Christian guy might be super attractive, fun, or handsome; but a Man of God will have a beautiful heart, regardless of his looks.
A Christian guy might be content to take you out, but a Man of God will go beyond the superficial and hold you up before God in his prayers continually.
So don't settle for just a Christian guy but for a Man of God. And long to be the kind of woman of God who will attract a man like that.
I have found that a lot of people will say they are Christians but not really know what that means or entails. But one will not say they are a man of God or Woman of God without meaning it.

Let's pray the young gals and guys will turn to the Lord seeking guidance when it comes to staying pure. . .when it comes to choosing their spouse. May they allow God to lead them to their best, His best for them.
Let us pray for them all!
I appeal to you therefore, brothers,(and sisters) by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.
Romans 12:1-2
