Wednesday Wisdom Tip: Icing on the Cake
Teach your girl: guys as the icing on the cake instead of the cake of life.
When our daughters see a relationship with a boy as an added benefit someday, instead of something they can’t live without now, the pressure releases. The revolutionize girl can choose to trust God and his timing and get off the emotional roller coaster of dating.
Pastor Kevin Gerald says, “Choice is our greatest power.”
They can choose. She can choose to focus on her relationship with Jesus now because:
A guy in her life is an added benefit, not something she can’t live without.
Your girl needs a “why” when it comes to thinking completely different about guys than her friends. While every one around her fills their days wrapped up in guys, she needs you to communicate why this is not best. Empower her to see investing in her relationship with Jesus has great benefits.
- Confidence
- Respect
- Joy
- True friends
- Peace
She can become a wiser girl and a wiser girl makes wise choices. A girl who makes wiser choices is a girl with few regrets and many blessings. Her life will have more blessings, more joy, less regrets and less heartache.
Will it be perfect? No. Bad things happen to good people sometimes. Jesus told us, “…in this world you will have trouble.” He then finished the sentence, “But take heart! I have overcome the world.”
