Guard your heart

I’ve been really struggling a lot with my thoughts lately. Thoughts of not being good enough. It seems like recently all my friends have started relationships and well, I haven’t. This has lead to me asking myself daily what is wrong with me and why I’m still by myself. I know this sounds so dumb, but when you’re left by yourself a lot because all your friends are with their boyfriends, it starts to get to you. I was asked to go to a date party with some kid from one of the frats tonight and so I went. I knew this guy was like crushin’ on me hard and so I thought it would be fun. I was right, it was fun, but the Lord was tugging at my heart the whole time I was there. I knew the Lord was telling me not to compromise and not to settle because He has the best things in store for me.

I will not compromise and I will not settle.

I know You have great things in store for me.

I know Your timing is the best and that You only want to give me the best.

I intend to fall madly in love with You and to be completely satisfied in You and no one else.

I intend to sit wrapped in Your arms and be still.

I intend to guard my heart.

But when You do give me someone,

I want you to love the Lord before you love me and pursue me in the most beautiful of ways.
