The best relationships are between two people who care more about each other's good than their own momentary pleasure.

First we must understand that all of the world's deceptions flow from the belief that love is primarily for the fulfillment and comfort of the self. The world poisons love by focusing first and foremost on meeting one's own needs.

Christ taught that love is not for the fulfillment of the self but for the Glory of God and the food of others. True love is selfless. It gives; it sacrifices; it dies to its own needs.

We want to stay on the straight and narrow path and serve God, yet we continue a practice that often pulls us in the wrong direction.

The joy of intimacy is the reward of commitment.

When God knows you're ready for the responsibility of commitment, He'll reveal the right person under the right circumstances.

Having a girlfriend was no longer my greatest need. Knowing and obeying Him was . I wanted to please Him in my relationships even if it meant looking radical and foolish to other people - even if it meant kissing dating goodbye.
