TRUE LOVE WAITS....This is a very intimate and touchy subject, especially for parents. It is important that we discuss this topic with our children, even if they are young. Proverbs 22:6 says, "Teach your children to choose the right path, and when they are older, they will remain upon it." (NLT)
As parents, we need to make sure that our children know exactly what we expect of them in life. My father, before accepting Christ, drank and was addicted to cocaine (not at the same time). As far back as my memory goes, I can recall my father repeating over and over again to not drink or do drugs. In the same fashion, my parents also instilled in me to save myself for marriage. These values were taught to my brother and I along with doing our best in everything we do, to obtain higher education after high school, and to follow our dreams.
Even if you or your spouse were not physically pure when you were married, it does not mean that you can't teach your children to be pure when married. We always want the best for our kids, better than we had. That should pertain to the important things more than perishable things that don't really matter. The next set of devotions are going to be centered around waiting until marriage to have sex. I urge you to review each post before sharing with your family and personalize it to meet your family's needs and level.
God wants our children to know His truth. His truth includes waiting to have sex until marriage. Remember Proverbs 22:6. Your parenting will not be perfect, your children will not be perfect, but they will remember what you teach them. Do you need some proof? My husband and I were BOTH virgins when we married because our parents taught us God's law, expectations, and the importance of following these.
