Emotional Purity

I wanted to share one of my favorite books with y'all.
The Title is Emotional purity By Heather Arnel Paulsen.
You can read her blog here : http://www.emotionalpurity.blogspot.com/
She has some wonderful stuff on there !

I think this book gives very good insight as to how your emotions should be involved in a relationship.
What I liked most about this book is the unique topic.
You hear lots of information on how you should keep your self physically pure and how you should keep all physical intimacy for your marriage.
But what you rarely hear about is saving your emotions for marriage !
Just think of sharing your hopes and dreams, your deepest thoughts and desires with only ONE !
One example in the book was to look at your emotions as glue for marriage.
Think of it like a sticky note. After a while of being stuck to different surfaces it loses it's stickiness. God gave us our emotions to be able to bond with our spouse in marriage.

The author (Now married but single when she wrote this.) said she won't let herself get emotionally involved with someone until she has a commitment of their intentions. If someone expresses interest in her , her *Dad* will get to know him intimately before she does.
A great example of this concept is in the new movie " Come what may ".

The Big Leap :-)

Ok ! I have finally done it. I started a blog, after several people suggested I should get one.
Now, the big question is what will I write about ? Most of you who know me well know that although I adore reading I *really* don't care for writing very much :)
I have decided I should try and fix that and hopefully this blog can be one of the tools.
As a homeschooler and a Christian I feel like we are called to be able to express ourselves well and in different ways so, this is something I will be working on.

That and all the cool kids have blogs right ? :-P
