A Boy Who Loves God Is Worth The Wait

The Importance Of Loving A Man Who Loves God
Treva Martin

To all the ladies, single and taken:

We all have important qualities that we look for in boys. Whether it's a good sense of humor or sarcasm, or just a boy that has a sweet smile, we all know what we're looking for. In today's society, it is almost expected that you HAVE to be in a relationship. Unfortunately, many of the young adult relationships we see today are based off of immaturity and insignificant things.

I believe that we as Christians are suppose to hold dating to a high standard. According to the Bible, the sole purpose of dating is for marriage. Why do girls waste their time dating someone for fun? Because he slid into their dm's on Twitter or Instagram? Because you need a homecoming or prom date? Because the holidays or summer is coming up? Every girl should wait until they find a man that loves Jesus before anyone or anything, including her. Then he will pursue you in a Christ-like manner. Nowadays, these young men are few and far between, but they are out there. Believe me, when you find a boy that is willing to pray over your meal in a crowded restaurant, you will thank me.

As Christians, we are called to love like Jesus loves us. In fact, we are capable of loving because he displayed perfect love for us (1 John 4:19). Every friendship and relationship needs a firm foundation to stand and build upon. What is stronger than our God's love? This starting point found in Christ is so critical when looking for the person who you will spend your life with. It is the beginning of a beautiful masterpiece. A relationship bound in Christ is strong, mature, and filled with the Lord's purest and holy love.

Men who love the Lord are a beautiful blessing sent from above.This man will amaze you with his faith and pursue your heart in the most graceful fashion. These men will pray for you and your relationship, respect you in ways other boys can't even begin to comprehend, and love you in a way that is so pure. A man with Christ in his heart will push you to become a better Christian and will hold you to the standard to be a Christian women as mentioned in Proverbs 31. His heart is full of pure intentions for you and the future of your relationship. This man will pursue the most holy and pure love there is: agape.

Trust me, men like this are worth the wait, ladies. He will continue to amaze you with his passion for the Lord and his love for you.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
