Why You Should Worry Less About Finding Your Prince Charming
Paul C Brunson

Hello there. You. Yes, you! The one that's looking for the perfect man. The girl that's waiting for prince charming to walk up and take her breath away. The one that thinks she needs a man to fill that hole in her heart. The one that searches for the right guy in all the wrong places, yeah, I'm talking to you.

I was where you are until about four months ago. I was you until I realized that I couldn't search for the man of my dreams until I became the right woman. I was right where you are now not too long ago... Being in that place isn't fun. Being in that place wastes a lot of time. So, if you are the girl that has been searching for that one guy, stop. Stop searching right now. And let me tell you that you have bigger things ahead of you, girl.

You will not find him until you have found Him. Let me say that a different way. You will not find the right man for you until you find God. You will not find your future husband until you focus on becoming the woman that God has taken so much time to perfect. God has meticulously been working on a plan for you since before you were thought of by people on this earth. In Jeremiah 1:5, Jesus tells us that He knew us before we were formed in our mother's womb. He tells us that He set us apart before we were even born. Wow. Just take a second to think about that... Jesus' heart throbs for you and I. He wants girls like you and me to fulfill the plans that He has made for us. To the girl that is set on finding a boyfriend, please listen to me when I say that God has a plan for you.

You won't find Mr. Right until you become Mrs. Right. You won't find the good Christain man until you become the good Christain woman. Do you see a pattern here? I do. I saw that pattern for too long, and I am so thankful that the inspiring words of my dear friend Katie Bulmer stopped me from searching for a man. God helped me realize through her testimony that I needed to stop pursuing a man, and start pursuing Him. Because through my pursuing Jesus, He will lead me to a Godly man.

So, to the broken hearted girl who is continuously searching for "the perfect guy", please stop because I have found the One. And his name is Jesus. Once you find Him, I promise all else will fall into place. I know it may sound easier said than done, but it is so worth it. When you live your life for Him, He will put the right people in your life including the man of your dreams. But this time, the "man of your dreams" will be the right man.

Stop searching for him, and start pursuing Him.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
