Penny Pinchers for generations.

The heart of her husband will safely trust in her. Can he trust you? I wonder if I am a good example of this to you, dear daughters. Counting and mathfacts are essential, but more essential than the trust of money, is the trust of respect. Are you going to respect him tomorrow? After the first...mistake? After the first...argument? After the second? What makes a marriage work?
Is it because, he is the football hero and she is the Homecoming Queen and they stay fit and adorable for the rest of their lives? What about the rest of us? The normal looking people.
Marriage is a comradery of hearts and souls. You are the trust of the other person and he is the trust of you. People spend alot of time relating to eachother on pseudorelational vehicles like the facebook, with no responsibility to one another. Do you have any responsibility to the people that you chat with or friend request? That is not a friendship, what you do on facebook. That is not a marriage, if it dissolves after the first...dillemma. We are all getting too comfortable with disposable relationships. We are rating people on their looks and personalities and not on their obedience to the Lord and commitment to their responsibilities.

Whether or not you have run through dozens of relationships in your teens and twenties, is no guage of your personhood. Whether or not you marry, if you are a faithful friend, sister, daughter, person; you will know fulfillment. If you are irresponsible in your relationships your griefs will overwhelm you. Beware of what you are praying for.
