Respect........................R-E-S-P-E-C-T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Starting a new thing...................."Honest Monday." 

Today's honest Monday is RESPECT!!!!!!!!!!! Respect for you, the people you love, and for your body. First let's talk about our bodies, 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 says ""Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body" (NIV). If you think you are going to get respect from guys if you let's just say "show yourself" then the enemy is lying to you. If you put on nasty full showing clothes then you will not get respect from guys or girls. Guys may look at you, but NOT respect you. Make sure you are modest in your clothing and your body then you will get the respect you deserve! Guys attract to girls who respect their bodies. 

Now let's talk about respect for the people you love, since I am a female I will look at this towards boyfriends. You can relate this advice to whoever you want. If you want to have a serious relationship with a guy then make sure they are RESPECTFUL TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is a major thing for me especially. Whoever God has planned for me to have a relationship with and possibly marry, he MUST seek God to have my heart <3!! "A girl must be so lost in God that a guy has to seek Him to find her." My motto over this subject. The guy MUST be respectful to my parents first, then the rest of my family. My parents want the best for me and if the guy I care about isn't respectful towards them then he is NOT the man for me. Just be aware! Pray! Pray! Pray! 

Finally respect for yourself, Respect yourself and follow what Christ has in store for you. Keep Him by your side and everything else will fall into place. He makes that promise in His word. Spend quality time with Him, He wants to spend time with you. He wants you to worship Him and spread His love throughout the world. He created you for a purpose. You are not an accident! Respect yourself and trust Christ! 

Seriously everyone RESPECT is a MAJOR quality in any kind of relationship! Make sure to respect yourself, your body, and whoever you are in a relationship with respects your loved ones. A God- centered relationship is a STRONG relationship!
