"Before you meet Prince Charming" by Sarah Mally. Book Study update chapter 2!

Hey Guys!
Im sorry i havent posted, with school and drivers ed next week things have been crazy!
Im updating you on chapter 2 of our book study!
Chapter 2 "Dangers With the Dating System"
One of my favorite chapters! This one talks about young people's motives behind dating.
People will often date for a fun experience now with out putting any commitment in it. I challenge you to asking yourself why do you date? Are your intentions for getting married? If they are, are you in the position to be a wife? Often times, people will date with the intentions to break up (we have to make sure to try every guy out to make sure he is "the one"), this seems like practice for divorce rather than a healthy relationship.

Make it your goal this week: Instead of flirting with guys or trying to get attention, focus on serving you siblings and parents. Dig into the Word of God, He is always there to chat with you! Ask Him how he thinks about your dating. What did He say? Make it your goal to be a servant this week!

Make sure to comment or contact me if you have any questions or prayer requests!

Before You meet Prince Charming By Sarah Mally Book study! Chapter 1 (overview)

Hi Guys! I am so happy to be starting this study on my blog for the first time! I am leading a book study with some young ladies and their mothers from our church. Im really enjoying it and I think the subject of guy/girl relationship needs to be spoken about. The Lord desires the very best man for us ladies, we need to take him at his word and have faith! Thanks for following me on this study! Please feel free to ask me questions and let me know what you think about it!


Before you meet Prince Charming by Sarah Mally book study!
Chapter 1: Desire the Very Best for Marriage .

This chapter talks about Safeguards to imbrace. So many young people waste time on boyfriends/girlfriends. We dont trust that God will bring our future spouses to us. Think of it like this, you are a Christian and you believe that Jesus was a real guy and he died on the cross, but you dont believe that he can bring Mr Right along. Its a weird cycle we go through. We have to make sure he is the right guy, so we "try people out". With this constant cycle comes broken hearts, scars and pain! The thing I always tell young ladies is this : You are so worth waiting for! God has someone very special for you! Why settle for something when God and an AWESOME person, and he waiting for the right moment to send him your way!
Teenagers want the  short excitment and pleasure in the moment, rather than waiting for an eternal partner!
I desire a great marriage when i get married. I dont know anyone who wouldnt. In order for this to happen, i want to be pure going into a marriage, so i can bring my best! On of the moms in my book study said it like this "I want to be a clean white cloth, not an dirty, ripped, and spotted cloth." The spots and rips being past relationships.
There is a section in the book where Sarah states a list of things she believes in, so you know what her background in writing the book is.
She is a Christian
She thinks boy/girl relationships are an issue
She wants to make a difference in the previous reason

Memory Verse: "Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honor to Him: for the marriage of the Lamb is com, and his wife hath made herself ready" Revelation 19:7

Let me know what you think about guy/girl relationships! What issues do you think should change?

Easy Scarf Tutorial

I took an old shirt that had some holes in it and made it into a scarf. All you need is a shirt (mine has lace on the back) and a pair of scissors.

 You want to cut right under the arms.

It should come out to look like mine! Lace and stripe scarf. Why throw away a shirt when you can re-use it! :)
By the way, I will get to the book study soon. Make sure and tune in! If you have any questions, i would love to answer some!

I just turned my old small jeans into a skirt!

Hey yall! Turn an old, too small pair of jeans into a cute skirt! I will make a tutorial later! It was really easy, it took about 2 hours (my sewing matchine was giving me greif), so you could make it even quicker!

Like I said, I will publish a tutorial shortly, this is how mine looks in the end! Be sure to comment if you have any questions!

Thanks for visiting my Blog! My goal for this is to encourage young ladies to go against the flow of society and imbrace a life of grace, modesty, and courage! I hope you enjoy!
