Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we boast in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us. - Romans 5

Friends before Dating

The best thing is make friends first. Your really good friends of the same sex were discovered and not found (brought to you by C.S. Lewis). In other words, you didn't have to force it and there was a reasonable pace on your journey to being friends. With romance we tend to go so fast that we skip a billion important steps of growth and that's when damage happens. When you find that guy-friend who doesn't fake it, isn't trying to impress you, and is helping you walk with God instead of helping you drown —just like a real friend does —then consider a cup of coffee. Don't rush, do have a good time, and don't ever be afraid to tell him no. - J.S. Park
