Girls are Like Apples on Trees. 

 The best ones are at the top of the tree. The guys don't want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling & getting hurt. Instead they get the ones from the ground that aren't as good, but easy to get. So the apples on the top think something is wrong with them when in reality they are Amazing. They have to wait for the right guy to come along, the one who is Brave enough to climb to the top of the tree. If you are willing to wait for that brave knight in shinning armor to climb to the top of the tree, then you will be blessed by the guy that is right for you. *GUYS this could go for you too. Many guys are waiting at the top for that right girl to come along and capture their heart too. Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 I've posted this before, but I always come back to it..it's just so true. Girls and guys, I know it's discouraging when you see guys or girls so often going after the wrong person or the wrong things. Take our relationship with Christ..it should be 1st in our life before ANYTHING else. He is our first love and always should be even when God does put that special someone into your life, he or she should never come before your God. He is constant He will be there when they will not be. As teens our feelings and emotions are usually all over the place and one day you may think OMG, he/she is so awesome it's all I can think about. If we are in the word of God and praying without ceasing then our first thoughts will still be of Jesus because he is our all consuming fire..the one that fills us from the inside out. Anyone else will always come second, I know a lot of teens don't want to be second in their boy/girlfriends eyes they want to be everything. I tell you if you are everything to them, then they are not seeking a holy God, they are not placing HIM as top priority in their life and your relationship will soon sink in despair, it can never be all God wants it to be. It does so often seem like guys and girls tend to go after the opposite sex that is easy to pick off the ground as this story goes, it's easy to see why..they usually flatter them, bat their eyes at them, make them feel like a million bucks because they are willing to give into any and every flirtation out there. God has a greater plan for us He has our life in His hands and He knows the one that is right for us. You may have been waiting, 'forever' it seems, but we have to be ready - spiritually, physically and mature enough to handle that kind of 'special' person in our life before He reveals it to us otherwise it will just be a passing fancy that will break your heart in the end. I've seen friends and family struggle with heartbreak to the point of depression and that is not of GOD. He wants what is best for His children. Allow Holy Spirit to guide your thoughts, your heart and your mind and ask Him to guard your thoughts, heart and mind that HE would be your first love and protect you from the enemy and all the nice looking guys/girls he puts in your path as a distraction from what Jesus wants for you. If you truly want that special guy/girl to find a place in your heart be patient and willing to wait for them, it will be worth it, I just know it will, because I know Jesus has our best interest at heart.
