Let’s face it, growing up our parents always tell us don’t do this; don’t do that, but do we always truly listen? NO. If you are like me I am a very positive person. I see the good in everyone and every situation. I am also the type that can be in a bad situation and everyone can tell me I am, but I have to see it for myself. Which is not always a good thing. My parents always told me the right man will respect you, NO MATTER what the situation is. He will not pressure you, he will not persuade you, and he will not fault you for your feelings on certain situations. My dad especially always told me “you can always find anyone to treat you like shit.” So, Girl’s bottom line the right one will NOT put you in a situation to make you change how you feel on what is important to you.
So, now you may be wondering “What’s with the Title?” So... If you have not heard the song Make Him Wait by Abby Anderson you need to look it up and listen to it now. This song speaks so much truth and so much knowledge; I had SO many mixed emotions when I heard it. We grow up in a world that normalizes all the things that are very sinful in relationships. We are constantly put in situations where “it’s easier to just do this or do that” but why? Why do we feel like we have to do certain things to “fit in” and be like everyone else? There is a verse in her song “you can’t get it back once you give yourself away” EVERY. GIRL. NEEDS. TO. HEAR. THAT. AND. HEAR. IT. AGAIN. We have to stop giving ourselves up so easily. We need to value ourselves more. We need to love ourselves more. Girls, we have to quit doing what society tells us is OK, when it isn’t. The right person would never make you think differently. Another verse in the song is “yeah a boys gonna run but a real man’s gonna stay.” THIS. IS. FACTS. Don’t let a stupid boy convince you otherwise.
Your person is out there. Love is Patient and Love is Kind (1 Corinthians 13:4-8) and your person will remind you of that. They will respect you; they will honor you, and love you and your family. It will be the little things such as him opening the door for you, or writing you a note. Your person will NOT put himself above your own morals or beliefs. One day if I am ever blessed with a daughter I will play her this song; I will remind her exactly what 1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 teaches us. Things happen, like myself I had to learn this for myself and have my own flaws, but great news there is still time to fix it, to change, and to truly view our relationships like the song states. The right man will stay, so let the boys go. Listen to the song. Truly, take it all in. Self-reflect. There is a great lesson to be learned just in this song alone. Do not let it just go in one ear and out the other, truly listen. Respect yourself y’all because I promise you the right person will do the same.
