Captivating.

Has anyone ever read the book "Captivating"? Wow is it a good book! :) I just started it today...(which I think I have a problem with going onto another book before I finish one.) But I am just into the first chapter, but as I was reading the intro, I fell in-love with the book. John and Stasi Eldredge are amazing Authors! They know how to make you feel like you are someone special.

This book is about a woman's beauty, but I will tell you for any guy reading this..Guys can read it also! My brother read it a couple years ago, and it's always good for a guy to have a look into a girl's world, so they know what makes her heart skip a beat, or how you should honestly treat a girl. In this world today, I see so many girls not being pursued by guys. -Men, STEP UP and be the man in the relationship, or even friendship. Pursue her, and show her that she is fragile.

I'm gonna share a story of something that happened to me just the other day..this friend of mine might not like this too much, but I was told that I was "precious, and needed to be cared for." (in a different way but you get the idea) :) They weren't meaning it in the way of "you can't do anything in this world" but in the way that, girls are fragile, and in a way a guy views it, we are "fine pieces of China." We need to be cared for. We need to have love, but most of the time it's not the kind of love most people think about, it's the care, and time you spend with us. It's the times you treat us differently, or give us your undivided attention. That's how girls want to see love come from guys.

This book is one I recommend for any girl or guy, but probably more for guys if anything..I know weird right? But it's only because I know us girls want a guy to understand us, and know that our hearts are fragile, and you need to treat us right. You need to treat us like we are THE most fragile thing in the world. Be our Hero, and fight for us.

Every girl in the world dreams of the day they are captivating to someone, the day the man of their dreams comes up to them, and tells them that they are beautiful, and that they're prettier than any other girl in the world. We long for that day guys. We imagine the day we have our man's love. We know waiting is the best thing to do, but it's also what you think of when you are on your adventure of waiting. You think of the day the wait will finally be up, and the day you can meet the man you will spend forever with.

I ask you all and since I am a girl I will direct this to guys..If you want to be the true Hero in a girls life, even if it's the "friend" Hero, you are in that girl's life, and who knows maybe someday God has it in your life plan to become her "everything" Hero. It's the stepping stones of life. These years of your life are the years that you can't take for granted. You need to love her, and protect her, but most importantly be her friend, be the one she can go crying to if she needs someone. You want to be in her life right? Then be her "friend" Hero right now. You have to build a friendship from the ground up anyways, you can't start in the middle where's it's possibly fun, you have to go through the hard stuff before it becomes fun. :)

MOST importantly...Rely on God. Go to God with all your problems, and lean on Him for support. (guys and girls!) :) We all NEED our Jesus in our life, and at the center! :)
