Do you have teenagers? I have one, with another close behind. What do you tell them when you go to a small church and they wonder where they're going to meet their spouse? How do you convey to them that waiting for God is something they should do? It's so hard to get them to understand that God already has the best person in mind for their lives. It's a challenge to encourage them to work for the Lord and allow Him to decide when they're ready.
If you're in this position, there's a wonderful book out there for you! It's called Before You Meet Prince Charming by Sarah Mally. It's a story of a princess who wants to find her prince charming. She realizes that there are many available knights out there, and even some that are very interested in her, but that they may not be exactly what they seem to be.
This ficticious story will help to encourage your daughter to serve the Lord, guard their hearts from emotional attachments, and wait for God's choice of "Prince Charming" in their lives.
