Imagine you have a very precious gift. It is priceless, and it has some unique qualities: 1). You’ll never have another gift like it—you’ll only have one such gift your entire lifetime 2.) You can only give it away once. 3). Once you’ve given it away, you can never, ever get it back.
How would you treat such a gift? Would you casually give it away to someone who is not completely committed to you? Would you give it to someone who would throw it away and break your heart? Would you flush it down the toilet?
Well, we are born with such a gift: virginity. It is a special gift that you can only give to one person, one time. Once lost, it is gone forever. This gift was intended for your spouse—the one who would treasure your heart forever.
It breaks my heart to see the way this gift is treated. It seems that many young people give their virginity away before they even realize how valuable it was. They take this incredible gift and simply throw it away—what a waste!
Please consider the value of your virginity. Save it for your future spouse.
