What do you think?

So I have been thinking a lot lately about our society/culture, and how the maturity rates of students especially in elementary seem very low compared to 3rd world countries. I started with the mind set of WOW, our kids are blessed to not have to grow up so fast and are able to be kids, but then I started thinking... YES they are blessed, but are we not allowing them to reach their full potential? Think about these few things.
Mary in the Bible was around the age of 12 when she became pregnant with Jesus.
The disciples were young teenagers.
We have been told several times to not back down because we are young. (1 Tim. 4:12, Jeremiah 1)
Jesus wasn't afraid to use the youth, why are we? Why don't we let them live up to all they can be, instead we tell them they are to young to do_______. God didn't think Mary was to young at the age of 12 (around 12) to carry his son, to deal with the pain of not being married, to raise the Savior. God uses the weak, meek, selfless, to reach the masses.

So what if, just what if we learned something from the 3rd world countries who allow their kids to do all they can do, to help raise the family, and to be a benefit to society rather than an outcast.

Let me know your thoughts...

True Love Waits (rap)

Here is an intense rap I wrote today, when a friend challanged me to write how I felt about dating, when your just doing it to do it...


So there's a passion that burns deep with in my soul
And I'm not gonna stand to let it fade to a dull.
So listen up yo far and near
here's a rap I pray will wreck your heart. (wreck=changes)

You don't understand the pain that will come
when your standing with the ring before the one.
All the lust that had come from past incounters
begins to flash through your head like a new found rapture.

You think 1...2...3...4... it'll be done and out the door.
The pain that I feel will be no more.
Let me tell you the truth it won't end right then
many years to come and the pains still with in.

All the tears you cried
when you thought you were alone.
And all the words you spoke
thinking they'll never know.
The thought of love seems so far fetched
so I let him have just one small test.
Never knowing the extent of my choice I made
untill I go to give it to my husband one day.

When you say yes to a man
but don't want his love.
Your just throwing your heart back in the mud.
I tell you the truth your a daughter of a King
don't let your heart be touched by a man thats unclean.
Put your trust in your Farther thats up above
He'll guide you to the one who was found through His love.

I tell you the truth
there's a grace from above
let your heavenly Father
fill that need for true love. (spoken)
