Wait until marriage. No holding hands or hugging before marriage because that could lead to kissing!!

*gasp*

Ah, the slippery slope, we have most all slipped right down!!!

I admire her for being able to do that. I'm not saying that's necessary or what everyone should do, but many would spare themselves a LOT of problem and heartache if they did do that.
My son and daughter-in-law, who married two years ago, made that same commitment (no kissing etc.) to the Lord and to each other, it was really a beautiful thing to behold. Now their love for each other is unbelievable.

We have taught our children purity from a biblical perspective, but we did not definite it to that extent, that was their choice. In today's culture it was quite extraordinary. I believe God honors our desire to please Him, not a standard to judge others just dedication to Him.

While I believe this to be admirable and good, I don't think it is always realistic. If a couple feels this strongly and can honor this, that's great. I just feel that in this and all other aspects of one's walk with GOD, so often we present things that are part of living in a perfect world, and since we don't live in a perfect world, it causes some to feel inadequate due to their humaness.

I do support abstaining from sex before marriage.
