If my body is not my own, then my relationship is not mine.

I recently came realize that I have been sinning without knowing it. My body does not belong to me, but the Lord, and I intentionally damaged it. After realizing the truth, it occurs to me that it has to include all aspects of my life. My future is not mine. It belongs to God.
When my boyfriend finally proposes and we get married, I will have a responsibility for his soul. I will be responsible for any of his sins that I don't call him on. As a wife it will be my job to help ensure his safe eternity. And he will have the same responsibility for mine.
I'm so glad I figured this out before he proposes. I think it's going to help prepare me to be a better wife.
I love him so much. He's such a kind and genuine man. He told me the other day that he would take a bullet for a non-chistian so that they could have a second chance at heaven. I would be heartbroken if he ever did do that, but if I lost him from that, it wouldn't be so bad, because I would know for certain that he was safely in God's arms and that he very well might have won a heart to Jesus. It hit me like a million heart shaped clouds. He just has the most beautiful soul.
I so want to be his wife. I am so grateful for these lessons preparing me before we reach the next step.
