DATE TO SAVE.

I came across this website while reading Mark Oestricher's blog (President of Youth Specialties), and it gave 10 tips for "flirting to convert":

1. If he tells your that you are hot...
Tell him God made you hot.

2. If he wants to hold your hand...
Give him a Bible.

3. If he tries to get closer...
Tell him the Holy Spirit is wooing him.

4. If he asks to pay for dinner...
Remind him that Jesus also paid a debt He did not owe!

5. If he reaches his arm around you...
Tell him that nobody will ever be as close to you as Jesus is.
(or ask him if you instead could "lay hands" on him in prayer)

6. If he tries to kiss you...
Remind him that a kiss killed your Savior.
(and you're not ready to "speak in tongues")

7. If he asks to come inside...
Ask him if he has asked Jesus to come inside his heart.

8. If he tells you he loves you...
Tell him that Jesus loves him.

9. If he gets angry that you won't put out...
Clarify to him that W.W.J.D. does NOT mean "Who would Jesus Do."

10. After you dump him...
Tell him that Jesus Christ will never leave or forsake him.

I was thinking of buying a T-shirt from their store, but I have no idea when I could ever bring myself to wear it. I hope that it's a joke, otherwise my heart will break. I feel as though the hurt and pain of the world on my shoulders - I'm going to go to the throne of Jesus and lay them all at his feet. See you there. See you soon.
