When hearing damsel, we always hear distress. This should not be!
Here is the definition from Merriam-Webster dictionary: a) young woman: a young unmarried woman of noble birth; a noblewoman. b) girl. Nothing distressing. In fact I like the meaning.
I am a child of God. I am of nobility! I should be living as a damsel. So how should it damsel behave? Or I should say how should a damsel behave towards a man that she is interested in? Here is the list:
1. Trust & admire his manliness.
2. Trust & admire his hero nobility.
3. Trust he walks with God & that God directs his kingly heart.
4. Receive his manliness.
5. Receive who he is.
6. Receive his God-given gifts.
7. Celebrate him.
8. Allow him to make you happy.
9. Give plenty of manly adjectives.
10. Give bright eyes & fat bones with all of your greetings & sendings.
11. Speak highly of him.
It is about preferring him. When you trust that he walks with God and God directs his kingly heart, you can let go of the death grip that you might have on the relationship and enjoy the adventure ahead. The hero is always there to pursue you but a girl can be lethal and kill it in him. Try enjoying him instead of changing him. Be a Godly damsel and when you are in distress your hero will be there. This is a gentle quiet spirit at work that God calls us girls to be.
Your beauty … should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight. 1 Peter 3:3-4
