Are you into fairy tales at all? I'm

0:05

Lena, and this is today's single Christian.

Whether your answer is yes or no. The

0:10

reality is that our idea of love has been

0:12

greatly impacted by fairy tales.

0:14

Most girls wouldn't mind a knight in shining

0:16

armor and guys like damsels in distress.

0:19

Whether we admit it or not, most

0:21

of us are guilty of looking into the mirror and asking

0:23

that infamous question. Mirror, mirror

0:26

on the wall. Who's the prettiest of

0:28

them all? Our biggest fear, especially

0:30

if we're single, is that we won't measure up,

0:32

that we're not enough. I love

0:34

first Samuel 16 seven where God reminds

0:36

us of his truth. Don't look on his

0:39

appearance or on the height of his stature, he says,

0:41

because the Lord sees not as Nancy's

0:43

man looks on the outward appearance, but

0:45

the Lord looks on the heart. So

0:48

instead of asking the mirror what it thinks,

0:50

let's ask the Lord what he sees deep

0:52

in our hearts and trust him with our love lives.
