St. James is an open supporter of teenage sexual abstinence, and has become an unofficial spokesperson for True Love Waits. The popular single “Wait For Me”, from her album Transform, encourages abstaining from sex outside of marriage. In 2000, it became the title and focus of a 46-city tour. St. James wrote the song herself while on a tour bus. Her third book, titled Wait for Me: Rediscovering the Joy of Purity in Romance, was published in 2002 and further addressed the issue. She also ardently supports the Pro-Life movement.She had a small, uncredited role in Left Behind as Kirk Cameron’s assistant.

Using Scripture, pop culture, and her own experience as a point of reference, Rebecca paints a relevant and appealing picture of the value of waiting. But Rebecca also reaches out with compassion to those who have already made mistakes and reveals the mercy and healing that God brings. The new edition of this bestseller includes: a fresh design (inside and out) with eye-catching graphics; a new introduction from Rebecca; journaling sections throughout the book; and a study guide for personal or group use.

It is great to have someone to relate to in this walk with God and it is great that she is standing for something. Somethign so important to know as a teenager in order to save you so much pain in your adult life and your memory. Unfortunately the mistakes that we make are always in our memories.

So great for Rebecca and thank you for all your flowers.

FAMILY

Psalms 68:6 says ‘God puts the solitary in family.’ I believe that is true of the Church. God takes people and puts them in a church family. I believe God created family. It is a ‘God-idea’. I believe God’s intention for family is powerful and strong. Out of family our potential can be found, our security can be established. Sadly, families can at times be a place of dysfunction and brokenness.

LOYALTY

By definition loyalty is the feeling of devotion, attachment, duty. I believe that loyalty and faithfulness are the very essence of God’s character.  His heart towards us is ever loyal, His love for us is completely heartfelt, and because of that He remains ever faithful (even when we are unfaithful towards Him).

Life is short and it is important to be planted in the right soil, so that you might prosper in life and reach your full God designed potential (Psalm 92, 3 John v2)

Psalm 145 tells of how “one generation shall tell your great works to another”, but without these wonderful qualities of loyalty and faithfulness, there is every chance that one generation won’t hang around long enough to tell another generation anything of substance.

WHY GOD

Jesus Christ came from Heaven to earth to bring “life and life more abundant” (John 10:10) and in Jeremiah 29:11,

God gives expression of His heart towards humanity -

“For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
