Question

Dear Sheila St. John,

I have read through many of your replies especially in the teen section, and I must say was thrilled to read of your responses to these seemingly desperate young people. It is high time that professionals get back to basics in teaching young men and women that saving yourself for marriage is the best way. I was married at 19 and he was 20, (am 31 this year, and have three lovely kids) and unfortunately was a not a virgin - but my hubby was. And to this day he takes pride that I have been the only woman he has been with. In times of marriage troubles he has been adamant that we have seen it through because God kept him for me. Keep up the good responses :) Lee

Answer

Thank you for taking the time to share your life experience and providing encouragement. I realize you are not a teen, but I am going to post your response on our teen section, so that teens facing challenging choices might benefit from your lived experience. The voice of experience is a powerful testimony! Thank you for sharing your response to our website!
