I have loved wearing rings for years. I'm not sure why, I just know that my fingers feel naked without them.
(although, I like the look of my bare fingers sometimes. I haven't worn nail polish much since August.)
I wear three rings that have significance to me and my life.
Purity Ring: this is fairly obvious. I'm not going to have sex before I am married, and I will only have sex with my husband. God gave me my body. it is the temple of the Holy Spirit. I will not allow it to be defiled.
Hearts: this ring has taken on meaning in the past few months. my post about not dating and the process that got me to that point was difficult. but I believe that God has a man for me. He will show him to me in His own time. for now, God is enough. the ring reminds me that I will find him someday and we will fall in love. like, real love. with God at the center.
The Rock: I have a ring that looks like the engagement ring I want someday. I got it at Walmart for about $9. it's beautiful, even though it's tarnishing right now. I am obsessed with the idea of a beautiful wedding when the bride of Christ (the Church) will be united for Eternity with her Bridegroom. it might just be a metaphor, but I like to believe that it will be real. I have such a vivid picture in my mind of that moment. I imagine a door being opened and uniting with all the believers in walking down the aisle to meet Jesus. I am so excited for that day. I wrote a song about it. I believe that it will be glorious.
so, that's what my rings are about.
I also have a mood ring that I move around between my right thumb and my index fingers. it's what I do when I'm bored.
thanks for reading.
