The Guy Every Girl Is Looking For

Adapted from the True Story and Movie “Pamela’s Prayer”

Pamela is a Christian and she was raised by her father after her mother died giving birth. Every night before going to bed, her father would pray with her.

Pamela never kissed or dated a guy until she was 16 years old, as her father said many times that there’s no better gift a woman could give her husband than to remain pure and share her first kiss with him at the wedding altar. She believed this until a guy named Jerry from school asks her out, and because of pressure from her friends she consented. Jerry is a very popular Christian guy, so Pamela asks her father if she could go to a basketball game with him. He said NO! She decided to disobey and go behind his back anyway. On their way home from the date, Jerry tried to kiss her but she ran away into the house. Her father was terribly disappointed in her rebellion, but they prayed together and Pamela said she would never do it again. The next morning in school, everyone was talking about Pamela and Jerry. Jerry told his friends that he kissed Pamela many times in his living room. In spite of this lie and rumors going around, Pamela was able to get through this with the help of her loving Dad.

Later on, her father, who owns a Christian film distribution, hired a boy named Frederick to help him. He was a young Christian who went to the same high school as Pamela. Frederick was a man of integrity. He became the friend of Pamela and also her father. They would go hiking together and would even celebrate holidays as a family. After graduating, Frederick decided to stay on as a fulltime employee.

It was wonderful to find out that Frederick, like Pamela and her father, had the same beliefs. He promised the Lord to reserve his first kiss for his bride. It was not long until he realized that he loved Pamela. At the end of the story, Pamela and Frederick married and shared their gift to one another on their wedding day. Her father was overjoyed that his daughter would spend the rest of her life with this man of God.

Pamela and Frederick’s story is not a fairy tale; I believe it with all my heart. It’s actually possible; we just have to make it happen. Why not wait for the best that God has reserved for you? It’s a choice. I pray you choose the best.
