My middle-aged friend, who is a believer, laments she can’t meet Mr. Right. She has what appears to be an on-and-off-again boyfriend waiting in the wings, and since I’ve heard only her side of the relationship, I’ve given her the benefit of the doubt. However, last week I watched her as she flirted with a new acquaintance who gave her his phone number. Straight out of a junior high playbook she said, “I told him if I breakup with my boyfriend, I’ll give him a call.” Proverbs states, “Even a child is known by his actions, by whether his conduct is pure and right” (Proverbs 20:11 NIV).
