Yesterday was our small group's first bonding for the year. My sisters Elaine, Karyll and I had a sumptuous dinner at Mom and Tina's, a bakery joint in Makati City. Aside from the well-prepared and fresh food that we ate, it was a time of getting to know one another more.
My friend, who was heading this session, asked us to bring our favorite chocolates prior to the event. I brought a Ferrero Rocher!
"Why is Ferrero your favorite chocolate?"
I love Ferrero because it is so unique of chocolates. It is very distinctive. And I like that! Chocolates are in a way unique - they come in very unique packages. My favorite happens not only to look good but it tastes great as well.
When I was younger I would be so excited to eat one but I take my time eating it. I would start with the choco nuts layer. Then when I finished that, I will move on to the wafer layer. Then I will start on the milk chocolate. And then finally, the nut underneath it all.
That was how I treasured eating my Ferreros before.
"How is chocolate the same with women?"
Like I said chocolates are unique. They come in very unique packages and I think women are the same. They are all unique and delicious in their own way.
I think men should start seeing women as Ferreros. There is more than meets the eye of each woman. There is treasure. There is great value. When you peel off one layer, it is exciting to get to the next stage of knowing the person and uncovering every part of her value.
Women are worth knowing. Women are worth getting to know. Women are worth waiting for.
The more you unlayer a part of a woman's self, the better the relationship or the essence of her feminity becomes. That is worth pursuing.
Men should wait to uncover the layers of a woman in courtship or marriage. It is the thought of things getting better as you go along that is the sentiment of a Ferrero. It is not tasting a layer and then trying another one from another Ferrero. You just left the Ferrero you ate from barren and undesirable! That is not the idea.
Love is not the sampling of different things, taking out the covering or layers of a woman and leave her missing a layer of her self.
God's vision for women is that when they are given to the men they are to marry, they are to be whole and intact. The pleasure of getting to know the woman is reserved for the worthy man. Only the husband can truly know the experience of getting to different stages with the lady.
Women, I believe the Lord will have us wait for the right man to give the gift of ourselves to.
We cannot give a piece of one layer to a man, a piece of one layer to another and leave nothing but the barren nut for our husbands.
It is time to be wise in love. It is time to guard ourselves so that God's blessing will go to the right person.
Just as a Ferrero is covered by this wonderful gold wrapping, so does God cover us. God covers us till the right time. That is his idea. God is our spiritual covering who covers us and keeps us intact and together. Only at the time of marriage will He give you to the person to uncover. The same way a veil covers the woman in a wedding, I would like to think that that is the veil of our purity, something to be treasured. When a woman presents herself to her husband-to-be, God has kept her pure. When the man unveils a woman, it's as if she's this Ferrero, this exquisite package that is opened at the right time. It's as if the man had gained the privilege of getting to know the lovely woman a piece at a time and the years are only going to get better for the both of them.
God has many gifts for us. He gives the gift of marriage at the right season. But there are also gifts to be received in singleness. Think of the process of waiting as God's way of refining your chocolates. :-)
Guard your purity ladies. Give it only to the man God finds worthy to give your self to. That is his idea of marriage.
Hope you've gained something from the analogy of a Ferrero as it relates to love and God's timing.
I leave you with this: You are a treasure worth knowing. You are a woman worth pursuing. It is exciting to get to know you. It is a pleasure to uncover your essence of feminity one at a time.
How do you think it feels to share a chocolate Ferrero with someone? Not good right? The pleasure of knowing you is reserved for the right person.
Guard your gift to your future husbands. Guard your self.
Let God be your spiritual covering. And at the right time, let someone worthy unveil that covering. Lovelife 101 according to a lover of Ferrero.
