When voicing what we all should have and want in a long-lasting relationship our number one focus should be becoming more and more like Jesus Christ rather than waiting around for someone like him to appear and sweep us off our feet first. If we sweat no effort whatsoever to transform into the angelic princess God has dreamed up inside all of us, we may find our prince never shows up and our search for love never ends. For only the guys deeply and passionately in love with Jesus will walk towards the girls whose heart's contend for the very same thing.

So what was it that made Snow White, ‘the Fairest of them all’, enabling her to capture the nation’s handsome prince? For starters, Snow White welcomed kindness, compassion and love onto every person, creature and dwarf she made contact with. She didn’t treat her seven friends in the forest as outsiders like the rest of her kingdom regarded but cared even more about each one of them in the same way Jesus did with, ‘The least of these’ (Mathew 25:40). Instead of carrying ugly and spiteful traits like her wicked stepmother, Snow White carried attractive and contagious ones that only elevated her inner and outer beauty. Her whole heart was filled with optimism, sensitivity, helpfulness, bravery, innocence and purity and as a reward she in the end was awakened with a kiss by the man of her dreams.
