Have you ever really thought about how difficult it is to live in this world, but not of the world? It is so hard! I was reminded of this when my friend Jordyn shared this video with me. If you have 5 minutes to spare, please watch it!
Sexual Healing
Think about our world. Clothing stores display options that will show off women's curves. Others have wall-sized posters of muscular men without shirts on (Ironic that they are trying to sell clothes?) Check-out lines are filled with magazines that will tell us how to eat and exercise in order to look sexy, and how to act sexy to go with our look. About every TV show and movie shows us that just a kiss isn't enough; that going a bit further and a bit further yet will really give you the pleasure that you want and the thrill that you need.
And then when you get into a relationship, things get more difficult. Examples of impure relationships saturate our media and our minds. Even if one or both people claim to be Christians, one may start to pressure the other, asking to take just one more step. Because that isn't sex, so it's still OK. But one thing easily leads to another, so it's a dangerous path to journey on.
So this is for all the young adults out there, dedicated to staying pure, or those choosing to remain pure after a mistake they have made. You got this, with the help of God!
