AMEN, Faithwoman! Well said!
This is one of those things where you can say "If only I'd known then, what I know now, it would have been done a WHOLE lot different!"
I can put in a "ME TOO"! on that.
I pray that there are more people out there to encourage abstinence in singles and faithfulness in marrieds.
A study of covenants would be good to teach about marriage and the relationship it has with Jesus and the church. Fascinating study that firmly set my convictions that my past behavior was WAY off track! And that we need to encourage the young people to keep ON the right track!

Fluffy,
I have prayed and asked the Lord if there is somehow he can use my brokeness to help others and to help others see what sexual sin can do to them, for him to guide me and lead me in that direction.
I have found for me it is the hardest fleshly desire to overcome. But I have been sexually pure for 4 months now ( and when I say sexually pure.. I mean no actual sex of any kind with another person).. now sexual purity is so much more than just that though.
Just like the magazine that called out to me while waiting to pay for my food in the gift shop.. the cover story.. all about finding your man's G spot.. the next article on the cover.. Great sex for you..
then right below it.. an article on . how to tell if your date will rape you.. I mean cut me a break! First you advertise how to find the man's G spot, articles about great sex.. and then one about rape.. I have to be honest.. I picked it up.. and started reading the G spot article.. after a few minutes,.. I thought what the heck am I doing! I am just torturing myself.. bad thoughts.. thoughts of where I had been.. always reading, wanting to learn about great sex.. I know where it led me.. nowhere.. oh yes maybe a few minutes of pleasure.. but now I have eternal pleasure to look forward to.. and honestly when I am walking with the Lord each moment is so much more peaceful and happier than I ever could have imagined. I put the magazine down and confessed and prayed.
I struggled last week-end big time.. I had a yearning to write about it which I will do soon.
So anyone struggling with wanting to feel loved, feel pleasure, feel satisfaction, turn to the Lord.. give him your heart, you will be so loved and feel so complete.. he is always there for you and for me, he is just waiting to be your Mr. Right.
Hugs Faithwoman
