Part 2

The whole porn thing would drive me crazy. Yes as many of the men have shared here it is because of how men are wired and such. However with all of that said, I just recently heard an awesome last 10 minutes of a message by Chip Ingram in regards to Second rate sex. He is a powerful speaker. He talked about the struggles men and women have in regards to sex and such. He talked about how affairs happen. They start with casual things and most of the time it is with someone that the person knows. He also talked about porn. I have heard and read much in regards to this. The more a person dabbles in it, the more they will be tempted to act things out. Porn is not a good thing. I know many sex therapists may argue the fact. For me it all boils down to what are my values and morals in regards to this situation and for the person I am with.

Why should any of us man or woman settle for Second Rate sex in our life? Does the Lord not want us to have the best?

I believe when one is struggling with an issue and there is open communication between the two there needs to be accountability. First and foremost we are accountable to the Lord. He knows all our hidden sins whether they be porn, untrust or many other things.

Would life not be much easier, if we took the time to have accountability?

Trust- I have always heard that one must earn our trust. This is an awesome statement and a so very true one. We however, have to have our trust in the Lord. We also earn our Trust from the Lord. As we acknowledge his Word and his laws, man he sure blesses us abundantly as I have recently found.

I have done a lot of rambling. I hope some of it has helped you. If you ever want to PM me feel free. It is a day to day walk I am on with the Lord. He is my Mr. Right!
Have a super week-end! Oh one last thing.. my therapist tells me there needs to be 3 things in a healthy relationship:

1. Does he continue to do the little things for you? Do you continue to do the little things for him?
2. Is there open communication
3. How well can the two of you resolve and come to resolution on any issues and problems in your life?

This issue may just be a great way to find out how well the two of you communicate and come to a healthy resolution!
God Bless!
