Abstinence

Abstinence abstain restrain oneself from doing or enjoying something. 1 Corinthians 6:18 Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body. I know its hard fighting temptation! We are humans and have urges and sometimes our body wants what it wants but it will be well worth it in the end. I remember abstaining from sex i struggled but the more i walked in it the easier it became i learned how to avoid putting myself in situations i just couldnt handle and i avoided.

I left my sexual lifestyle

I left my sexual lifestyle John 8:11 11 “No one, sir,” she said. “Then neither do I condemn you,” Jesus declared. “Go now and leave your life of sin.” Last week someone questioned me because i told them once about my past lifestyle. They thought that just cuz i was once that way in the past that im that way now. Those feelings i have on the things i use to do are not the same i feel guilt and shame instead of nothingness when i commit a sin. I didnt love God then. I was empty wanting love from a man. I left my lifestyle of sleeping around prostituting along time ago. I want something real. I want love. Who really wants to wonder around sinning all the time. Having sex with tons of men. Feeling dirty and low. I dont thats not who i am. Fighting your flesh 1 Corinthians 6:18 18 Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a person commits are outside the body, but whoever sins sexually, sins against their own body. Its hard im not going to lie. But its mind over matter.
