Then, as now, sex seduces!
Then, as now, sex entices. Just turn on the TV and you will see sex sells,
too.
I recall reading about Bill
W, the founder of Alcoholics Anonymous. AA helped him gain victory over the
bottle. Sadly, what I read said he was never able gain a similar victory over
his sexual addiction. The seducing power of sex is in a league of its
own!
Today’s reading is a strong
reminder about the seductive power of elicit sex. How many people, political and
business leaders and even religious leaders have fallen prey to elicit sex’s
seductive call.
God is telling me….guard
your heart, guard your thoughts, guard your genitals! Guard your
eyes…pornography is so easily available on any and every screen… Guard your
eyes!
Lord, sexual
temptations are everywhere in our modern life. From innuendo in TV ads, to raw
language and even scenes in popular TV shows, to explicit pornographic channels
and internet sights… the seduction of sex is all around us. Lord, keep me pure!
Lord, keep your church pure. In Jesus’ name, I pray.
Amen.
