Titi stared at Femi as he lit a post coital cigarette, she felt so
dirty and ashamed of herself. Just last Sunday, she had cried to God and made a
vow that she would not have sex again till her wedding night but here she was
again!
Tears welled up in her eyes, she felt God had forgiven
her too many times, she didn't feel like praying but she knew she had to stop
this sin if she would ever get right with God. She muttered "help me
Jesus" and at that moment, strength came, she stood up from the bed, wore
her clothes and told him" Femi, I am sorry I can't continue with this
relationship, this is the last time I will come to your house and the last time
we will be sleeping together, I have decided to take my walk with God
seriously"
Femi looked at her as if something was wrong with her,
then he burst out laughing, he was still laughing when she left his apartment,
she knew she had done the right thing and as she walked out of that door, she
felt so much peace like she had never felt before. She knew she couldn't do
this on her own but God's grace was sufficient for her.
Are you going through this same predicament? You are a
born again christian but your partner is not and anytime you are together,
he/she lures you to sexual sin. Don't give up on yourself because Jesus will
not give up on you. The bible says that you should come boldly to the throne of
grace and obtain help in time of need (Hebrews 4:16)
There are 3 crucial things you must do:
1. Quit that ungodly relationship: anyone who does not
move you closer to God is not your husband/ wife.
2. Associate with friends who have gone through your
struggle and are now married or are successfully abstaining from sex.
3. Filter your thoughts: the bible says in Phillipians
4:8 (NIV) whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is
pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or
praiseworthy--think about such things.
