Welcome
to eXXit, the web site designed to help you stand
strong in the face of sexual temptation.
Passage:
Proverbs 13:9*
The light of the righteous
rejoices, but the lamp of the wicked goes out.
Question
What did you want to be
when you grew up? Or, if you are still young, what do
you want to be?
Practical
help
It is interesting that
virtually no child, when asked what they want to do or
be when they grow up, mention anything to do with
pornography. We dont aspire to pornography, we
settle for it. Perhaps the lamp of your vision has
grown dim. You dont look into the future with a
great deal of hope and determination to make the world
a better place anymore. Instead, maybe you spend a lot
of your time wondering what is on the next illicit Web
page.
At the end of life, when you
look back, will you be able to rejoice, or will your
story be one of missed opportunities? Will people say
of you, "He/she had such a bright future, what a shame
they never rose to their potential." Dont let
porn, or any other sinful habit, rob you of becoming a
person of significance. That light burning in your
soul is a precious gift from God. He will want to know
what you did with it when you two meet face to
face.
