Practical help

When this writer has struggled with the temptation to view smut, I have noticed a lack of clear thinking that is cleared up when I re-adjust my brainwaves to God’s wisdom in Scripture’s TEACHING. When I open my Bible, I have often received a much-needed "kick in the pants" REPROOF reminding me that I have no business fooling around with dirty pictures. The Bible also provides me with an alternate plan, a course-CORRECTION, when I am tempted. And, when I read and seek to apply the Bible, it directs me into a productive, God-honoring lifestyle and I am TRAINED IN RIGHTEOUSNESS.

Tempted? Struggling? Looking for a new path to walk ABSENT porn? Avail yourself of the strength and wisdom God provides through Scripture.
