Passage: Matthew 6:25-27* (Jesus speaking to his disciples)

25. Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes?

26. Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?

27. Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?

Question

What's your greatest sexual concern?

 

Practical help

Many of us turn to porn because we think it satisfies our deep sexual longings. We worry that nothing else will work as well.

Jesus asks: Why worry?

Our heavenly Father looks after every one of our needs — as he does for far more helpless creatures, like birds.

Maybe we should just admit we're helpless about satisfying our physical longings and depend on God to provide not only a way out of sexual temptation but a way to be sexually content — free from smut.

When was the last time you admitted your sexual helplessness?

Consider doing so to God now.
