If you struggle with porn, why is it a struggle?   Practical help You probably don't like to think of yourself as being subjugated to someone or something. It runs counter to your innate desire for freedom. Do you struggle with porn? Have you considered that what you may rationalize as harmless titillating entertainment is actually an involuntary response to porn's subjugating affect on you? Once porn has coaxed a dabbler to the next level the shackles clamp down. "Ah, yes. Another slave." The fact is, no matter how free you think you are, you're ultimately going to be subject to someone or something. Why not make the best of it. Today's verse offers a 'shackling' that comes with benefits that are out of this world — the peace of Christ, God's only son.
