Let’s start with Adam. God went into the garden and asked him a question. Adam pointed to Eve in shame. 

Are you pointing fingers when it comes to your lust? Are you pointing to the pop up ad? To the woman at the bar? 

As you are trying to break free from lust, consider what it could look like for you to stop accusing others around you and start acknowledging what’s within you. 

You are designed out of love and for love, not lust. 

While you’re working towards sexual wholeness, remember this: God went into the garden looking for Adam and Eve in His love not because of their lust.

Highlights

Jesus takes lust seriously. And, there’s no where in His words that a man is not responsible for his own adultery.

God made our eyes for love not lust. The God-given design of our eyes is to love, to see others and love them.

Why do you blame others for your lost? Shame. Shame that we can not control ourselves, that we are so powerless in the face of beauty, that we are so weak when it comes to seeing the beauty of another’s body.

If we want to be people who begin to recognize and live with the reality that our eyes are made for love and not for lust, we have to reckon with the reality of how much shame we experience at the fact that we are so out of control, that we are so weak.
